Anything new here? Update ? Any store that already accepts 2bacco?
I did receive a pm from someone interested to accept 2bacco coins, at an uncreated website though. They said they will have the website built next month, but we will have to wait and see.
******************************************
There are two early hurdles for 2bacco coin:
1- enabling the buying of one pack of cigarettes from a local store, paying with 2bacco coins
2- enabling the buying of 3-4 cartons(the minimum order size of online cigarette websites)
paying with 2bacco coins...
One pack of smokes should be easy for us to do, it is only $8-$10 for a pack of smokes where I live,
so the exchange only needs to have that much to do that transaction.
It is a leap up to 3-4 cartons though, but the way I see it, is that it is a community project,
if enough smokers chose to buy their smokes with 2bacco coins, then there will be enough
buy support on the exchanges to support the transactions.
And those are just some starting hurdles for 2bacco coin.
***************************************************
1 pack of smokes from a local store1 pack of smokes from a local store is easy, but finding a store owner to accept 2bacco coins locally might not be as easy. The store owner would need to be aware of bitcoin and crypto somewhat, but there might be a store locally for some people out there which is like that.
Once there is payment processing for 2bacco coin, the local store owner could receive orders on the internet from local people ordering cigarettes or other things they have for sale in their store such as bread and milk etc...
The form might ask the local people if they want the order delivered, or if they want to pick it up themselves, and when will they be picking it up approximately.
The local store would ask for personal identifying information, and also have required Identification that would need to be shown in order to pick up, or receive the order.
Just show the local store owner Your acceptable ID and the store owner checks the online form/order to see if the names match up, and the store owner gives you the pack of smokes if the id matches the order.(the store owner has already been paid the 2bacco coins)
There likely is other ways to approve the order, other than showing id, maybe one of you can explain that?
********************
3-4 cartons minumum order sizeThe online store owner and the minimum 3-4 cartons is another matter altogether,
and that would likely be better explained by the store owners themselves,
how they will process orders over the internet.

Finding a more talented programmer/dev to help out with the 2bacco coin projectThere is a bounty for a programmer/dev to help out with making the 2bacco wallet more pleasing to investors and miners and smokers.
As for what the changes to the 2bacco wallet will be, that is still up in the air, I welcome feedback about that, if you have preferences you can discuss that here in the 2bacco thread.
Thank you again for everyone support of 2bacco coin,
It is really great to be able to trade 2bacco coins at Yobit.net now,
and I am optimistic that we can overcome the hurdles in our way
