Isn't this the internet? Title: Re: Buying food at Burger King with Bitcoin - Gyft Post by: oscar.svensken on May 13, 2013, 08:53:19 PM I find it pretty amazing to see how far Bitcoin has come. People had barely heard about it months ago and now it's almost mainstream!

It's not a technical reason preventing worldwide adoption. It's a business thing.

It will be good for the many people that do use those though.
