Fortunately, in my country, in Ukraine it is not forbidden to use cryptocurrencies, but there are still very few places where it can be spent. I often pay cryptocurrency at several restaurants in the city where I live. And I buy e-books, accessories for phone, computer, etc. from time to time in online stores, but it's still too early to talk about the full distribution of cryptocurrencies, but positive changes are noticeable.

Unfortunately, the use of cryptocurrency in my country is not very common. For that reason I can not say I bought services or products with cryptocurrency except internet environment. Certain leading construction firms have announced that they will accept payments with Bitcoin, but it was not possible to use them because there were not so many investment or money in my account. On the Internet, I can say that I use it for various services.
Country I'm living in: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus

Thank you for sharing information in your country! This is useful for my work. As far as I know, in Turkey, crypto is developing quite actively. I think soon more and more local businesses will be involved in this and will accept crypto as a payment for goods and services, especially the barrier is reduced with the use of stable coins, such as MakerDAO. By the way, Dether recently announced an official partnership with them. This will allow shops not to worry because of the large volatility of crypto and more confident to accept crypto using usable and decentralized app like Dether Smiley

Well, since Playkey (cloud gaming provider) are soon will accept their tokens as payment to subscription and their headquarters are in my city, that would mean I can spend crypto in my city  Smiley

I've not used crypto to buy anything. It's purely for investment purposes at the moment however if a convenient travel wallet and enough places were to start taking it i could see it as a great travel payment option while overseas.

Go Green!

Thanks for the feedback. Personally for me, it is also especially relevant in the context of traveling. Well, let's contribute to the filling of this Dether world crypto map http://shop.dether.io/ and we will be able to more and more often use crypto as payment for goods and services during our travel around the world Smiley

Hey guys,

We all know that crypto is now largely an investment asset, but as the development and mass adoption, crypto is also increasingly becoming a way to pay for goods and services directly. Share please your experience of the direct crypto spending, in your city. If you spend, then where and what do you usually buy or order, in particular in physical stores or other establishments? If not, then what would you possibly like?


I'm Dether deep-contributor and your answers can help my research and the subsequent development of this ecosystemly decentralized p2p\b2p exchange. Dether, which supports by Consensys, recently launched the first dapp beta release for Shops http://shop.dether.io (the release for People will be before the end of April). Almost any offline business in any country can easily be listed on Dether map and soon they will be able to receive crypto as payments for their goods and services, as well as to make a crypto-cash exchange, which can become an additional income for the business. Whether it's a local food or tech shop, a cafe, a foodtruck on the beach or even a nightclub. If you would like to spend your crypto in your favorite places in your city, but they don’t yet accept it - just show them Dether dapp Roll Eyes

p.s. Please guys, if you can, tell at least the country you are talking about, then my research will be more effective Smiley

Australia, actually used btc as payment for a $50 dinner the other night. Wanted to try it- fee was $1. I thought I might as well use it for something. The owner only had three people use it in the past so it was pretty novel. I'm waiting for companies such as Darico.io to develop debit cards to use instead. Times are changing

Thank you for sharing your Australian experience. Times have really changed Wink

I don't have one in town yet. But in the country we have several shops and restaurants. They accept payment in cryptocurrency.
 Think in this year to visit their Smiley

Don't forget to show them Dether dapp, maybe it will be more profitable and convenient for them and for you as a customer too Wink

https://medium.com/@DETHER/makerdao-and-dether-partner-to-bring-stablecoin-dai-to-mobile-atms-around-the-world-f74247a3a249

"Dether is joining forces with MakerDAO to bring the value of stable tokens to everyone in the world.
With the DAI on Dether,  shop owners have the possibility to automatically switch from cryptocurrency to a stable coin.
Dether tellers will be able to sell stable tokens directly.
Less volatility = more sustainability."

In the Philippines, some of the stores and restaurant accept bitcoin as payment and not other crypto. Drivers of Grab are accepting some coins, usually LITECOIN, they accept that payment instead of cash. I'm an employee of Grab and I know the system do not accept crypto as payment but we are not implementing to drivers to accept crypto, it's their choice to do that.

In my city there are also no shops that directly consume a coin. So I still need to trade it. But it also shows that the digital world has enormous potential.

I am from India and there is no single store in my state which accepts the bitcoin. There is no way I can spend money in the form of BTC in my region. Unfortunately the current situation of the India will create fearsome behaviour everywhere as the RBI makes statement of banning the BTC in first place. Thus whatever chance was there to implement this new system has got stolen itself! Now we can just trade it with the fiat currency and then make use of it. This trade also happens in between friends and family so there is no any good news from Indian side mate. All the best to your research anyway.

Hey. Thank you for sharing this detailed info from India, it will be useful for my work. I heard that many even signed a petition against the prohibition of crypto. Well, I hope the situation will stabilize. Perhaps banks will block the possibility of buying, but this will most likely lead to the active use and development of decentralized p2p exchanges, such as Dether. Well, hold the position Wink

Personally, I do not spend coins now, only hoarding. And unfortunately there is no possibility yet in my city to use cryptocurrency to pay for anything.


Hey, you can try to involve some business in your city to take crypto first Grin and if using Dether dapp the business can also become a point of exchange, which can bring in additional income.

In my opinion, cases of direct exchange of crypto currency for goods and services are very rare. And in order to spend crypto it is necessary to exchange it for fiat money.

But considering the development of the market as a whole, this will definitely happen more often Wink

at the beginning of 2017 in my country many stores and hotels receive payments using bitcoin but by the end of 2017 governments in my country banned bitcoin as a legitimate means of payment so many shops and hotels using bitcoin payouts are closed.now there is no place to receive bitcoin for fear of government
