Bitcoin was invented for the reason of being used as a method of payment and replace local fiat currency. After the step that the German Tourist Board has taken, it seems that it is moving closer to its goal and succeeding in the purpose for what it was created for. This will surely increase the currency aspect of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as it will encourage common people to use it in their daily life usage in markets and shops etc.

Petra Hedorfer, chair of the board of GNTB, explains: “Within our digitalisation strategy we continuously test newest technologies and trends to see if they could be useful for our company. Through accepting cryptocurrencies as a payment method and the possible medium-term implementation of the blockchain technology in our finance sector our international company wishes to set ourselves apart as an innovator and instigator within the tourism industry.” (Source: http://www.tradearabia.com/news/BANK_338291.html ) This is a very strong statement and it shows how the acceptance of crypto currencies is soon becoming widespread and the day is not too far when such kind of realization would dawn upon every global organization. It shows that how people have started accepting the crypto network and they value the fact that it is a step ahead towards innovation and henceforth the furtherance of economic development of a nation.

Professionals continue to experiment with innovative methods to get rid of the crisis. Local currencies distributed very unfair. And people dont have anything to spend. Thats why economic expansion has become a necessity. And i think cryptocurrencies will be the new way to expand for economies.

All the above mentioned things means the cryptos are regulated and those who accept bitcoin and other cryptos are implementing KYC/AML regulations. And this is not bad, because that time most of the average people will buy the cryptos (or mine them, but not receiving them from shady businesses), so they will be fine with the regulations. For those, who are against the regulations there will always be possible to use Monero or some kind of similar and privacy focused coins. And because regulation and contol is not the same things, cryptos can remain decentralized in the future.

While this is goodnews, we can't inflate the news that we're getting. This is a random tourist board that isn't going to mean anything anyway, we need the companies inside the country accepting -- not government agencies. Both are nice, but we need more companies then governments as there are many more companies!

This is actually pretty huge, mainly because it's coming from Germany (not some small european country), and also because it's coming from the GNTB, an organization that works on behalf of the government with agencies around the world. And if the strategy to incorporate cryptocurrencies is actually succesful, it could have a snowball effect in other countries (if the govt start seeing cryptos in a positive light, then it's a matter of time before merchats do), and that will get us closer to the beginning of the adoption phase of cryptocurrencies. All in all, i'm actually excited for this news.

Tourism is one of the fields where the implementation of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies is most interesting. One of the usual concerns of tourists is having to make the currency exchange from one country to another. Bitcoin can act as a global currency with which a tourist can pay in another country without having to exchange their fiat currency to the local currency.

Yeah, more and more businesses start to accept bitcoin as a payment method and that is surely a very good thing for bitcoin and cryptocurrencies. Even though at the beginning not many people going to actually use bitcoin to pay for different things I am sure that in time the number of people that pay with bitcoin will grow dince it starts to be accepted in a lot of businesses. Also, one of the advantage of paying with bitcoin is that you can do it anywhere(of course where they accept bitcoin), so that if you dont have any money at you or you cant exchange your money in another currency you can pay directly with bitcoin

The GNTB, who works on behalf of the German federal government, intends to pilot the underpinning technology of crypto — the blockchain technology — in their finance division. In the interim, the organization will use cryptocurrencies for international payments. It is the first time a government-linked entity has come forward to accept cryptocurrencies.
