Which city do you think can be the global bitcoin hub in the future?

Altus, Oklahoma.

My sister did a stint in Altus, man that place sucks balls.

I'll go with the obvious US choice: San Francisco, CA.

Denmark maybe, or some other place that has no taxes about BTC gains and little regulation

Holland doesn't have taxes on BTC (yet). Amsterdam is starting to accept Bitcoin more and more and it attracts a lot of tourists. I smell a business opportunity

Ya, Amsterdam has always been somewhat of a bitcoin haven.

Well as things look now... The hub will not be situated within the USA. {Over regulation is definately killing any form of innovation and progress}

I would rather establish a Global Bitcoin hub in a country, where there are no limitations or strict regulations hampering it's progress.

The UK is going in the right direction and they leave room for progress and open development... So my choice would be Londen.

My second choice .. Spain.

A country should consider one city to be hub.

Not really. There's not many places you can spend your coins at all there sadly.

The Bitcoin Boulevard thing was just another buzzword and only had about ten shops you could spend your coins. I'm surprised coffeshops haven't got involved yet.

Looks like a PR stunt to attract bitcoin fans to visit Amsterdam.

London can definitely a bitcoin hub in the future as the Government of London has shown their willingness to accept & adopt the bitcoin as a currency and london has always welcomed new innovations and technologies so it would be a historical mistake if they don't accept bitcoin as a currency.

In my travels around Europe I always try to find a place that uses Bitcoin when I visit. When I was in Amsterdam in the fall I went to one bar and had a beer because they accepted Bitcoin. When I asked to pay the waitress had to ask the bartender, the bartender pulled out an iPad from under the bar. It was dead so he needed to charge it up to get it going. I don't remember what the final outcome was from the iPad but he couldn't get it to work so I just paid in cash.

I went to London for a Bitcoin conference and there was only one Bitcoin place in the area, a hamburger restaurant. I couldn't really tell if it was at a location or if it was a lunch truck. It was not open on the weekend that I was there.

In Vienna the restaurant near the hotel accepted Bitcoin but it was a very high end restaurant with a long waiting list and the food they served was not all that appealing to me anyway so I did not try it.

I did find a great bar in Budapest ( http://www.ankerklub.hu ) that I was able to pay at the bar in bitcoins and they even gave me 10% off of the bill for doing so.

In Milan I went to a pizza restaurant run by a Chinese family that accepted Bitcoin. I had to help the guy a little bit to show the cashier how to use his BitPay app.

I might go to Belgium this month, I heard something about Bitcoin in one of the towns there. I'll have to check it out.

No definitive hub yet that I have seen.

I would like to be able to go to a tourist town and say I have only bitcoins, give me an itinerary for the weekend where I can eat, sleep, buy a few souvenirs and do a few tours paying for each place with bitcoins.

I guess this is the disappointing thing with bitcoin currently. It's hard to find anywhere that accepts bitcoin and when you do there always seems to be some complication.

Well hopefully that will be possible in the future. I'd really like bitcoin to be a sort of world currency that you can use at many places all around the world. I'm sure these so called hubs will grow both in size and numbers over time but it'll be a slow process I reckon.

Yeah Bitcoin will be the global currency in future and it doesn't need any global hub. Once the mass adoption is started it will be used world wide and talking about the global hub i think Shanghai can be a better option as compared to USA or London.

Most bitcoin users in China are focus on mining and trading rather than paying.
