Yesterday I helped this Leeds cafe / cyrstal shop with a way to accept bitcoin

Congrat man, that is great work. Keep spreading the word. BTC is here to stay! 

Thanks dude. Think I'll probably hang around this forum more in the future too. Seems quite good.

You are a bitcoin enthusiast and you did not know about the greatest bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general forum in the world? That a new.
Anyway I would like to thank you for that story it is really great that people like you are spreading the bitcoin gospel to the people. I hope to hear more news from you in the future. But I want to ask something: how much did that cafe earn from bitcoin? Did people are using bitcoin to pay for their meals there often? Or bitcoin is just a small curiosity for most of people?

I knew about it, but I hardly ever came on here and had never posted until this time. I will definitely post more in the future.

The cafe has only been accepting bitcoin since Saturday and their staff and owners have lots to learn. A friend and I spent some bitcoins on saturday to get them started, and only added them to coinmap yesterday. Small steps at the moment, but we'll see how it goes.

Good on you for helping out a local buisness and spreading the name of bitcoin in a positive way. My friend posted on craiglist for help with this and a "btc expert" emailed him telling him hes stupid and if he doesn't know how to do it he should not accept it.

Good work on getting a success on the first attempt OP. 

I had one merchant {A shop selling gadgets} that I had to visit 22 times for them to see the light. {I have to add, I did send some friends... to ask.. "Do you accept Bitcoin?"}

The more people asking would increase the interest from merchants to accept. {At one stage they will ask themselves... What the hell is Bitcoin... and why is everyone asking about it?}

We now buy gadgets at this shop with BTC

Might be a late reply but.. Good job! I hope you will continue to pressure more shops to accept Bitcoin. They are going to be a successful cafe in the future. Well.. at least they will have some reputation in the Bitcoin world.

Great work mate. Did you set them up with bitpay?

Just an update if any of you guys are interested?

The cafe had their first customer on Thursday. They apparently rang in advance and also came back the next day for some breakfast. They were staying in a Bed and Breakfast, so were obviously just visiting Leeds for a few days. I think they may have gone back this weekend to buy some more food and something from the Crystal shop.

Great news

Good.
Hopefully more shop or cafe accept bitcoin as a means of payment, then Bitcoin will be more famous.
