You can pay with Bitcoin in several stores and even restaurants here in Germany. Are we the only one who have this? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif)

I am sure there are also other countries having businesses and merchants already accepting Bitcoin just like cash. However, we have to admit it that the rate of adoption is not as high as expected all because Bitcoin has become a speculative tool rather than a currency. We have to be realistic about this...here in my country you have to take some effort to have a Bitcoin and because of this people are holding on to their coin in anticipation of the coming rise. Personally, I would not let go of my Bitcoin even if I am eating in a nice restaurant...in this case I would be using my fiat money instead.

You clearly haven't been to Japan or Netherlands and even the US. Several stores are also accepting bitcoin on the said countries and other stores are also following suit on the said idea. It's just because of the volatility that's why merchants are hesitant of accepting bitcoin as a form of payment.
If only they know that Bitpay exists.

You must be one of the good countries in Europe after the Netherlands. Japan is the country with the most wide acceptance on bitcoin, in big shopping malls or electronic malls you can pay directly with bitcoin. I am not seeing a rise in price in bitcoin about Germany stores accepting it, used to rise in price when Japan started and Australia followed a few months after. It needs more publicity from your country, a great place would be the Messe exhibition of the games industry.

I wasnt aware that you could easily pay with Bitcoin in The Netherlands and Germany in Europe. I thought I was really only being adopted mostly in the U.S, Japan and China.
In these places in The Netherlands and Germany, Is it clearly advertised or displayed that Bitcoin is accepted?

So you are making us jealous right now. Bitcoin is acceptable here in our country, we can topup our phones and even pay bills and even tuition fees but not to restaurants. I saw a documentary and bitcoin in New York is acceptable. Even in uber they are accepting bitcoin but on third party.

I don't think even the US has any restaurants or stores that accept bitcoins. There is a chance that they have stores accepting bitcoins, but I don't think it would be a lot. Though there are a lot of online services and stores that accept bitcoins. For example, Dell USA's online store accepts bitcoins.

I'm pretty sure there are some countries out there that do accept bitcoin just like in your country Germany, but if it would be accepted in my country I too would not use bitcoin to pay for my bill when I eat in a restaurant or do groceries shopping. That amount of bitcoin you will use might double up in a month or in a year and you also might regret why you didn't hold on to them. It is really not practical as of this time to spend your bitcoin, that's my thoughts on this though.

Are we the only one who have this? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) I have not been able to recognize your country because surely every country has its own community in each region. But today the development of stores that accept bitcoin is in a pretty good development around the world. So maybe someday your region will also get this positive impact. Bitcoin target is usable in everyday life. So receiving bitcoin in store and also restaurant is one of the targets to be achieved.

Not actually but in my country, we have a single restaurant currently accepting Bitcoin as a payment method. However, thanks to the domestic exchange for building awareness about Bitcoin. In last month, 50+ merchants started accepting Bitcoin and I am sure in the coming years we will have 50k+ merchants accepting Bitcoin. I am also optimistic about the larger picture and I think we will have strong Bitcoin market emerging in the coming decade.

Around the world several countries have got the chance of using bitcoin same as currency for payment and on other service necessity. In specific something that need to be discussed better is the availability of services. Right now even in stores that accept bitcoin one cannot get the product we were looking for, can buy what's available. This will change as the years pass and more people get into the using of bitcoin for each and every needs.

50 stores for the entire country of India? I would expect much more. I think Japan is pretty ahead in this case. They already got lots of giants accepting cryptos where as a country like India with a huge population should have started using Bitcoin which in turn would have increased the demand so high that Bitcoin might have reached 10k$ price by now.

One of my local hotdogs vendors plan to accept bitcoin. They open on the street. I can imagine that the big sign "bitcoin accepted here" hanging on street and every person passing by will look at it.

from my observation, Bitcoin is getting accepted in the developed countries. especially in the USA, Canada, Japan, South Korea, Australia. also, some developing countries also started to thinking to use Bitcoin. I hope, within few years, it will become accepted most of the countries in the world.

50 stores for the entire country of India? I would expect much more. They are physical stores and there were some schools also accepting donations in bitcoins while the online stores accepting bitcoins are over 500. However, mostly the big names aren't included which could help bitcoin acceptance in our country. Mostly the exchanges like coinsecure and unocoin are well known here.

It would be really nice if bitcoin will be widely accepted just like a regular cash. It will make buying easier no need to bother for a spare change.
