This is huge, a lot of companies are starting to adapt cryptocurrency in their business payment method. This will affect the market demand of crypto in a good way, not to mention this can also be a good way of publicity that can push other businesses to accept crypto as well.

But anyway, this is a great step forward. And Amazon is an undoubtful leader in this kind of innovations with their shops without store clerks. Such things don't tell us why we should use cryptocurrencies but it helps HODLers to spend their coins without selling it and losing time and money on fees.

Adoption rates are picking up people and they will rise drastically once the LN is fully developed and ready to go which would cut TX times and fees in a big way.
Just hoping that Amazon itself provides BTC as an alternate payment option sometime in the future. Title: Re: Amazon daughter Wholefoods going to accept Bitcoin and other Crypto?! Post by: LeGaulois on May 14, 2019, 10:28:34 AM They won't accept cryptos (directly), they will use a 3rd party which itself use cryptos (Flexa). When the company will manage everything itself (their own wallets, payment system, etc) I would say YES they do accept cryptos as currencies. Currently you can say, they accept Flexa (but not cryptos)
On the top, if I remember correctly the cashier won't even know you're paying with cryptos. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5142603.msg51031196#msg51031196 Title: Re: Amazon daughter Wholefoods going to accept Bitcoin and other Crypto?!

And it is now going to be easily used to pay for those coffee at starbucks and easily buy some groceries at Wholefoods.

This kind of adoption is what we're waiting for a long time. If more adoption would occur and a lot of establishments and businesses would accept bitcoin, I'm sure that it would bloom and grow continuously.
