KFC now accepts Bitcoin!

[AriannaSantosUU]

Can't wait for other fast food establishments to join in on this opportunity. It will help drive bitcoin to become a great payment option along side VISA or Paypal. Hassle free payments with no middleman.

[Ori Mid]

Really? I think it is so cool how about the others fastfood or restaurant?

[dvillier]

Well I think this is a quite decent begin for installments utilizing bitcoins. Individuals ought to really utilize bitcoins to purchase things utilizing bitcoins now in light of the fact that in the event that they really utilize bitcoins for such installments, an ever increasing number of individuals will begin tolerating bitcoins as installment. I think this will in the long run increment and improve after some time.

Interesting! thats a major step ahead... hopefully other major stores, eateries, and outlets would accept it as a means of payment

[AleksandrKosov]

It's nothing more than a PR move and a marketing idea. There is no comfort in this. I would not pay bitcoins for chicken, it is not profitable and inconvenient.

I think it's a good publicity stunt for both parties. Thus there is a promotion of bitcoin, and also draws attention to a fast food restaurant. As a result, both remain in positive territory.

Wow. Thatbis a great news if that is really true. I will surely eat a lot at kfc now because i will now having a hard time paying now at kfc maybe they will prioritize also the btc users and also they will easily transact our orders now.

Yes! I am sure that you are going to pay more than $20 for a single piece of chicken who is only worth $3 in KFC

Did you forget that you can not pay little things just with bitcoin? The fees are going to eat it all.

I think these are still some countries that accept the payment, because there are still many countries who do not like the existence of bitcoin in their country, with this news I really am very happy with the KFC restaurant receive payment by using bitcoin as payment, but in every country have a law laws that must be obeyed, in order not to turn off the country's currency.

[jbarrera05]

i hope in philippines will do the same. this is good but i think it takes a long process to take your order

[adzino]

Well I think this is a pretty good start for payments using bitcoins. People should actually use bitcoins to buy things using bitcoins now because if they actually use bitcoins for such payments, more and more people will start accepting bitcoins as payment. I think this will eventually increase and get better over time.

Not sure if bitcoin was the best option right now. Look at the fees and let us not forget about the transaction time! Pay $20 + $5 + another $20(fee) for just a bucket of chickens? Or pay less fee and wait for hours for the delivery?

[johnwest]

What about the transaction charges and time to get even 1 confirmation, either all double spenders should attack KFC now or people are really dumb using bitcoin for food.  

Right now it cant be a regular currency, still lots of things has to be evolved.

[sollahp]

Check out my YouTube video where I dive more in depth : BREAKING NEWS KFC is now accepting Bitcoin, and Smart contracts might be legally binding!

Is this just a bucket of chicken, or a bucket of publicity stunts?

You will be able to buy a bucket of chicken in Select Canada KFC's. However you will have to order it online using Bitpay, and have it shipped to you.

Cost : Around $20 + $5 shipping + Taxes + Any other blockchain fees


What do you guys think about it?

It is indispensable to want to grow, to bless bitcoin!

The money has to be sent through bitpay, so it wont confirm until it has at least 3.

[keanne_isaac]

If this is true and be successful I know other fast food and shopping stores will adopt also and this would  be good to crypto market as a whole

[xianbits]

Do you guys think this is going to be huge for cryptocurrency or just a KFC marketing scheme?

Now that you mention it, I'm considering it might be just a witty marketing scheme. I don't think it can benefit us instead, it can make us pay more when using that service than using fiat as payment. Somewhat a good news at a first look but it's really not.

[Shwester]

It is good but only lazy and rich people give bitcoin for a chicken bucket in kFCs

[Mason.989]

That’s just beginning, I hope and I believe in future one kind of coin will be accepted. Maybe it is bitcoin, but maybe it another replacement coin. As more and more people recognize it and it will feel more popular.They are going to be richer and richer. Lets go order in kfc using our btc. I think its good too.

[Boov]

Ofcourse yes, Bitcoin will be accepted by other markets, stores and industries as mode of payment. If KFC already accepted bitcoin, Well, McDonalds and other stores will also open Bitcoin in their list. Bitcoin will be more popular if it is already listed. It would be a better news for bitcoin users.

[gordeevaar]

That is a really good new, next time I go there with my friends I will pay in Bitcoins.
