Hopefully famous malls and other store will start to follow this great new trend in mode of payment.
Topic: [Russia] Burger King to accept Bitcoin this summer! - page 4. (Read 5853 times)
Accepting bitcoin for food services does not seem realistic to me. The reason is obvious. How can you expect your transaction to get confirmed after you ordered something?
Well, I'm not sure about the mechanism honestly but this could be fixed with the Lightning network in the future. As for now, they may not require any number of confirmations but again, that could lead into some serious losses. I don't see anyone trying to scam for such a small amounts though.

So yeah, hopefully McDonald, Dominos pizza, and many others will follow after this. I thought that this kind of decisions are taken by the creators of the franchise but It looks like It's not since It's starting on Russia.

We should all pester our local burger king to take them as well. That is how you make it happen.
Annoying them is not a step to allow bitcoin. Introduction is a best step to introduce bitcoin in a local burger king. Not just in a local burger king. Introduce Bitcoin to all those shops which are famous. All those services who are famous then our government will take an action to allow bitcoin. So bitcoin will be accept to exchange serve and good in a whole country. 
Wow its kinda funny but hell yeah. Burger king is one of my favorite restaurant. But I'm not a Russian Citizen but what if bitcoin implies in all restaurant that accepts bitcoin as a money to buy their foods thats super cool. I hope the world sees this article. Can't wait for this one to happen and I'll pray for this one.
Russia accepts bitcoin I think it can only be apply to countries that accept bitcoin as a whole but let's just see if that would happen because burger king is a company and they can sure implement if they can accept bitcoin in all burger kind branches nationwide, and I am looking forward for that time to come in our country eating at burger king while using my phone as a wallet to pay for our order I think there would be many customers that would think how did I do that because I never see bitcoin in my country that viral and well known.

Cool, almost every day I hear news about what now in some place you can pay bitkoinami. A few more years at such a pace and bitcoins can be paid everywhere
That is not too far to happen because if you know the country of Japan then you can pay bitcoins there in almost all the stores because their government already make bitcoin as a legal currency and a lot of stores and people now are using it in paying things that they bought from stores or any restaurants in their country, bitcoin will become worldwide accepted if the good news and the increase of price will continue.Cool, almost every day I hear news about what now in some place you can pay bitkoinami.

Now we can finally buy burgers in Russia with bitcoin instead of trying the local food? Yay So yeah, hopefully McDonald, Dominos pizza, and many others will follow after this. I thought that this kind of decisions are taken by the creators of the franchise but It looks like It's not since It's starting on Russia.
, but seriously any news like this is good news but I don’t have any plans to visit Russia so I will not be able to get advantage of this.Yeah, hopefully Burger king is able to implement the same sort of thing in countries such as the United States. It seems like that after Russia's government decided to announce their plan to legalize bitcoin fully by 2020, a lot of merchants have opened up to this new technology. Seriously, when is the US going to at least regulate bitcoin so that merchants can use it? I mean, regulation isn't necessarily a good thing for bitcoin, but at least it gets more people using it.
Burger for bitcoin, here we go people but too bad it's only on Russia this will make bitcoin add's popularity.
Waiting for other restaurants locally to accept bitcoin. I think it will be only a test phase for Burger king Russia.
Once it gets successful they will adopt worldwide.

I do not think that this will be a successful step. I am sure that this is only a marketing effect to attract media attention.
Maybe it is, but implementing bitcoin is so cheap anyways, and all you need to do is get a bitcoin wallet, and stick up the QR code for transactions. Easy as that. It's a win win situation, Burger King gets positive publicity, and so does bitcoin in russia.

At least there has been an attempt to succeed and whether or not it is most important later that there is a marketing business while in payment will still use fiat and bitcoin money, so the business will still running even bitcoin users are still rare

Well this is expected since it is legal to use bitcoin in Russia, and I think we can see more stores in Russia accepting bitcoin as a payment soon. I just hope more countries will follow Russia in legalizing bitcoin.
Bitcoin used as the payment method in Burger King is not expected at all. Bitcoin is not forbidden in Russian but that doesn't mean it is legalised, it is still grey area to for tax Russian tax officeStrictly speaking, it is not so
The Russian Tax Service declared their position toward Bitcoin in an official letter that they published in November, 2016 (if I'm not mistaken). I posted a link to it somewhere around here once it had been published, though I don't remember in which thread exactly. It basically says that Bitcoin is a sort of foreign currency and any foreign currency transactions should be conducted via authorized banks but since no bank is going to get involved with Bitcoin (due to lack of the laws regulating Bitcoin circulation), Bitcoin is none of their business either. So it is no longer a gray area (at least, not in respect to taxes) if we could interpret the letter in this way
If you only got the information's from the site then there might be a chance that they simply didn't update it yet. The news are pretty much in a lot of bitcoin blogs and not RT only (which is also a reliable and credible source)
Look, here is Restaurant in Rostov on Don, and there exist payment processor in BTC from april 2017.
"Rostov-papa"

On the end of the page is a link to BTC payment procesor/exchanger, it release a payment certificate in local currency and it accepted there.

Really good news for bitcoins, would really help raise awareness if they put a banner in their store saying "now accepting bitcoins". But, are the customers going to have to wait for a confirmation before getting their burger? If yes, how many confirmations?
and it's regulated
No.
Only trough private address of someone (Business Owners).
All bills are in local currency.
This is not big news in my opinion, Russia is a big country and bitcoin has been legalized there. If this is applied in my country this can be called as historic news. I hope soon. 
it's big because in russia bitcoin was not legal before and now they made it legal and it's regulated and some shop accept it i can agree that a shop that do foods service and accept bitcoin isn't that big for adoption, but it's a step, btw what is your country?
russians are mine neighbors so I'm very happy, hope soon my country will take this experience for an example!
Wow, that is huge news (for Russia)! Huge as in: if this type of organization recognizes the currency, adopts the currency and basically says: this is legit, then more people will know about it, use it and therefore the usage of BTC will grow and with that the value too. Very exciting.
Russian government has seriously engaged in cryptocurrency regulation and actively illuminates it in the media.
