Have you been living under a rock? Starbucks is a part of the consortium alongside New York Stock Exchange that is pushing Bakkt forward. It is a tier 2 solution that is right around the corner...

I don't think Electroneum has much to offer beyond its role as a gimmicky shitcoin, but since it's the "mobile-centric" shitcoin, perhaps you should provide a set-up where you credit google play/App Store accounts for electroneum.

And I don't know why you are referencing the speed of Bitcoin transactions while trying to promote Electroneum as a quicker alternative by acting as a manual payment processor?

And what would you suggest?    The hallmark of GOOD criticism is being able to provide a better alternative to the parts that are wrong.

Correct me where I am wrong,  and I will gladly incorporate your contributions,  that's what community is for.



Besides,  with the One hour payment times,  and extremely high fee.  No one is buying Coffee with bitcoin anytime soon,  and Lightning network is a long long way away,  but that's OK, Bitcoin isn't a transactional currency for little things like groceries and buying coffee. Bitcoin is the Gold standard,  the Store of value Crypto.  It's the gold in Crypto fort nox.

ETN has all the pieces to do what I need it to do,  for this test trial RIGHT now.    And is a legitimate company here in the good old United Kingdom with a doorstep and accountable leadership.

This is a really dumb idea considering Starbucks is already planning on accepting Bitcoin as a means of payment. If you want to shill Electroneum with a publicity stunt it should be one that provides a bit of substance, similar to the Bitcoin pizza guy you are imitating.

I don't mean to discourage you but how about we nation wide offer to tip in Electroneum. It will have to be in the less busy ones where the cashier can have time to ask what is that and how do you download it/use it.

Starbucks is an organization and every of it's branch are it's employees. These employees would never go out of box and out of the company briefing on accepting a random currency. If they did, it's going to the pocket of the person you talk to, not to the branch or starbucks. If you want something be done in starbucks, you should consult the head office.

Hello everyone, I've had this Idea for something I've been wishing to do with CryptoCurrency for a long time now, that the Instant Payment system that Electroneum released has made possible.


I'm thinking of seeing if I can approach a starbucks to ask one of them to trial ETN,  and make the long fabled "buy coffee at starbucks with crypto" happen.

🍮 🍩

The Offer being for them to accept ETN instant payments for coffee (And being provided fiat upfront too which I will provide,  incase they are worried about loosing from Crypto Volatility)     So they will get paid twice,   both in Fiat AND crypto

So they would make double what they normally do,   half in fiat half in crypto.....   Incentivizing the Starbucks store in question to put the small amount of effort in to make it happen.                                                            
I can provide both the Fiat and the ETN,  so no risk to them.    

(I might start this very simple at first, £100 per day for a few days,  and ramp it up to something more professional with the communitys help...  I will Provide the starbucks with a laptop setup to accept ETN instant payments for them to use,  until they are able and willing to integrate the API into their existing Terminals(20 minutes work)                                                          

Then have myself or someone else,  either a community volunteer or a Hired PR guy in store with a sign offering people  free coffee for anyone willing to install Electroneum on their phone and accept enough ETN to pay for any of what's on offer,  like £10 worth of ETN.   For them to then go to the counter and buy a coffee in ETN

I'm thinking how to do this properly,   Just thought it would be a good idea to do a  small trial first,  £100 or so worth per day once they get the API on their existing terminals,  just  as a shakedown run.     As you don't want things to go pearshaped when the media might be watching (might tip them off that the fabled "Buying Starbucks coffee with Crypto" is happening).      Then Ramp it up to maybe £500 per day for 4 days.      Spreading it out will likely be more effective.         There's no need to rush this,  I want it done well.        

                   A single day would just be a flash in the pan,  a freak event.       Where's if you spread it out,  people see it happen,  tell others,  then THEY come and see it and confirm it for themselves.    What do you gentlemen think?                    

 I'm up for debate on how to do this in the best way.  And appreciate the feedback and advice,  as It's An Idea I'm genuinely considering carrying out.   I can Provide the £2000 in ETN and Fiat for the entire experiment.      I'd like to get in contact with someone on the team (edit: already in contact now,  and they like the Idea) so I can learn what I need to know to represent ETN in a manner they see as professional,  and in line with how they want ETN to be portrayed.    They along with the community can help organise the planning.              

I can carry out the job myself if needs be,   I'd just appreciate help and advice on how to do it properly,  as I have the drive and the resources,  just not the experience yet.

I'm willing to be the "Pizza Guy"  for this experiment.
