Is there an update on BTC alcohol sales, were they able to get it approved/unblocked in Ohio?

We are also seeing a great deal of customers and community members vocally applauding the efforts even though they are not Bitcoiners. They visit the stores and tell the merchants how great this is for our city. In fact, I personally can't recall having even one adverse reaction to date from anyone. The merchants love the experience, and one is already switching over from holding 100% USD to 100% BTC. We also have new merchants interested in moving forward, not only on the street but around greater Cleveland. So, our work is continuing.
Still working on the alcohol situation, just had some correspondence with them today in fact. No resolution yet, but far from over.

~5 years ago I used to make it to Ohio once a year, but not recently. If/when I make it back Bitcoin Blvd will be a must see. |
