Hello! I've found a list of stores that accept bitcoin as a payment. But I'd like to know: are there more common stores (like Walmart, Starbucks) that accept crypto currency? or maybe something better like physical exchange or btc ATMs?

What about a convenience store? There's 7/11 that is utilizing the use of cryptocurrency by directly selling it to users in their counters. Eventually, as market adoption increases, I will not be surprised if 7/11 sells their products in cryptocurrency as well. One of the main reason why this is not implemented yet is because of the taxes needed to be assigned on each of the product, there's still no regulatory that is responsible to manage the suggested retail price of products in relation to its tax.

Still depends in your country. If bitcoin and crypto are widely accept in your country, you can find more stores and businesses who accepts bitcoin for payments.
In my country, bitcoin is slowly getting accepted by people. And the government isn't that strict when it comes to crypto that's why there are various entities that you can pay using bitcoin. Although I haven't seen personally or have tried going to an establishments like fast food, restaurants, etc that accept bitcoin. It's more of payment for utility bills than services and goods.

Bitcoin here in our country can pay for the bills like
bank payment
telephone bills
electric bills
government insurance
money transfering
also buying online products.
thats how I use bitcoin for payment bills.

Wow, you can already pay things like electric bills. That means your government accepts it with open arms. The next step is paying for perishables. You pretty much have everything covered. YOu are very lucky.

In our country you can use cryptocurrency to buy game credits, pay utlity and bills, shop online, mobile loads, and etc since the local wallet that we have is contracted with a lot of merchants. I think this is way convenient, as time goes by crypto will be accepted by most merchants.
Is that coins.ph? Because all the details you mentioned coins.ph have that too. In my country we will use bitcoin for different things.  But my favorite Is I can pay my bills using bitcoin and the good that is they have bonus when you pay your bills using coins.ph so that is nice. We can use bitcoin also like buying voucher to coins.ph and spend to the restaurant you choose where do you spend it and different store too.

Wow really? Another lucky person. What kind of bills do you pay and please can you explain to me a bit more about the way the voucher works. How does the restaurant use the voucher?

Starbucks has already received payments using bitcoin, this shows that bitcoin will someday be used as an international payment system because it will be very easy and efficient if we use bitcoin as a payment tool when we transact with someone abroad who will consume lots of time and transaction costs.

Yes, Starbucks and other big shops are accepting bitcoin but it is not straight bitcoin. It is through a third party app named SpedN built by startup Flexa. I do not think there is a common enterprise that is accepting bitcoin right now.

That is a lot better than not accepting any cryptocurrency at all. I think it is more convenient for establishments to be accepting bitcoin with the help of third-party app as there can be a mechanism that can protect them from volatility and I guess this can be less headaches on their part.

I am wondering if because of this third party app, would the price be overcharged in terms of btc? The percentage that they are getting aside from the fact that you are like selling your btc at a lower price. This is one of the struggles of a customer, thinking that it's better to store his btc, believing that it will tremendously increase someday and pay in cash instead.

We live in an age of rapid development of technology, so those people near whom there are no offline stores accepting Bitcoin, can search online stores with this method of payment. Google will find any of them at your request.

There are many big stores from big companies claiming to accept Bitcoin and some other Altcoins as a form of payment. But most of you will take a long time to use Cryptocurrency at the point to pay the costs. Because the staff here do not know it and have not trained in this new form of payment.

The usual workaround for this is gift cards (check bitrefill, gyft & egifter[US],) and bitcoin debit cards. I don't recommend the latter as it is in a bad position rn with all the kyc and the lack of countries whose ppl are eligible to avail it.

Bitplastic was issuing Bitcoin debit cards but Bitplastic closed down.

I thought weekend see all the merchants map who is accepting Bitcoin as a payment method at bitcoin.org. anyway, it's good that a lot of shops nowadays accept Bitcoin payments but still, we are far away from decentralization and having the true value of digital coins in our world. Maybe one day I can buy candies with my digital coins.

What you see in 2-3 recent articles about this is probably all there is since if it's considered common, it must be a big name which is least likely to miss.

I dont know if any common stores like walmart accepts bitcoin but Im currently using this (https://coinatmradar.com) to look for bitcoin atms and it works,sadly theres just one bitcoin atm here in my country,you can try and test it out to find bitcoin atms near you

That's right coinatmradar has almost 5000 bitcoin ATMs and US has more than 3000 ATMs, check https://coinatmradar.com/countries/.
If for a major store that accepts Bitcoin quite a lot, some time ago large companies AT & T also received bitcoin payments, quite a lot of which is also BitPlaza: https://www.bitplazashopping.com/.

When a friend told me that he had seen a cafe accepting bitcoins in Sweden, I thought, wow, they are already ready to work with crypto! What was my surprise when I also learned that you can use with cryptocurrency to pay for goods on the official Microsoft, Shopify or Paypal. Cryptocurrencies everywhere, that's cool


This is definitely true. We may not notice the adoptions occurring around us but Bitcoin is actually moving fast and is being used in different ways. In our country, we are able to purchase online goods through our local online market and it's convenient with just a small tx fee.

Livecasino, 20% cashback, no fuss payouts.
The straight and honest answer is that there are none. Some people say, but you can shop at Microsoft with Bitcoin, and I've read online that it's true but only to reload your wallet, not to actually buy stuff. The balance can be used to buy very limited things, and can't be refunded. I wouldn't know, because my country's not allowed apparently.

A lot of people shop at Amazon too but Amazon itself doesn't take BTC. they do it via Purse.

Although so far a small number of people use cryptocurrencies, but the situation will change. And those merchants who prepare for new trends will be left with big bonuses. Yes, the government does not regulate cryptocurrency, it is a risky investment, but face it. cryptocurrencies will continue to spread throughout the world
