Afternoon, All.

Just a friendly reminder:

Bitcoin was always meant to be used to purchase a cup of coffee or a can of soft drink or a candy bar:

It might make sense just to get some in case it catches on. If
enough people think the same way, that becomes a self fulfilling
prophecy. Once it gets bootstrapped, there are so many
applications if you could effortlessly pay a few cents to a
website as easily as dropping coins in a vending machine.

Yes, you're right on that of course. I wanted for that to happened so that i can now easily purchase a cup of coffee using my bitcoin as easy as that and a can of soft drink or any junk foods i really need that kind of vending machine that accepts bitcoin as a payment Cheesy

for easy buying a junk foods and drinks.. but my bitcoin is only for internet purpose because here in my country they don't accept bitcoin as a payment Cry

Im hoping for these things to be available on my country on which i could able to spend directly my bitcoin to buy a cup of coffee and other small transactions on daily life.It would be great and im jelous to those countries that do have these things.

The only shop that accepts coffee was starbucks. There are restaurants that accepts bitcoin and they also serve coffee in their menu. But vending machines is still not available it is maybe due to long confirmation of bitcoin transaction. If thats the case if you order coffee in the vending machine it will take hours before it gets credited and you will get tired of waiting.

There is a news about this vending machine in MIT.
Here. https://news.bitcoin.com/evolution-bitcoin-vending-machine/
And there is one more that is uploaded on youtube I just forgot the name of the one who posted it and it sells drinks.
I think he also made a thread here. Trying to look for it.
