BTC to the MOON in 2019

Quote from: blockman on December 26, 2022, 05:53:11 PM

We can't blame those that still have their eyebrows raised for bitcoin and thinks that it's a scam or nonsense thing on the internet. They'll be left behind don't worry and for the actions that they do right now, it's not going to be worth it until they start making questions to themselves and they'll have the idea that they should have invested earlier.

Besides, they never know what is a scam for them. They only just make assumptions but actually, they don't have an idea about Bitcoin in the first place as they just rely on what they heard online or rumors from their friends. But I see that some people are able to change the outlook of Bitcoin from these people who say it was a scam and proved to them that they are wrong. We can leave them anyway, sooner they will find it wrong by themselves.

Just like what OP does, it is a need for us to move and show to the public that Bitcoin is another form of currency and has to be accepted in all establishments in the future.

Alot said this was done with an intention to fish merits?? I dunno... I can't vouch for anybody, but I'm seeing her to be more realistic here.
It's not really doing any tremendous impact since it ain't generally accepted as a MEDIUM of exchange though but, it's gonna go a long way in giving apathetic customers -- the guts to venture in it.... AFAIK, no customer would confirm a trade in Bitcoin without having an idea or even getting into it at first. Except you've got alot of BTC users there, you're not gonna be having this everytime.
Congrats....

Exactly, you understand the part where no one will be willing to trade what they don't understand 🤦🏼‍♀️.

I see some comments saying I only have three, it took me months to make sure I teach them what they need to know about crypto and Bitcoin before investing their money and also the benefits that comes with it when holding. I am not in rush to have many people as possible, it's not thats easy.

Great job right there, I've seen an increasing number of people in this community who's into business and willing to accept Bitcoin as a mode of payment. These are all well-appreciated from our fellow Bitcoiners in this community.
It would also be great if you can also share your products in this community, like you for example, you're a fashion designer, you might wanna post some of your best designs and sell it for a fraction of Bitcoin. Who knows, someone in here might get interested, at least you're in the perfect place to find such target market and expand the reach of your business online.

You've done a great job. You not only made Bitcoin a real-life currency, you also taught others what it actually is. And your 3 customers are a testament of your success. Congratulations! Way to go!

Anyway, to be frank, why would I be paying in Bitcoin rather than in straight cash? What's in it for me? If I pay in cash, that's hassle-free, instant, and so on.

I think giving even a small discount might entice people to choose Bitcoin over fiat. So, instead of just putting up 'Bitcoin accepted here', it might be better to put up '5% discount for those who pay in Bitcoin'. Well, that's if you're willing to let go of a small slice of your revenue for Bitcoin payments' sake.

Crypto Swap Exchange

Would be interesting to know how many customers per month request paying in Bitcoin. I always believed we are actually a very small community, smaller than we even imagine. Whenever I go to a shop that mentions they accept Bitcoin payments I feel like I have been the first in the last year to even contemplate it.

Payment Gateway Allows Recurring Payments

I think this is indeed an achievement worth appreciating in the effort to develop the bitcoin community and spread awareness about bitcoin insights. Accepting payments with bitcoins can attract the curiosity of your store's customers. those who are not familiar with bitcoin will definitely start asking about bitcoin and how it is used. I congratulate you and wish you more success in your business.

Maybe it's always difficult when we're about to start something and sometimes it won't be very smooth when we start something. That's why we need a process. And to make the process effective and efficient to run, then there are some notes that you need to do
- Do a wider notification about the use of Bitcoin at your merchant.
- Also do research on your surroundings and whether they are already familiar with Bitcoin or not.
- Even if it's only a few people, however, keep making notifications that you accept Bitcoin as a means of payment so that later more and more people will know about Bitcoin and maybe learn about it.

It's not easy, but the process needs to be tried, especially when you have had this desire for a long time and now you are starting to realize it.

Signature space for rent

Excellent work, which should be respected. It makes no difference right now because you only have three customers who pay in Bitcoin. A lot is written on the Bitcoin embracing sign board. Many clients would seek clarification about it and become interested in Bitcoin. You could teach them or they could do their own research on the internet. However, you are directly adapting Bitcoin. It would undoubtedly benefit your business at times, much like free advertising. People will talk amongst themselves about your business. I hope Bitcoin is legal in your jurisdiction and that you will have no legal problems. Best wishes.

