I wonder if it can be  possible in Europe or in Russia.  However paying with BTC for coffee isn't that cool, because comissions are so high.  Apparently we have to implement another crypto for such payments.

I really like the idea. I'm studying now for my new local Cafe business that would consider Cryptocurrency as one of the mode of payment for my products and services in order that people will be able to understand what Cryptocurrency is all about.
Bitcoin, Altcoin, Blockchain and Cryptocurrency are our future of money and out monetary system that will eliminate to much effort on handling our assets and this is the best time show then that the world will be transforming into cashless payment and trading.

Yes it is a great idea to be able to spend your crypto currencies for everyday items whether large or small, but you are still thinking inside the box trying to get businesses to adopt Bitcoin payments. I received my Crypto Debit card last month, I can spend in millions of locations anywhere in the world that accepts mastercard and I can choose from 8 currencies what I wat to pay with.

Have a look at Centra it will solve all the acceptance issues we have to date and there are zero transaction fees.

More businesses are accepting cryptocurrency as a payment for their product especially in food and beverage section. In canada KFC are accepting Bitcoin as a payment and now there is a news about Starbucks planing to use blockchain technology and want to make their own coin that can be use to buy cup of coffee.

i believe this is good news for uses of cryptocurrency, which is the uses of cryptocurrency as payment would be realize in our future of transaction.
"Bitcoins are not legal currencies, but may be a substitute for cash in the future," said Starbucks executive chairman. And if in the future some applications are available to consumers, cash will be digitized. I also hope this happens, a world without cash is wonderful.

There was a thread that said McDonald's would do it now KFC. It would be good if this happens. I'm glad Starbucks wants to do it and even codac are getting on board the crypro train. These are big brands so it should be good. I wonder how it will effect the bitcoin price?

This is the truly the year where we see some major companies change their stance on cryptocurrency payments. Starbucks won't take Bitcoin now, but we can almost be certain that with the Lightning update, concerns over daily micro-payments clogging the blocks won't be an issue anymore. Now the real question is when will Dunkin Donuts start accepting and that's when we've made it Cheesy

Sounds great! buying coffee with cryptocurrency? It means the industry becoming pupular and supported by business establishments and it means the acceptance is becoming wider and eventually it could be used regularly also as payment method to many, it will help lessen the hassle also, it contributes convenience to payment system because aside from paying cash or paying credit cards, the cryptocurrency could be done too, so more choices the better way of life😃

it's a good news. More and more companies accept and participate in cryptocurrency.
This decade is babyhood of cryptocurrency. So it's reasonable to believe that cryptocurrency will take significant role in society in next decade.

I have some doubts about the Starbucks coin. If they need lower transaction fee and fastest transactions then they need to wait for the lightning network release, then Bitcoin will be totaly suitable for the micropayments. Issuing a new coin will be a bad decision because altcoins are more likely to be more volatile and can easily make over 50% change just for one day. In this case your money can devaluate on your way from home to he coffeeshop. They need either to create electronic payment system that can be funded with crypto or just start accepting already established coins.

yes this is good news for criptocurrency users. But I think it will be difficult to realize due to regulatory issues in various countries. one of Indonesia that prohibits transactions using cryptocurrency for various reasons.

This is good sign for cryptocurrency market so the community of cryptocurrency and blockchain will be bigger because many adoption of it. In my country Indonesia also there are start ups that development platform which the user able to buy good and service by cryptocurrency easyly, and also buy and sell any crypto just using mobile app with easy step so newcomer in crypto will be easy to do it.

isn't it great? we're finally seeing adoption of crypto for business. i think it's pretty significant that the ceo of starbucks said bitcoin wouldn't be accepted there, because he didn't ever believe in its potential for payments. Raiblocks has been gaining steam for payments, recently headphones .com started accepting payments in XRB. i've also seen some websites move away from BTC and accept only ETH or LTC.
The idea is pretty unique. I'd purchase something with Bitcoin if I was within that area. The whole fact that people are using Bitcoin is excellent.
