Title: Number customers paying in BTC / gross sales in shops (brick and mortar) Post by: miso on July 29, 2015, 07:42:52 AM Hi, I have found some statistics about online sales but not about brick and mortar stores like grocery stores, restaurants, coffeehouses...
I have read bitcoin payments are "popular" in Silicon valley, Berlin, .. Question 1: How many customers pay in bitcoin in a shop every month? Question 2: What is the monthly bitcoin gross sale in a shop? Thanks.

An under-appreciated area I thought bitcoin would do well would be at colleges. If someone could get the campus bookstores and coffee shops to look into it I think it would take off with the added benefit of having more young adults become familiar with it and spread the word as they move on into the working careers.

I have convinced several local places near me. Show them bitpay or coinbase if they are confused and afraid.
