But, if you had to pin it on a Slurpee, how much time would you give it?
my guess is 4-6 years.
I have a tow service and we now accept Bitcoin.
Try last year, for two 7-11's in Utah starting accepting bitcoins due to the manager being the wife of a Bitcoiner. Oh, BTW, the Bitcoiner's name is Curtis Green known as bigasic in these parts of the internet. Maybe you've seen my thread where I called him out after introducing his GoFundMe campaign under the guise that he knew of it because he dated Curtis' daughter, which is really HIS daughter. Them Mormons are something else, eh?

I just got 2 7-11's to start taking bitcoins, We are going to discuss the best method of taking bitcoin, we want it to be very simple for the customer. Also, i think this will bring a lot of business to these stores as we live in a mini silicon valley and many computer "geeks" love bitcoin, so they would go out of their way just to pay with bitcoin.
We are also going to sell bitcoin. (we are going to make sure we are 100 percent legal with that) but, I think if its successful, we will get a lot of franchisees doing the same.
Please post your suggestions on how to advertise and go about taking btc. We are going to run a promotion, where we get the media involved, etc and offer discounts, and maybe even give away some bitcoin..
Your input is appreciated.
