Topic: The first gas station to accept Bitcoin in my region (Read 1359 times)
Yea! It is good to hear about bitcoin being accepted by many businesses for making payment.
What country is this anyway? Actually, is good to know that one of the merchants like this are accepted bitcoin as their mode of payment over their business. I wish all businesses all over the world now are accepting bitcoin to their business.
Though, here in my country there are few of the merchants are open into bitcoin, and the only merchants I experienced was that when I came up to visit one of the restaurant where the owner according to its staff was a bitcoin lover.

In El Salvador, knowing too well they accepted Bitcoin as a legal tender and also having a Bitcoin city. Most of their businesses over are not really using Bitcoin or actually making use of Bitcoin for business transactions. But it's good to see such you know. Have you gotten to tea h your staff's on how to use Bitcoin, don't hoard the information pass it on OP.
How do you know? Maybe you think that way because they didn't made a post if which services or stores in their country are now accepting bitcoin not unlike to other countries that we see like this one on this thread where a gas station accepts bitcoin but El Salvador having a bitcoin city is already enough to say that services and shops located at it are accepting bitcoin but even if not on that specific city bitcoin can still be used anyway.You can just ask the owner of the store or business establishment that you are currently in and they will definitely agree to get paid in bitcoin even if they didn't put a sign that they are accepting bitcoin.

I often see the way Nigeria treats Bitcoin, it seems that in the next five years Nigeria will be the largest Bitcoin holder in the world, considering that starting from gas stations, they have implemented payments with Bitcoin, it is possible that in the next five years Bitcoin in Nigeria can be used in other public places, such as restaurants, and other places.
I think it would be great to see local shops accepting bitcoin for their services and products. I have not found a shop locally so far but it looks like the world is changing and in some time, there will be more shops accepting bitcoin for payments.
for countries that have not fully accepted bitcoin, obviously they will not find any payments using bitcoin, but those who have admitted that they still can't fully accept it and are still sorting it out. Looks like you're not the only one experiencing that, my place isn't there yet and it seems you may still be looking at the situation first.The world is transforming and bitcoin acceptance is also expanding, soon it won't be common to come across small scale of business that accept bitcoin for payment. Businesses will see more reasons why cryptocurrency is important for payment.
like it or not, with developments that continue to increase and bitcoin has been widely acknowledged, it will inevitably lead to it and bitcoin will be used as a means of payment that will make it easier. because the need for easier transactions will be needed and bitcoin can solve it.

In no distant time, a lot of businesses will start accepting bitcoin for their goods and services though it's seem the adoption is slow, however it global awareness has continue to gain attention in recent times, the OP had indeed demonstrated the transaction using bitcoin as a good example in that place or locality, I am sure other businesses will adopt that same method of payment to remain competitive in that area, and in another instance it's on records that the numbers of bitcoin ATMs globally is gradually increasing this attest to the fact that adoption of bitcoin is raising steadily.

local shops will not accept to use bitcoin as exchange of their material or products with bitcoin and if they do bitcoin will have more courage and influence in fiat currency. That is why government will not allow Bitcoin to widespread for transaction. But if have gas station or supermarket i will introduce the system of using bitcoin for payment Local shops can decide to use bitcoin for acceptance of payment only if the owner of the business is a bitcoiner or into bitcoin and if the country where the local shop is found has not banned bitcoin totally. I have come shopping where bitcoin is used to buy things.
In our country, some local online shops consider accepting payments through our local crypto wallet which also allows accepting Bitcoin. It's a sign that Bitcoin is being adapted in our country and is continuously emerging. It's actually a good thing because it benefits both the business owners as well as crypto users. I hope more businesses would allow their customers to decide on what mode of payment or currency they would want to use.

