[103deltafox]

Another business adopting bitcon.  Its nice to see that both large and small scale business are adopting this wonderful digital currency.  Hopefully many other business will adopt and use bitcoin also, this will boast its popularity a great deal

[Evgenklm]

The most important thing is that a person is doing what he likes, I hope you will not have problems with regulators in your country and will soon open a whole network of such bitcoin coffee shops.

You should consider adding your business to https://directory.bitstash.co/

It is fairly new and still in beta. But would be a great place to add your business if you are accepting cryptocurrency!

Wow it is nice because you are accepting bitcoin maybe people here in London once they see your store and they see bitcoin payment they will go to order foods or drinks to your store. Goodluck to your business I hope it will grow because you accepting bitcoin and bitcoin can help to your business smart Idea!. If I have enough funds I will going to accept bitcoin if I build grocery store.

It's good that your cafe has such a payment method in BTC for delicious coffee. The only problem is that while you are waiting for the receipt of BTC on your wallet can take a long time. You don't let the cafe client go until the funds are in your wallet? To make the transaction go quickly, you need to pay a large Commission, which can cost more than a Cup of coffee

   You are the one who is moving the progress and inform everybody about such things as crypto.
   How is your crypto payments are going for now? It's interesting to hear what have changed from February.

Hey guys how you doing, hope y'all well.
I run a Pop-up Coffee Bar inside the Record Store in Camden / London.



Yesterday I announced that I accept Bitcoin for your caffeine fix:

To make most of it I need a good list of Bitcoin Merchant Directories where I can add my business.

I added my business in few of them but I need much more. If you have a y link or any handy list, please share. Have a good one!

You did a good job. But I do have a question, before you started accepting crypto (bitcoin) in your bar, was it done out of customer's request or you just decided that you should do such?? And how many people has come to your bar and made payments with Bitcoins?? Oh and before you get this, hope you know that you should also get to know the laws about Bitcoin in your country, in case your country is one of those that are jailing people for ten years for making use of cryptocurrency. Kudos man.

At first i was like " wow! Another shop acccepts bitcoin as payment, my time finally come and i can use it as a real currency" then after reading the post, it seems like our location is on the opposite side of the globe. Even though i want to buy in your cafe, your too far mate. Stores here in the country is so slow to accept BTC i hope i can avail or open soon.

It is pop coffee bar. Maybe, two months ahead star bucks will also merge this payment method. I love coffee. That is my morning's energy. It is also my night jamming friend. And it is good if I can buy a cup of it using my bitcoin. If ever there is an access in my town, I would not hesitate to use bitcoin to pay it.

[smserwan]

wow congrats bro, that's real life usage of cryptocurrency, spread the word, let the world know that crypto is not only about pump and dump market but it can be used is daily life.

Currently in my local, Indonesia, there is Diruna, a token on stellar platform quite success in real life usage too, you can see real life transaction record in their telegram channel https://t.me/diruna_auto_redeem and https://dirunapoint.com

This is going to help convince a lot of. Your customers to try out Bitcoin. Those that never heard about cryptocurrency before would be forced to try it out and see how it works, even those that knows about it and have never made use of it would like to try it. By the time they come there to take coffee like up to ten times and keeps on seeing that Bitcoin logo, they would be forced to try it out someday. Keep it up you're doing a great job and I hope your business continues to grow very big more than what it is now, so that it can help to get many people to make use of cryptocurrency.

[julerz12]

This is great! Even if it is just a small scale business just like yours, it is still a progress towards mass adoption of bitcoin/cryptocurrencies.
Hopefully, some other business within your vicinity would follow suit and maybe you should also try accepting other cryptocurrencies, not the shitty ones but those which are on the top 10 of CMC.
Who knows, maybe someone with a bunch of Litecoin would want to drink a barrel of coffee.

[noormcs5]

I just want to congratulate you. Maybe it would be even better to introduce the payment with few altcoins.

Further more it is always difficult to take such a step and once people see bar accepting bitcoin, other coffee and drinking bars may introduce the option of payment in crypto. The important thing here is that many business introduce bitcoin as payment method and sooner we see all the malls and shops give us the option of payment in crypto.

You could of start accepting other CC aswell, Like Litecoin for example.

on twitter I also found a woman using bitcoincash to buy clothes. unfortunately I did not save the video link.
it looks great and easy, very much in a country that gives freedom to its citizens.

In my country as well people are totally free to use crypto currency to buy goods and to sell, it made our life easy when you are at work we can easily get profit, when you are going out away with allot of money it can put harm for your life but if you have bitcoin or crypto it will be easy to carry safely with you.

[nuco.cloud]

Surely this is time to send you allot of congratulation to the person who is using crypto currency, specially bitcoin because I have seen allot of successful bars using only bitcoin as payment, it is much better for people who come to visit because in now almost everyone is using bitcoin for buying goods around the world, so I also would like to visit so it will help you to expand your business.

That’s really nice, it’s not everyone that can do such a thing, you have really tried in doing this. But one thing I’d like to let you know is that you’re going to be careful, because you know that the price of Bitcoin is not like fiat that is mainly stable, so you should be checking on your coins to know when the price starts to fall and why I’m saying this is because you will be needing those money you are paid to buy the things you will need to continue you’re business the next day. So you will have to be checking in on it and know what is happening, so that you don’t abandon the money and it will end up losing value. Unless you plan to hodl it.

Bitcoin has one drawback that is, it is slow in confirmation time. There are many other altcoins whom transactions gets confirmed within seconds the transactions are made. Business may prefer such altcoins in the business which requires quick confirmation like in coffee bar etc.

There's lightning already, most business such this used lightning, no confirmation needed or whatsoever. In the case of OP, well, he can implement this one on his store, and I'm sure many will like it.
But at this moment he just have to understand that once there's a huge backlog in the network there might people will not use BTC but only cash or any alternatives that  the store accepts.
