I didnt see the supermarkets near me in my little town or even in big cities next to me. But i think it the just a matter of time, when they appear. Other situation with online stores. One week ago i needed to buy one program very urgent,but i didnt have money on my card. to my happiness there was opportunity to buy via bitcoin and I bought. It was not the most successful purchase of my life , because i don't like spend my bitcoins, but i didnt have any choice in that situation and it saved me!!!
Topic: Supermarket Accept Bitcoin - page 14. (Read 12897 times)
As far as I know there are still no supermarket accepting Bitcoin (at least in my country) as payment method. I think that before that reaches supermarkets, the suppliers of the supermarket should also use Bitcoin as payment method because its price varies greatly overtime. The bitcoin should first be known by a lot of people before it can be accepted as payment method. Transactions might be fast and reliable but it still doesn't gain trust as there are some unconfirmed transactions which might pose a threat to all users.
Yes, there are still security issues during payment, especially double spending. Also supermarkets do not have Bitcoin-compatible devices, which will take up extra space and cause extra spoils. These problems can be solved, but no work is being done.
Base on my own research no supermarket from now accept bitcoin, and i think we can only see this if the government see that it is safe in countries economy,
To think of it i think its cool to see some big supermarket here in my home country accepting bitcoin as secondary means of payment at least

In the future supermarkets will have their own form of tokens linked with their loyalty cards, walmartcoin etc.
as far, in my country there is no supermarket or seller who received bitcoin as a means of payment and with the prohibition of payment transactions using bitcoin by the government in 2018, this will have an impact on the reduction of payment methods using bitcoin
Currently in the country I still can not use bitcoin for payments because bitcoin is still banned by the government, so no store accepts payments using bitcoin, maybe if it is legarized many will use it for payment using bitcoin
I saw many private shops that accept BTC, LTC even if they are not so legal
No, and frankly, I don't think, it will ever happen. Not with Bitcoin. It's volatility will scare the fish out of the water, forget about supermarkets with their low margins. Also, imagine buying milk with Bitcoin - you will get a liter, and pay for the gallon!
Possibly, some widely adopted stable crypto - yes.
unstable currency can only be a means for earnings or investment, but not a real tender. today, it is possible to pay for items with the help of bitcoin in some countries, but it can not of a mass character and I doubt that the mass will come over time. Possibly, some widely adopted stable crypto - yes.

Just use a Bitcoin debit card. Most of them have good rates with low fees, and your Bitcoin is converted instantly, compared to services like Localbitcoins, where the best rates are using National Bank Transfer, which takes up to 7 days to clear in your account.
The idea is not actually bad. However the current bitcoin transaction's situation can make things not suitable for this idea. We customers can't afford to pay ridiculous fees in order for you to just buy a single cracker. Now if you don't have plans to pay for that kind of fees. Neither the supermarket can afford to wait for your transaction to be confirmed
As far as I know that supermarkets are not yet accepting bitcoin. I haven't been heard about accepting bitcoin for that specific establishment. But for me if that would be happens, it's more convenient to make groceries and we don't have to bring a lot of money anytime to make shopping.
I have been aiming to hold 1 BTC.
may be enough for holiday supplies later this year.
hopefully there will be more price spikes for Bitcoin.

In our place, not yet. Mostly here in our place do not know about bitcoin.
And if that time will happen that we can pay bitcoin on the super market I think bitcoin will have a tax in our place.

According to my personal views, this is the one of the efforts that really looks more advanced and should be already available in various countries. But well.. as in fact, since not everyone understands about bitcoin or knows about bitcoin, it's still a small possibility available in all countries.
Especially in my place, hmm.. it does not exist and it seems likely very small if there will be supermarkets that accept bitcoin payments.

Supermarkets for bitcoin haha i will pay for transaction more then for coffee
I think if in our country transactions in supermarkets using bitcoin in my opinion can not be applied, because in this case only a few people who understand what is bitcoin. In this case munking there are some supermarkets that already use bitcoin.
Not difficult to have supermarket to accept bitcoin. Once the segwit is active and able to handle more and quicker transactions.
no, because bitcoin not yet and still illegal in my country
i hope we can pay with bitcoin soon

Here too, we cant use straight bitcoin for payments cos its not yet legal currency here, so we should convert the bitcoin first.
I'm not aware of any whether they are inside or outside my country.In China, this is unthinkable, and it may take 100 years for China to pay with bitcoin 
In China there is already a so called alipay so I don't think people will choose bitcoin in that way for supermarkets. Since it is backed up by their government and it's owned by the world renowned billionaire Jack Ma. But in other countries it's possible to see some supermarket accepts bitcoin especially if the owner is a real investor in bitcoin and he's a believer on it. Jump to:
