Its a very good news for all the consumers in Canada, I hope other fast food chain all over the world will follow accepting bitcoin as payment.

In fact, in Japan and South Korea, many convenience stores and merchants support the use of bitcoin for payment, but some countries such as China are more vulnerable to bitcoin

This is both great and crazy. It is great that one of the largest fast food company in the world recognize Bitcoin, but come on who would spend bitcoin for a bucket of chicken specially with the fees right now. It is still better to use FIAT for small purchases. If Fees and latency will be fixed then this will be a great option.

Recently, KFC Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments for a short period of time. However, Bitcoin can only be used to place orders online, and only to purchase a new item called "Bitcoin Bucket". And all this special deal will be handled by Bitpay, a fairly common Bitcoin trading tool. Its really interesting news, I wish that I can also buy chicken with Bitcoin in my coutry. Roll Eyes

I don't think KFC has accepted bitcoin now here in the Philippines I don't hear any news like that but 7eleven accepted already

This is nice. If a store as large as KFC will begin to accept bitcoin then it is a start.

NO IT IS NOT! Who that is not completely out of his mind would buy anything when the fee is 25$? Of course you can pay a lower fee but then you have to wait 3 or more days before they can deliver the food.

Yeah lmao, they need to start accepting alt coins too if they want to make it realistic otherwise they’ll be waiting ages for the money

Canada understood the whole bitcoin thing and this is a plus for them. It's good that they involved bitcoin to KFC

Canada has NOTHING to do with this, a company is America is just as able to accept Bitcoin for shitty chicken. They're using Bitpay as a processor as well.

if in the country kanada receive payment with bitcoin, I think this is very good news because lately I hear many countries that prohibit using bitcoin as a means of payment.
I also hope in my country also receive payment with bitcoin.

Are you willing to use your BTC to buy fried chicken? Which one is better? Hold it as an investment, or use it to buy fried chicken when cash money is more effective to use?
Yes, we all know that transaction fees are still too high, and that's not quite as effective as micro-payments.
Adapted payment with cryptocurrency is good, but still need improvement in order to be more effective.

It is a big leap in bitcoin since KFC is well known around the world but i think they really need to fix the rough patches we all know that it takes almost an hour or 2 before a transaction completed and what about bitcoins volatility especially now bitcoin is fluctuating a lot i don't think they'll gonna accept btc if it's not stable enough although i hope this news is true cause if it is, it is a really big step from bitcoin.

Good news for the people in canada, store are starting to accept as a payment. Its good to buy now since we have small transaction fee as of the moment and fast confirmation. Hopefully some others offline establishment will follow to accept crypto currency not just bitcoin Cheesy

$15 that you will be spending for some chicken will end up being $1000 in few years Cheesy

. More like the pizza event. But sadly the fee of making the transaction is way much higher than the price of the bucket, though fees are made on our choice, but paying less fees means we will be receiving our order after few days.
Jokes aside, a good step taken by them. Might attract some crypto enthusiastic customers in Canada.

Wish I could buy here too but what about transaction fees? Good one by bitpay assistance to help facilitate this. I believe with time and with proper adjustment on the blockchain; a faster transaction will be achieved for immediate payment of goods and services!

That is good news after a series of negative press about Bitcoin as well as cryptocurrencies over the past few years. However, I think in the future, KFC, as well as other places, will accept altcoins instead of Bitcoin because people now consider Bitcoin as an asset rather than a currency for trading.

I'm really wondering how the value proposition of using btc to pay for everyday things is. Maybe there will be an upcoming crypto that will be used for everyday purchases. I would rather hold onto my btc lol

I did not see this can be Canada as mentioned but I dealt with myself to buy MacDonald in Moscow and I see that later all major restaurants will depend on Pitcuen

With the fluctuating price of bitcoin these days using them to purchase goods like this is quite impractical to do since bitcoin is more of an investment rather than a currency and I think those who uses their bitcoin to purchase a bucket of chicken will regret when time comes that bitcoin value will pump and appreciate again.

Exactly, Because of fluctuating price of Bitcoin these days , I think that it is impossible to do. Maybe there are lot of negative aspects of this activity but we must be proud of your cryptocurrency because it is already used by some huge factories and industries and i know that someday, It will be a legal cryptocurrency in the world and many people will have the curiosity to learn about it.

Oh yeah great. Does anybody try it? The network is still overloaded, how long does i have to wait for my chicken when i payed with btc? Are they waiting some hours for the confirmation? Dont spend your bitcoins for the unhealty food. Maybe today the coins are worth some dollar of chicken, but in a year with the coin you can probably buy a car.
