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.

It's great that people are adopting it, especially someone as big as KFC, I don't think i'd use it to buy anything just yet though, I'd be scared the price would rocket and it'd be the pizza story all over again!

This must be just a marketing strategy and it's actually pretty good, by riding bitcoin's fame these days many companies are associating themselves with bitcoin or other crypto just like this one, i'm not sure if many availed such program but for me it would be a waste of bitcoin including the potential gain from it.
Agree with you this is impossible especially in my country this will be a sensitive conversation let alone a lot of bitcoin is prohibited by all parties who do not understand it.
and hopefully can be understood by the government so that bitcoin can be used as a means of legal payment direstoran also other transactions Grin

Buying chicken with bitcoin is like shooting a fly with a rocket launcher, so It's just a marketing stunt from KFC. Paying with bitcoin is still a problem with the high fees. But it shows that cryptocurrencies are getting more popular day by day.

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

Then you should have a Bitpay wallet and you should pay a lot of fees for this bucket. It's good to see Bitcoin accepted in new places but i think this is useless.
Maybe it's better if they are accepting another altcoin with cheaper fees.

This is the type of publicity I like to see. The positive, real-world implications of crypto use.

Now BTC might not be the best coin to be used for this purpose. But hey, I'm not complaining.

I have never heard of this news. If it's true then it's good news making all the way good for the customer point of view. In the future accepting the payments is a good idea for accepting at All major food outlets and franchises. It can be vendors more better in the future if the coins are a widely used currency as well. That would be the most happiest news for me.

" Thank you,  Your 4 dollar meal is now 33.28 after fees and taxes!"

Once fees are fixed, This wont be as big of a deal.

Recently, KFC Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments for a short period of time.

basically they are still in test mode, so tomorrow or at any time they can decide that this method of payment is not viable, as well as the delay of confirmations and high fees would not surprise me if they said that this method of payment is not viable , what we should do is not cultivate high expectations with every news that says: "place X now accepts bitcoin"; "nasdaq thinks about future bitcoin" and we are already in the social networks to celebrate before we take some time to see if it will even be possible that such news becomes concrete in the long term


Its really interesting news, I wish that I can also buy chicken with Bitcoin in my coutry.  Roll Eyes

you could do this months ago, it was enough to have a Bitcoin debit card that you would buy many things in your country, unfortunately now you can not ask for the card


LoL, you give BTC to the KFC staff, and have to wait 2h for the transaction to be completed haha. hope you have fun LoL

this problem will be solved in the future, just be patient and over time we have the solution of this problem
