Consider the fact that bitcoin alone is now listed in the top ten currencies in the world by the world bank and the total market capitalization of bitcoin is greater than the GDP of many African and European countries and so cryptocurrency is involved in many of the businesses in the world today which is why the demand is increasing.

Contact e-commerce websites like Amazon, and request that you want to pay with Bitcoin, Ether or any other coin you like.

It can be done by using site's feedback or contact us forms.

This way we can create demand because good e-commerce sites care about their users. And they know that the more payment methods you have the higher the conversion rate (the % of people who buy something) because some users can use only 1 method of payment. For example, some americans can only pay with Paypal while some venezuelans can only pay with Bitcoin, etc. So, if the site supports more payment methods it will convert more orders on average.

To increase the demand for implementing cryptocurrency payments in e-commerce sites we just have to request that using the contact us or feedback forms. The more people give feedback to their favorite online retailers the more people will start using bitcoin as payment method (now that we have segwit).

The more people do this the more demand for Bitcoin there will be.

Thanks to those who do that.

I'm not quite sure if this idea can increase bitcoin demand. Because in the first place, people who have not a single idea about btc will just chose cash/credit cards for payment on their purchases. The best way to increase demand is spread the word and educate people about cryptocurrency or bitcoin to be specific. How it works and what are its uses and advantages.

They're not going to do it with the current state of the cryptocurrency user base. There's too few of us, and even fewer are willing to actually spend Bitcoin. Bitcoin has massive potential for growth, fiat doesn't. It just makes much more sense to spend fiat the way things are now.

I like this idea, congratulates.
We a group of friends also consider this a while before but our issue was the fees on bitcoin or altcoins.
If you can solve this matter then it would be a rocket accelerator.

The easiest way is to make it legal, or create a platform which will allow for instant exchange of BTC into state approved/accepted currency.

If this is accepted and it is chosen as a form of payment. Bitcoin will have a new direction and its value will grow faster and faster.

i think the most important thing is that the government should admit the legality of bitcoin, if this be achieved, the demand will be unbelievable huge, and where there is popularity flow, there is business, then it will be a virtuous circle

Since more experienced members say that this topic is discussed many times before and we see no ability to pay with BTC or altcoins on Amazon, we should think how to get it without Amazon.

Agree. I guess there should be many ways to make it possible without Amazon help. Since there is no restriction that delivery address should be same as cardholder address there is no need to pay Amazon directly. I think the app with cryptocurrency wallet inside could be able to pay Amazon from the app's owner account with fiat and after that charge its user with btc (or altcoin).

I'm not a developer, but I'm sure it's possible.

Many people holding it seem to be in the hopes that more people buy into it and in turn increase its valuation and don't really seem to care to use it as currency anyway. Just how it is at the moment.

The fees as mentioned are definitely a huge hurdle for its adoption as currency.
First of all we should promote bitcoin in our respective communities. Get the people aware of bitcoin. Then tell them the advantages and benefits of bitcoin, and the most important thing is the profit.
If the people all over the world came to know that investing in bitcoin is more profitable than any other business in the world then they will definitely invest in bitcoin because everyone wants to make money.

Don't force bitcoin like that, it's still pretty unstable and the audience is not so major. It's a good thing that websited like steam have accepted bitcoin. Instead of sending e-mails to businesses to accpet bitcoin, try getting more peoplw around you to use bitcoin, that's how the demand will rise and with it more businesses accepting it.

I think that the only way to increase the demand is by adapting bitcoin to many services, maybe if we can add bitcoin to amazon/ebay/apple stores it would be much easier for "old customed" people to start learning about bitcoin, and they will feel so attracted that they will buy it.
And this is how the demand will rise, the same will apply if it is promotioned on the TV, or in radios, or maybe in some spots over the streets.

You look like new to the forum. This idea has already been discussed quite many times but the problem that persist is the transaction fees and highly volatile prices. Bitcoin prices sometimes fluctuate by 1000$ a day. How are they going to change prices of their products everyday? Moreover for such network to prevail they have to pay their dealers too with bitcoins.

Exactly right say, I agree with you. It is not possible to add Bitcoin in Amazon's payment gateway until the Bitcoin price becomes stable. Bitcoin price always pumps and dumps. That's you they can't balance between product price and Bitcoin price.

As with any new technology, there is an adoption curve. Bitcoin is following that curve very well, It is supposed to reach a new peak in 2020.

Until then we should educate ourselves and our friends and family about the uses of Bitcoin and other crypto.

This is a good way to increase the demand for Bitcoin but this is too specific. The main though here is to spread awareness and acceptance but it is not limited to Amazon or any other online shop. Though this is a step, but let us not limit ourselves here. We could use social media to spread the words of Satoshi (already happening), Media exposure (already happening), personal talking to people about Bitcoin (only few people are doing this).

I think it is easy. Increase the market capacity of bitcoin I mean the approach of people should be easy and the acceptance everywhere, transfer should be made in seconds and no transaction fee, install bitcoin ATM machines everywhere in the world, so that anybody from any country should be able to withdraw his requested amount from anywhere he wants and make it secure.

Easy is not the question here. Effectiveness may not even be the question. Bitcoin's strength lies in its community being its most vocal advocates, being its loudest supporters. I think its growing success is the result of organic adoption. Even if you look back at the major retailers and payment services who've accepted Bitcoin in one way or other, it didn't lead to a massive surge of sales from Bitcoin.

It has been relatively easy to accept Bitcoin (albeit through 3rd party processors like Coinbase) but until people are first convinced that Bitcoin is their choice of alternative currency, you won't drive natural adoption. It's got to happen the other way around. When retailers and major financial movers see that they are excluding a large group of users, then they will adopt it.

I would be happy to submit a request to Amazon. Do you have a link to a contact page on Amazon where we can enter our request?

Even better: What if you made a template for us and we could just copy/paste it to make it easier for us?

Alternatively, we could start a [Suspicious link removed]. I think it could have a chance to spread awareness, especially if we can get it on Reddit somehow.

Yep, that's a great idea. I'll do a site listing top online retailers, and instructions on how to contact them, and what to write. For example, Amazon has hidden its contact form several levels deep and its not easy to find. I'm quite busy but will try to do the site in 3-4 days.
