I seem to have no problem doing other trades. But whenever trying to do a trade with BTC as payment, I get the message:

"Steam trading is temporarily unavailable or Steam is very busy, please try again later."

It's been like this for days, although I can see trades with Bitcoin only option getting bought up. So it seems not to be affecting everyone.

I have same problem too. Visitors of my shop bought a games for bitcoins. I have the trouble, these bitcoins can't be spend on dispenser.tf. Dispenser shows a message "Steam trading is temporarily unavailable or Steam is very busy, please try again later.".

Does this problem persists for you? I have seen people paying with BTC so it still works for some people?

I think it's a blockchain.info problem. They've had database issues over the past 2 days. I made a deposit over 9 hours ago that still hasn't been forwarded to the dispenser wallet.

Yes, it persists.

I don't see why it would be a blockchain.info issue. As far as I know, dispenser.tf doesn't use it. Beside, we're not talking about deposits. It's an internal transfer purchase issue.

It says "Steam trading is temporarily unavailable or Steam is very busy, please try again later." after ~2 minutes, but since others have no problem, I don't think it's a Steam issue. I can still do other types of trades and sell. Something on my account must be preventing BTC purchases from completing, causing it to timeout.
