could be good if they do it right, but i doubt exactly this. Also let's see how the situation in one year will be. If nobody uses it, then it is useless anyways.

Many bitcoin user will use it for sure because there are only few merchants that are accepting bitcoin payment. We should be happy that starbucks is accepting bitcoin now. Im really exited when starbucks is accepting here in our place
I will surely try it.

I think most will try it out. See that it cost more and also wastes your precious Bitcoin, which you then have to buy new ones and pay a fee again. So i guess after 2-3 tries most people will go back to paying in fiat.

Man, I hate Starbucks. Macons control it. I wouldn't spend my precious Bitcoins in some shitty Starbucks coffee. I don't even know how can anyone consider that filthy water coffee. Starbucks drink is everything but coffee, and even so it is a terribly awfull drink

It's just like Coke: even if it's unhealthy, the brand convinces you to try it out. But we have to put away the taste and everything else: because Starbucks is VERY popular worldwide, accepting Bitcoin as a payment method would be a pretty important step for us. I'd like to buy food and drinks anonymously, with a few taps only. If you won't spend your money on Starbucks you'll spend it on something else one day and you'll regret it maybe even more. What matters is the advertisement Starbucks would make. If there will be ads placed around mentioning that "Bitcoin is accepted here", more people will come from around the world. We need a bigger community.

While it's always good that bitcoin gets this sort of exposure, it's not what we really need today. Until we get segwit and LN, we are not going to be able to deal with the amount of transactions a real mainstream exposure of "paying for coffee" tier is going to need. Also, I doubt the average joe will bother, but nonetheless it would be great if it becomes a thing. It would be cool to pay for coffees with the small extra satoshis you get in sig campaigns for example, because it's an convenient amount to have in an address and use other than leave it there setting.

Sounds good to me but starbucks isn't actually approving bitcoin its like ipayyou allows bitcoin and we can pay starbucks by that

Yeah, it's actually 3rd party which allows you enable to pay in Starbucks through bitcoin and not directly paying to Starbucks, it's like iPayYou exchanging your bitcoin for you and then forward the fiat towards Starbucks. So, the title is a bit out of its actual point.But whatever, as long as we can pay Starbucks through bitcoin there's nothing to be murmuring about

This is a very good news in the world of bitcoin or cryptocurrency. More people will do research about bitcoin and this will help to spike the bitcoin's value even more. In few years many shops or stores will adopt bitcoin and this will make our daily lives easier. And bitcoin's value will continuously rise.

they managed to make Starbucks accepting bitcoin in their official application and that's definitly an achievement for a new service like them.

Its great news for bitcoin

, only good news lately.
Keep in that way so price will be soon 1500$.

Im hoping alibaba will accept bitcoin, then it will explode

Do you think people will get out of their way to buy Bitcoin just to spend it on Alibaba? They can use fiat or their credit cards for that and there is no need for Bitcoin. Why are people still fixated with the idea that Bitcoin will become a mainstream currency?

yes they will. when they look at how small is the fees and also how fast and safe are the transactions they will choose it. when using bitcoin they won't have to give out their personal information and stay anonymous as far as the seller is concerned.

and also it is best for the merchants too because they will never have to worry about cash backs that has been happening all this time when people use other methods.

this won't happen over night but eventually little by little people will realize this.

Sounds good but I think that using Bitcoin to buy gift cards would be much cheaper...... That is to say that the gift cards are not carded.