Congratulations dear, people like you are the reason why the government have no choice but to make bitcoin a legal means of payment for goods and services, if every business around the world will take this same bold steps, the government will have no choice, its a matter of time, though 2022 hasnt been friendly to bitcoin and the entire crypto market as a whole, but i believe that in 2023, we will have more goodnews that will help the bitcoin market recover, maybe this will act as an encouragement to many other businesses out there to consider including bitcoin as a means of payments for their services .

People have their on way of understanding cryptocurrency payment, it's good to set up a business and embrace payment method with cryptocurrency and more especially bitcoin, so i believe that such payment and business point should not be in rural areas of your geographical environment. Because in a rural area not everyone who knows what is Bitcoin and actually know how to make payments with Bitcoin ATM machine neither the POS of Bitcoin, so the plan of business should be something to be established in the urban city so that it will be a magnificent business.

No matter how small, a day is the beginning of a story. An admirable and courageous move from African citizens is accepting bitcoin as a form of payment for their business. This is a commendable announcement that shows Africans are doing their hardest to provide bitcoin as a payment option to their businesses in respect of their locality.

This Christmas, make an effort to have a business card and give it to everyone you meet. letting them know that you accept bitcoin as payment for your fashion design services. Before you realize it, the fact that you accept bitcoin payments will be widely recognized.

Good advice, this looks like a more easier way to spread the news but its the last thing to do right now because of the law, like I've said in my other comment Bitcoin is still not legal in my country, this is the least I can do right now.

If I have a business card with bitcoin as means of payment on it is not that safe, business cards travel faster as we know it, I can easily be tracked since my address will be on it, nah I won't do this. My customers that pay me in Bitcoin also understand that it's not legal here yet.

Right now my focus is to keep talking about Bitcoin to my customers and anyone that shows interest is welcome, I am willing to put them through 100% free of charge, I will leave the rest till when its legalized.

Bitcoin is illegal for transactions in your country? Or it is not recognized as a legal tender in your country by some reasons? If bitcoin is illegal as a payment on a transaction in your country, It would be better to pause your transactions with Bitcoin first. I'm not ruining a dream here but it would be better than to be in jail because you accepted bitcoin as a payment for something. But if it is not considered as a legal tender, I don't see wrong with accepting it. You can't be put on jail as long as it is not indicated that crypto transactions is not allowed or morelikely banned in your country. I don't know the laws in your country but I could suggest to try looking for it since you can level up your dream by promoting bitcoin in your store legally.

There are too many people that don't know anything about Bitcoin here, few who knew about it call it a scam, I blame that on lack of knowledge

First of all, I wish to appreciate you on your new initiative of accepting Bitcoin on your fashion designer business, because you can never understand the freedom Bitcoin offers until you used it on your day to day business, which you just started. And secondly, who do you think will teach those around your locality about Bitcoin if you don't do so? Or who do you think will help convince those who see Bitcoin as scam that it's indeed legit if you don't do so. So as a member of this forum, it is our duty to spread the knowledge of Bitcoin in our various locality of which you just started. So that was a good job

You can expand your buisness by first selling bitcoin to people and then they can buy stuff with the bitcoin at your store. This will make it way easier for people to get into bitcoin, since adoption especially for every day users is still quite low.

Congratulations. Making any dream into reality is a wonderful thing that one can be proud of. It sounds like you’re doing your part to help spread adoption and provide a use case for crypto. I think people like you have always driven Bitcoin’s success and I’m glad to see that people are still continuing to give their effort to helping build this community with new and motivated users.

So what do you think is the much safer way? Are you saying it's better not to post pictures at all?

I think some of my compatriots seem to have adopted bitcoin as a means of payment, but for the convenience of their service, they never post anything on social media or anywhere else. He did this because bitcoins are not legal tender in my country and of course this is regulated by law.

It will be different if your country has legalized bitcoin as a means of payment where you can also make large banners in front of shops or places of business freely without the risk of violating the rules. Regarding image, I'm not against anyone posting them but I just agree you have to have good privacy just to keep you safe in relatively less secure places.
