huh doesn't the B in to logo stands for Big Mac. 
Hell, if they are smart enough , they could advertise it as the BTCig Mac
It would get them some free publicity, at least in the short-term.

I don't think mass public pressure is going to get McDonalds to accept bitcoin as the majority of their restaurant locations are independently owned by franchises which work out their own deals with credit card processors (and other payment processors - including potentially bitcoin related ones).
As mentioned many times above you can buy Burger King gift cards via gyft, although this is technically not the same as buying a hamburger with bitcoin

It would contribute a huge new source of potential BTC buyers, but it will also drive down the price. We have seen this same thing, when Dell/Overstock/Microsoft adopted BTC
You see a short term increase in the price, when the announcement is made to the public, and then you see a downward spiral. The reason for this :
1. The hype {good news} will increase BTC purchase from current BTC speculators and traders. They buy low and sell when it's just a little bit higher. Then the downward spiral begin again...
2. The BIG merchants, CONVERT every BTC they get, back to fiat. {Because they have to pay their bills in fiat} This increase the supply of BTC on the exchanges and the price goes down.
3. People would not just convert from fiat to BTC - There must be some incentive for them to do it. {So this does not mean immediate increase in NEW adopters}
These are just some of the reasons, why I am not happy, when I see a BIG company/merchant adopt BTC.

Even if the price goes down to $1, having more options for spending your bitcoins is always good news.
At least for people that actually use bitcoin as a currency instead of those people holding bitcoins hoping that other people actually use it as a currency.

Buy a Whopper with bitcoins:
https://www.gyft.com/buy-gift-cards/burger-king/
or a burger at Steak and Shake:
https://www.gyft.com/buy-gift-cards/steak-n-shake/
You can go into the store, order your meal, enter the total amount into your phone app. Then it gives you a gift card barcode that can be scanned.
Or did you just want McDonalds to advertise Bitcoins so the price goes up and you don't really care about using Bitcoin to actually buy something?

good food or bad food, i enjoy a big mac every once in a while. while that would be a great marketing ploy for bitcoin, it won't happen. at least not anytime soon.
Same here, mcdonalds gets a lot of hate, way too much, the food has gotten better with time, the hate is overblown. 
February 04, 2015, 12:36:16 PM
Kids say no ta drugs! macd's graph is flipping awesome for profit. macd's food is terrible please do not ask them to accept bitcoin it's not needed
February 04, 2015, 12:32:23 PM
Mc Dumb will only accept Dogecoin in the future
Bitcoin will be no more soon due to a fork into at least 2 new coins.

I hear some rumors that says Bitcoin would come to a hardfork, is that true and why? why we need a hardfork?

mcdondolds? What's that?
Let's not troll attack businesses, it might push them away, give them some incentive for accepting Bitcoin and they will do it themselves.

If you have to badger the shit out of people to accept something in order to bring it mainstream, it can't be that good of a product to start.
people will just delete their privatekeys
February 04, 2015, 07:42:36 AM
No. There are other food franchise I would rather see starting off with bitcoin. And we don't have to spam the phone line or suggestion box. It will happen some day

Go to Burger King.
Use a gyft card.
Or, stop eating McDonalds food. It might be affecting your ability to spell.
