Thats what I keep saying. Yet I see many other people dont care and keep saying that local shops should accept BTC. Its really hard to be involved in a good discussion because they dont read the posts.
Everyone, theres no need for your local shop to accept BTC. All they need is cash. Cash simply works and its faster.

Bitcoin is not for streets and local stores, I think it's better if everyone just sticks to use it as an online currency and payment method. Most of the world haven't heard about bitcoin yet. only online communities need to adopt the system, expecting the streets to adopt it is too optimistic. Explain to them about bitcoin price and encourage them to invest in it as bitcoin price is high and will continue to rise in future.
Do you truly believe that yourself or just saying it? if you do then you should be buying every day to accumulate for the future.

One of my friend on another forum told me to invest in btc to make easy profit at that time btc price was around $630-650 I've got some good profit over past few months so if people can encourage local business to invest in btc then they will for sure.

The idea of encouraging them to accept bitcoins is just another option for them and they can even do something new about it. We know that most of them are just accepting cash but this type of acceptance for their payments is somehow unique though the thing is that you just need to explain to them what bitcoin is and possibility to create another investment with it.

Regular online stores dont have to use BTC either. Thanks to the banks and credit cards, buying what you want online hasnt been so much easier. Imagine youre a regular user who doesnt own any BTC. All you have to do is search on Google and you find everything you want all payable by using your credit card. Why do I need to go to an online Bitcoin shop and do all the hassle of buying a small amount of BTC just to buy an item thats already available at a regular online shop?

It can be an option for them but what use will it be for them? Will it be worth it for them to hold BTC with all the volatility, the recently regular high mem pool size and the hassle to convert back to fiat? Are the local shops' customers BTC holders? If only adding another option is your reason, why not encourage them to accept US dollars or gold as well? Those are good options too.

It's not that an easy thing that you are going to say and encourage them easily with bitcoin that way. You must encourage them with a proof and basis so that you can encourage them properly. Encouraging them by simply explaining to them about bitcoins price and other things about bitcoin is insufficient for them.

If Uber Taxi App starts accepting BTC, then I guess its going to be easy to spread the word about bitcoin through these drivers. they travel all the time and with BTC logo on the taxi cab, I think is going to be a good way for the adoption problems we have right now. If bitcoin will be accepted, all altcoins will soon be recognized as well from major crypto like ETH, XMR, DASH and so on including the Nxt. We don't have to wait for more than 10 years to see how this could go.

Those altcoins are all ponzis and theyre all good for speculation and nothing else. How do you expect the Uber driver to feed himself with NXT? Im laughing right now as I type this. Campaigning for BTC acceptance is already hard enough.

Since they have different types of payment, cash,uberpay/grabpay,credit card then there should be some other ways like bitcoin and it's really interesting if they will allow it to happen. The word will spread very fast with their users.

I think pointing them to the price of BTC and that it will rise doesn't seem trustworthy.. You should rather try to explain how the whole System works and mention why it is better than Fiat money. Give them advantages.. then you mention side effect of rising price.

They might don't need it but if there are certain people or business owners that are very interested with the acceptance and usage of bitcoin. They will gladly accept you and there are people that are not that good with technology but wants to gain their knowledge with it and there are some that really don't care at all.

Yes we can encourage local businesses to accept bitcoin by means of letting those business owners to register at online wallet of bitcoin and fiat currency exchange. He/she will appreciate the advantages and usefullness of digital and fiat currency in terms of fast service and low transaction fees. In that aspect of bitcoin overview that online wallet that he/she will be using is a mediator of any currency that will be paid or converted as form of payment which can cash out as profit to them, through recommended bank.
Yes indeed the advantage in local businesses are getting a lot of member and will certainly get great returns, let alone our business wake up using bitccoin. Although it has many advantages but it still has a lot of harm if we do not want to secure transaction or our business properly. Because broadly speaking bitcoin is a place that is very prone to be theft.No problems did make the local business base bitcoin, but we should be able to do very well in order to benefit measurable as we want

We should still be careful implementing btc but it is RY a good way to do business.

To encourage local businesses to accept bitcoin as their another kind of payment system, we should explain how the bitcoin works and what are the good benefit of accepting and owning a bitcoin in a very short and simple way because if we explain it on a long and complicated way then they will lose their interest.

Much more we should spent on showing, how the system works and what principles and advangtages they get against other payment methods like fiat money, banking system and how easy they can manipulate there own money without any other counsel

I am looking to help move BTC forward into our economy more and would like to get some suggestions on how we can get more retailers to accept BTC as a payment. The best part about accepting BTC is that they do not have any threat of charge-back from the customer. I am just looking for some more input before I start approaching some of these local retailers.
As of now bitcoin is expanding and upgrading each day. There's a big future out of bitcoin. Soon local buisness would know information about bitcoin as it becoming popular . So it's not hard for them to convinced to consider bitcoin to their business. Fast transaction , reliable wallet and the rapid increase value of bitcoin is just some of the traits that can convince people to use it as well the local bussines.

We should still be careful implementing btc but it is RY a good way to do business. Most of the people and the owners are not knowing about bitcoin in many developing and developed countries. This community is a small fraction of the entire population of the earth. However it is upto some non-profit organisation to devlelop systems to encourage the users to accept bitcoin and for owners to accept it too. Then again there is another problem - 1st impression of bitcoin is that is a hackers money, scam coin, coin for drugs etc. People consider bitcoin=scam, ponzi. Since this misconception is the first impression it is difficult to work around it and make them trust it. Because after all if you make them trust it, you have to maintain that trust. One single wrong step and they will blame you for everything, even if it was their fault.

Also tell them that if they are going to accept bitcoin they can be considered as unique business because this is not popular. If they will accept they are one of the very few in the metro that is accepting it. I agree on this part. It may lead them to become a pioneer in the bitcoin payment system. This can help them more popularity and thus make the people accept the payment mode. I have made this opinion to many of the merchants in my country already. I hope at least one of them will be accepting it in future and then others will follow the lead.
