When it takes 30,000 Satoshi to get One Dollar USD I don't see how anyone could consider that profitable.
Well, dealing with Satoshi -pennies- is not that attractive.
However nowadays many sites pay the same amounts they do with USD converted to BTC at the current price.
This has helped me make some extra value of my funds just by making well timed deposits and cashouts in GPT programs.
For example, depositing BTC to USD when the BTC price is high, then cashing out from USD to BTC when the BTC price is low.
This method increases our ROI, thus making even simple transactions more profitable for us.
Just by having Bitcoin as an option IMHO makes a program more attractive nowadays, at least because unlike PayPal we know that it won't be suddenly removed overnight.. and with the price fluctuation we have an extra probability to earn a bit more..
