is there any place you guys have been staples stores that accept payment using bitcoin, because I had to be pioneered, may be slightly users because not many people know, hopefully this will be so many people using bitcoin as a means of transaction


you do realized by now that the price of bitcoin is very volatile by the seconds

how could you possibly pay by bitcoin?

getting redbull from 7-11 price $1

at counter $1.2

waiting to pay $1.5

sorry I mean, not shop online, but offline, but per to per method of payment, so they are spending runs out how many transactions on the spot

In my country there are local merchant accept bitcoin, it's called bitislands: http://bitislands.com actually not for really daily needs, it's specifically merchandice and things for traveling needs.
In my around area, there are a mechanic shop accept bitcoin. But the uses is very rare comparing to fiat transaction, it's because the lack knowledge common people about bitcoin.

bitcoin is just code.

it has no voice, it has no arms and legs.

bitcoin cannot walk into YOUR local shop and tell YOUR local shops manager all about bitcoin.
if you want YOUR local town to start accepting bitcoin, YOU have to try talking to shops to accept it.

dont sit on YOUR hands waiting for the code to do something. or for someone from bitpay/coinbase to specially travel to YOUR town to do the footwork for you.

if YOU want it, YOU need to ask for it

thank you for your opinion, it was a good insight for me, once again not like that I mean, around where I live there are a few people who postscript is user bitcoin, and now I've opened a store staples for daily needs so I took the initiative to accept bitcoin payments from their use, in addition to iotu also includes promo for others perhaps fitting passing, can stop

"brick and mortar" stores that take bitcoin are rare right now. The only way this will change is if they hear it from customers. Try asking at the places you shop. You may be surprised at how open small business is to accepting bitcoin. Especially when it is such a cheap thing to offer. If they are afraid of bitcoin because it is complex, show them payment processors like bitpay.com .

Contact your local Bitcoin exchanges, they always negotiate with payment processors and local merchants to accept bitcoins. My local exchange has

a list on their site with all the local businesses that accept Bitcoin. They also work with Payment processors to increase the list of services and local

merchants. Most of these services do not even know that they dealing with Bitcoin.. Wink .... They convert the bitcoins to fiat.  Grin

a brilliant idea, this is the first time I see someone open a shop staple, but could use bitcoin payments, very rarely, maybe many use bitcoin as a means of transaction

The best site I know about Bitcoin stores worldwide is http://coinmap.org.

Unfortunately, they do not check regularly if the stores are still available and still accepting Bitcoin - they should really implement such a system, it should be easy (e.g. with e-mail notifications). So the end user must check out if Bitcoin payment is still available.

There are two other well-known lists:

https://99bitcoins.com/who-accepts-bitcoins-payment-companies-stores-take-bitcoins/

http://spendbitcoins.com/places/ (a Coinmap competitor, but relatively few businesses listed)


sorry I mean, not shop online, but offline, but per to per method of payment, so they are spending runs out how many transactions on the spot

for offline shop we nee to know where you live, you need to look in your local area, but if you want to buy stuff like foods and so, it will be not that easy, bitcoin is still not that adopted to have mini market selling goods for bitcoin in real life

in my experience there is always services if there is demand. and in case of bitcoin the reason why there aren't such shops can be two things:
- people don't want to spend bitcoin because it is their investment and want to trade it only
- people want to spend it but they want shops to accept bitcoin and then they spend. to these people i say you have to ask the shops to accept bitcoin before they do it.

in time if more people start wanting to spend bitcoin and show this desire to the merchants, we can buy anything with bitcoin.

Here in my place, you can buy almost anything with BTCBTCBTC but only via gift cards.

That aside, BTCBTCBTC debit cards are the way to go.

I only know that 7/11 on my country are just like exchange sites because they are not accepting bitcoin as a payment they are just exchanging your local currency to bitcoin but it still useful to us who wants to do transactions in the internet aside from using paypal which is we need to have credit card or ATM card that has link to paypal.

I also don't have any store nearby which accept bitcoin as payment method so there are only two option for me either to load bitcoin in my bitcoin debit card and use it just like visa card or exchange bitcoin to cash and buy anything with that cash.
If you are living in brazil i think they have many stores are accepting bitcoin and 20 stores  in paris also accepting bitcoin as payment but here in my country There is still no store nearby that i can use bitcoin.. but i hope that this year there is a new news even one stores are accepting bitcoin as payment ..like 7/11 this company they are accepting payment for depositing or reloading my bitcoin wallet but they are still not accepting it in their business..

There are places you could able to use your bitcoin which you could directly use it but its not available anywhere because it does depend on which country does bitcoin adoption is high.If theres nothing available on your place there are still bitcoin online shops but i dont trust one to purchase online and its better to exchange your bitcoins to fiat as of now.

I don't think you are going to find much in real life as in physical shops. There should be a website around with a google maps api and then all the physical location spots listed there.

There are some niche places specially in big cities where you may be able to spend some BTC but it's still very limited in offer.

I do not think you will find a lot in real life as in physical stores. There should be sites around the fire google maps and then all of a physical location is listed there.

There are several places a special niche in the big cities where you might be able to spend BTC but it was still very limited in supply.

I mean like, the plan no promotion through social media
of course, complete with all the instructions, but no delivery order

We are definitely not there yet but we will eventually get there , with some effort and work. Blockpay.ch development is still active and I'm very optimistic about it. This should bring BTCitcoin and other digital currencies to hotels , restaurants , groceries , Vending / Kiosk and much more. Pre-ICO finished and I suspect the ICO should take place in 2017 , probably soon.

Thanks for sharing buddy, I've see coinmap before but not the other two. They'll be of use to me & no doubt many of the community here.


Thanks for dropping by and post a thread to me, in fact I mean to local only, so let me get to know a lot of people around bitcoin
