Russia should support the national producer and to accept Etherum as payment But as I know Burger King is American firm, so I think they just decided to star from Russia, because of Bitcoin is still not so known there.

I'm not paying for burger king in Russia or any other country. Going to be cash every time, and you know why? FEES. I don't pay any fees to spend fiat except sales tax, and I'd have to pay anyway with bitcoin. The confirmation times are also a deal breaker for me too. There's no reason to spend bitcoin when fiat works just as well. Sorry to piss on your parade.

Good to hear that big companies are starting to accept Bitcoin and see the cryptocurrency with good eyes.
The only problem: 5$ for the burger and another 5$ for the tx fees. I'm actually curious to see how this is going to work with the Bitcoin network delay to confirm a transaction.
I also thought about it. I think this service will be interesting only for miners and traders and I do not think there are so many of them in Russia. But I can be wrong, maybe there is a pretty strong bitcoin community.

I'm wondering what will happen. Is this really gonna work? There's a lot of questions running in my mind right now. I can't imagine what if all of the fastfoods, groceries stores, convenience stores, department stores are accepting bitcoins.
Here are the things that's in my hear right now.
1. About the transaction time we all know that there are 3 types of transaction low (which is the slowest) the normal and the last which is the fastest. What if they're going to pay for low fee since it's the cheapest are they going to wait a lot of time before receiving and approving that the bitcoin arrives? I mean they're going to wait to receive the bitcoins before giving the burger? (just an example)
2. About the transaction fee, we all know that whenever we transfer bitcoins to another account or wallet we need to pay for the transaction fee so it means that if we're going to buy 4$ worth of food and we're going to pay thru bitcoins (Bitcoin worth 4$ + transaction fee) it will add more instead of just paying 4$

If Burget king is accept bitcoin, there will be a chance for another country to accept bitcoin as well As I know Russia is ready to legalize bitcoin just like japanese did so I'm sure bitcoin value will bubble soon

There can be a few workarounds At least, until Lightning Network and payment channels are implemented and start working for real. For example, a certain fastfood chain (like Burger King and their likes) could use a major web wallet like Xapo or Coinbase, so if you want a hassle free service, you can create such a wallet yourself and use it specifically for payment in these eateries. Transactions between the accounts of the same web wallet are instant and free of charge, and it seems to me that it will become a preferred way of payment if all these stores and fastfoods are going to massively accept Bitcoin

One minute silence for all those who will try to buy burgers and fast foods with bitcoins. I will have an open proposal to them, that please sell your bitcoins to me at the market price minus transaction fees. I will happily buy your bitcoin and keep it as an investment to see a better future. My suggestion is that, don't waste your bitcoins for buying food or anything else. Instead take it as an investment. I hope everyone is aware about the bitcoin pizza day. I am sure, that guy who bought 2 pizzas in 10k bitcoin, is deeply regretting now. His two pizzas in 2010 is worth 25 million USD now. Now the choice is yours. Spend it and regret later or save it and make your future better.

If this implementation is successful, I am sure that every branch of burger king all around the world will accept bitcoin and this will be a great news. Anyway, this acceptance can be a good start for burger king to venture in the world of cryptocurrency, this will definitely help in spreading awareness about bitcoins.

First restaurant in Russian capital accepts payment in bitcoin: http://bit.ly/2slJstl
I didn't feel like making a second thread regarding another restaurant accepting bitcoin so I thought share it with you here. It's worth mentioning that this restaurant is huge and have a lot of good reviews If you check it on google maps: http://bit.ly/2unR8HX

Lol everytime that I am seeing a thread or news like this that a certain restaurant, fast food whatsover is starting to accept bitcoin I always feel jealous of the bitcoin user or people from a certain country and because most of the countries that has this adoption are from the western part of the globe . I really wish that in my country bitcoin will be accepted by most fast food or restaurants .

its actually a very good news even for those who are not in Russia because other shops and restaurants can inspired by this as because everyone tries to beat their competitors and some even tries to copy the strategies of their competitors. it will be soon available around he world as I know many regions around the world do not even have pizza shop. I proud to be a bitcoiner

A good marketing step. The use of the fashionable bitcoin theme to attract the attention of the media to their restaurant - it's smart and reasonable. Gradually bitcoin will become our daily reality.

Burger for bitcoin, here we go people but too bad it's only on Russia this will make bitcoin add's popularity.
Waiting for other restaurants locally to accept bitcoin. I think it will be only a test phase for Burger king Russia.
Once it gets successful they will adopt worldwide.

It is good to see a fast food big chain to accept bitcoins for payment, but I really wonder how many customers are willing to pay a higher amount than the usual just to buy a burger due to the high miner fees at the moment, I suppose we will be able to see bitcoins being used more often in our daily life after 1st august if the problem of high miner fees and slow transaction speed are solve.
