They went on a mission to convince local bars and restaurant owners to accept bitcoin payments. At the opening at May 28th 2014, 15 places accepted bitcoins.

wow this is such a cool news to hear because it has actual bitcoin usage instead of fiat in it, and that is always nice.

i am wondering if anyone can give us some statistics on how successful these businesses were and how many people have been using them with bitcoin in the past 2-3 years?

Arnhem world's most Bitcoin friendly city located in Netherlands, you can buy everything with bitcoin in it.

Arnhem Bitcoinstad" ('Bitcoin City') as they call it, came into existence when three Bitcoin enthusiasts decided they wanted to be able to spend bitcoins in their own town. They went on a mission to convince local bars and restaurant owners to accept bitcoin payments. At the opening at May 28th 2014, 15 places accepted bitcoins. Since then, more and more shop owners joined them so you can buy a greater diversity of products and pay with Bitcoin in Arnhem.

What we will have next, Bitcoin Country?
What other Bitcoin friendly places you would recommend?

This is very enthusiastic news! who is behind all this and how it happened? was it a result of government initiative or was it just a community efforts? I would like to see how it worked so that other cities can follow the suit.

We could say that. Netherlands is also bitcoin country. It was one of the first european countries that has welcomed bitcoin, placed ATMs and also regulated bitcoin but in positive way. So it would be great to see other countries that would follow this great example of Netherlands.

As mentioned other countries too might follow Netherlands to advance in technology. Bitcoin ATM usage has decreased a lot due to the exchanges which makes the conversion with small fee. I believe that already a country named Liberaland is using bitcoin as its currency which has got just a few number of residents.

At first I thought it's a small town with population under 20,000, so it wasn't a big deal to convince almost every place there to accept Bitcoin. But then I googled it. Wow! Arnhem's population is over 150,000 and it is one of the largest cities of the Netherlands. Good job, guys! That's a great example for all of us to follow.
