Walmart Sells Bitcoin at $1

[bitcoindusts]

Reading on through the article you shared, it is in good light to have a milk chocolate branded as bitcoin to stamp awareness to Walmart's shoppers.

It is actually nice to finally have bitcoin back in its most affordable state. Now everybody can have a taste to how it feels owning a bitcoin #smiles #winks

But nonetheless, Frankford's chocolate bitcoin would really stir a lot of curiosity to many who have not yet heard of our most favored cryptocurrency. In many ways, it does help promote bitcoin, a necessity we need these days to grow the market stronger.

a good idea to expand the use of bitcoin, this can make a lot of people see and they start to find out what bitcoin is. Although it sounds a little deceptive when on Wallmart sells $ 1 of bitcoin, but this is one good step to attract the attention of the public

[Gabrielexas]

I do not like that, because we have spent a lot of time to explain to people that Bitcoin is not a physical coin and now

Walmart is selling cheap candy in a form of a physical Bitcoin to create more confusion. People are having a hard enough time,

trying to understand the Bitcoin concept and the awesome technology behind it, for Walmart to come in and destroying what

we had been trying to explain for years. 

I'm not sure it is bad. I still believe that even "bad" publicity still good publicity

This is a good marketing strategy to make the people be aware of bitcoin and I hope this would inspire other businesses too to have other kinds of strategy for the people to know that bitcoin does exist even though it is in the form of chocolate. A food would be a good pick because it can attract all ages. The price may be a little confusing but still whatever makes the people be aware of it then it is good.

Nice strategy they got. It is an interesting way to catch the interests of an individuals about bitcoin. Their strategic idea makes bitcoin more popular. Though kids may have confusions as to what really bitcoin is and how can that bitcoin be use. They may be interested but not all kids may understand it well.

At least even if kids do not understand it yet, it is already instilled in their minds that bitcoin does exist and sooner or later, they would be able to remember it and check what it is. This is a really good strategy getting the attention of all people in all ages.

Besides being interesting, this can also be a very good business opportunity, so people can get to know Bitcoin. I've seen movies with the title Bitcoin, this is something very interesting. everyone will go into bitcoin, because everyone will hunt for Bitcoin.

[Vannie12]

I think that it is a good way to promote bitcoins that way too. People will surely be aware of cryptocurrencies one step at a time. We do know that it is almost a decade old but still not have the greatest reputation it might get.

But by ways of promoting it through other things makes sense and making it less scary to know about it.

[dothebeats]

This is actually a great move to spread awareness regarding bitcoin. While the ones they are selling is in the form of $1 candies, they'd instill curiosity on the minds of those who bought it or came across it. Nice marketing stunt which doesn't hurt the bank but gives awareness overall. With this move, we at least know that Walmart loves the concept of bitcoin, or just using the hype it might generate to boost up sales.

Seems like a good way to sell your chocolate people might think it is funny to say heres some Bitcoin and give them the chocolate coins.

I don't think it will do much to the Bitcoin market but as Bitcoin starts to normalize in the minds of more people it will help adoption this wont hurt it.

Bitcoin is always bringing the attention even at Wal-Mart check this out https://techcrunch.com/2018/09/11/walmart-is-now-selling-bitcoins-for-1/?guccounter=1
Sounds funny and maybe not of great interest but that kind of selling propaganda gives 3 good things:

1st) It makes more people to know bitcoin
2nd) The kids start to know there is something out there called Bitcoin
3rd) As it is in chocolate, bitcoin will be engraved in the mind of those who try as a sweet and nice thing.  

wow, that's a great marketing strategy. It seems Walmart has invested a lot of money into Bitcoin and now they are advertising free of charge to Bitcoin. I feel quite excited about this and I think the future of Bitcoin is very good in the future.

[locsta123]

haha this is awesome I can really only see positive coming from this people will gain awareness and KIDS! will get involved whenever kids want something it becomes instantly popular!

[tweetbit]

My sweet tongue wanted more than images. Bring it home with me. Wallmart I'm coming.

Waiting for negative reaction from the ”true bitcoin” hallucinating team.

A QR code with 20$ btc in random packages inside will start a hype: suggestion: Panic buying be like.

I think it is a good conversation starter and also a nice Xmas/Birthday gift to add to other bigger gifts. <I would even add a little Paper wallet with some real bitcoin to those coins. I am definitely going to buy some coins and then hand them out at the office, because I am the "Go to" person in the office for all the Bitcoin related questions.   

Does this mean, Bitcoin has gone mainstream now.

Lol only stupid person in cryptocurrency will believe this one,but this was a good marketing strategy then and for me this will favor the bitcoin community since we have been use for this propaganda

You are right to say, young children who eat chocolate should already get used to the fact that there is bitcoin. A lot more people will see that bitcoin is around, it is even in chocolate, it's great news, though funny!

[jeffer8035]

I imagine that the walmart was full that day of trader looking for that offer of a bitcoin dollar but what they gave was a chocolate but that is good more advertising without doubt the children when they are 15 or 16 years old or less will enter I crypto more quickly since they know their name since 2 years mass adoption preparing the mass for the future when this most active in the world bitcoin will always want to use the name of bitcoin for advertising and multi products, financial applications and consumer products will attract more attention to block chains in the future will be used only bitcoins

[Ray55]

Even after the Bitcoin has been for so many years, but 60-70% of peoples do not use it. Children are our future, It is a great idea to promote Bitcoin in the hands of children, by Walmart. If you use Bitcoin with delicious things like Chocolate, Sweets from the early age, they will become accustomed to Bitcoin too.
Thank you, Walmart, for a great idea for Bitcoin

[Dudeperfect]

That's a good idea to build awareness or at least grab the eyeballs towards Bitcoin. This made me think of my Bitcoin memorabilia (gold colour coin). The year 2017 was the year when Bitcoin and blockchain technology went mainstream and no doubt that this momentum will continue in the coming years and we will see the actual ground level use of it soon across the world.

[Kuga_ZA]

That's pretty cool, dirty trick but pretty cool. Hopefully this will get the dumb money interested in BTC so the price can rally

it's very funny but it's meaning and impressive with many people around the world . This attention will bring some beautiful words to bitcoin and also the crypto-community . Therefore Bitcoin will be known more from the people around the world.

Nice to see that. Now bitcoin and digital currency will get attention of average people and it will be in knowledge of today's kid by their childhood.
