wow, i must say this is a great news and a very welcomed idea to the cryptocurrency community. It goes to show bitcoin is being adopted in different places all across the globe and in no time we will see it being used in every part of the world. A grocery store selling bitcoin is definitely a good news

In the U.S. there are these machines in grocery stores called "Coinstar"...they were originally used for fiat coins but now they've modified them so you can buy Bitcoin from them. This is great for mass adoption!

It would be good news if this is a popular brand in the US, in my country we do not have such machines, but bitcoin adoption increasing in one part of the world, is positive news for enthusiasts all over the world.

Their website would need to contain an introduction section for those interested in buying, so they know how to manage their acquired assets.

A good step in the way of adoption in terms of making btc available to a new audience
But keep the question .. Is this the best way to buy with high fees often?
The second and best step for this audience is P2P.

I think it is more on accessibility purpose. Anyway, also good for those who would like to buy bitcoin without hassle, if they happen to be in the place and decide immediately that they need it so its there. Maybe for adoption also, passers by will be fascinated by the machine so out of curiosity maybe somehow they will also try. just sayin. Grin

In my country, they allow us to buy anything is an online store  through third trusted party. I don't think  it's safe but knowing that online stores considers to accept Bitcoin, it is a great milestone for the community. This only mean that the future of crypto is bright. Hoping that time will come that third trusted party will no longer be needed and direct transaction can be made.

This is one of the great ideas for small payments and support for those who want to own Bitcoin. We live in a growing world every day and why do we need to use Fiat for daily deals? You can pay all with your special pocket money QR code increased every day.

It's great in terms of availability but not in terms of adoption. I see that coinstar has entered into a partnership with CoinMe to sell bitcoins. You can't redeem your code in any wallet than CoinMe. So essentially a buyer will pay high fees for a single buying transaction.

The adoption rate will only increase if the exchange fees can be kept closer to the market price. Otherwise people have better option like p2p trade.

They are powered by coinme, this is a good news but I'm thinking on how much would be the fee?

I like the tagline they made, "Coins are money, too! Treat yourself for a change". They have a $2,500 limitation for each customer and this kind of news adoption is always positive. The era of bitcoin ATM is now starting, expect more of it for the upcoming months.