But if have gas station or supermarket i will introduce the system of using bitcoin for payment Incredible how a few years ago Bitcoin was becoming known and people had a certain distrust in it since it was something new, in general people prefer to continue in their daily lives and not risk new methods as in the case of El Salvador... For no one it is a secret that today this distrust still exists in some people. But even so, they have implemented several methods for the integration of BTC, because it is not only a gas station that is accepting Bitcoin as a payment method, but I have also read about coffee shops, well-known brand stores and even ATMs in different countries. We hope to go to this step and possibly in the future Bitcoin will be used as a common payment method anywhere.
Yes, I think there's some establishment here in my country accepts crypto payment I just don't know if they still accept crypto payment when pandemic comes and especially now bear market. The thing that is kinda hard with crypto payment is its volatility, it will be very hard for shop owners but then I am glad the more and more countries are now aware in bitcoin and how will it works.

Yes, because there might be a lot of bitcoin users on their place since the gas station already started accepting it but on what place do you live? I think there is a map which seeks if what places accepts btc, I just forgot its name but it was shared on this forum before but you can try searching a keyword like "btc map" on google and see if it shows something.We cant compare our place to others that already accept btc because we don't know maybe btc on our country is not yet legalized or it might be legalized as an asset use only but not as a currency and that is the reason why people don't publish a BTC sign on their store but you can still ask them privately.

congratulation for you .
Bitcoin can be used as a means of p2p payment, but if you compare it to fiat, it's really very different, are you not afraid if the value of btc returns to its lowest price during difficult times? don't you feel lost?
tell me where is your country

The owner seems like don't care about it and it's just some kind of investment for him to accept BTC since we all know the price right now is low and it could be multiplied in the next months to come so it's a better initiative than for not doing anything about the current situation of the market. Since they might be getting some decent amount of BTC from their customers without decreasing their usual income because people will pay with BTC are not many compared to those who pay with fiat.
Investing in Bitcoin across the gas station makes a lot of sense I think you need to know more about Bitcoin, but I understand from reading your post, bro, you explained it in a very simple way.
Isn't this something! It is clear that btc adoption is in progress, it may not be as rapid as some may expect but we are heading there.
It gives a certain kind of joy to see something you believe and support online in use in the actual world (especially when it has received so much negativity). Am glad to see this, it shows people will embrace btc eventually but will take some time. I hope to see more businesses accepting btc.

True it's a thing of joy to come across a gas station who uses bitcoin as a means of payment very impressive. I think the acceptance and adoption of bitcoin as a means of payment won't take much time again because so many African nations have accepted and more are just waiting to see the progress made by the ones that are using Bitcoin for payment before they can announce there's, we got to fo more which ever country we found ourselves so that the news can go round the world, Bitcoin has come to stay.
This is a very great development for all especially we the bitcoin lovers. With this mode of payment, we can make payment easily and be free from network issues encountered with the centralized banking system when making payment with card. With the programmed system of bitcoin transaction, am sure the network issues encountered with payment through the banking system is solved already when we use bitcoin for such transaction.
there will always be two sides that happen, maybe like you and those who really want to make payments with bitcoin, of course, is something that can be used and is very useful, but obviously there are also those who disagree because it might actually be detrimental because the price of bitcoin is always changing and we can just pay when the price is going down obviously that's a disadvantage.but it is clear that in principle this is a progress that can continue to develop for other things and proves that bitcoin is indeed recognized.
I read a lot that there are countries that legalize bitcoin and there are coffee shops that accept bitcoin transactions. I want to visit that country. I want to feel how direct transactions are with bitcoin.
From what I understand, the bitcoins aren't converted to fiat. You hold them. How do you handle taxes and the obligations you have towards the state when someone pays with BTC? Some more info on that could be beneficial to everyone who might be thinking about adding support for BTC in the future.
Very interesting question, I hope OP will come back soon and let us know. How did OP pay taxes to the government when people use bitcoin to pay at your business.
Currently bitcoin price has dropped a lot since OP's post, do people still use bitcoin to pay at your business and how did you handle this situation when current bitcoin price is still shows no signs of stopping.
