Title: Everywhere, start asking if they accept Bitcoins
Post by: raskolnikovx on December 07, 2013, 06:14:00 AM
This is something I started doing the past days and I plan to continue doing.
Just enter drugstore, market or whatever and ask (even when they will obviously say no)

- DO YOU ACCEPT BITCOINS?  ;D

You cant explain the salesman what Bitcoin is but by asking like this he will -eventually- do
some research to find it out.

So next time you go to the store to get something, regardless what and where, just pop the question!

I get enough strange looks and put myself into more than enough awkward situations with random strangers. So... no thanks.

I just enjoy nagging people with this.
I wont even explain to them if they ask what Bitcoin is.
But will pop the question if I can.
Everywhere.
 :P

I've been doing this for months now, especially at places like computer stores.

I even emailed Wikipedia to chastise them for not having a wallet address and QR code on their donations page, especially during their current funding drive.

at least if you go to bars, you should ask them to accept bitcoins. im in the LA area, and i don't even think 1 bar accepts bitcoins.. which is ridiculous, because a lot of meetup groups could use them as a base for their meetings. that's just free business right there.
