I have a Dream...

[crypto1987]

I believe that this dream is close to being realized, the number of companies that are accepting cryptocurrencies is increasing and in general the whole community, every day there are more portfolios that are easy to use, safe and efficient.

One day, I'll be able to buy daily groceries on OpenBazaar using Lightning Network.

Why Openbazaar?What makes it better than any other crypto marketplace?
It's great news that some brave merchants start accepting crypto for groceries,but they are a really small number.Probably 1 out of every 100,000 merchants will accept crypto payments,because he's familiar enough with hoe cryptocurrencies work.

Very good idea and dream. I think it will be possible in the near future. Good luck with your idea

[Sharon121212]

The dream is materialising And so to spread across so many businesses, nations and cultures.
I should say this is one news that strengths our believe in bitcoin.
I still worry about scammers the more acceptable bitcoin becomes the more involved scammers get can there be a body that protect individuals

This is not a dream it is possible someday that bitcoin is also a money to purchase and can be use to pay in everytging bills.why not as of now was using in so many ways.hopefully someday will be use all over the world and atop banned bitcoin in other countries.allow bitcoin to use as digital fiat and can accept in every kind of transaction.hopefully bitcoin.will be like a credit card that can be use where ever we are.

Dreams really do come true. Seems like we were only imagining such things to happen before, but here we are— witnessing merchants beginning to accept bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a mode of payment. Even here in our country, some services can also be bought using bitcoin. Let's just hope that more and more countries will be doing this in the future.

Best dream ever, farmers are also adopting this technology and its time for us to appreciate it. Did is just like a dream for Satoshi before and now, he’s very famous and bitcoin are being used around the universe. I wish to see that on our Bazaar someday.

One day, I'll be able to buy daily groceries on OpenBazaar using Lightning Network. Looks like the first step has been taken at Farmer's Market, University District, Seattle right now...

I also wish that it would happen soon .
I hope that the day where we could use crypto to pay for everything would come soon.
The world is still adopting on crypto and who knows maybe a year or two we could see more and more people and merchant accepting it as a payment.

[Moiyah]

It is starting to happen. There are selected merchandise who already step forward in adopting new technologies and accepted the new payment system. Lightning network seems great deploying it in payment system because it gives instant payment transactions. Be optmistic and time will come we can purchase everything under lightning network.

That's everyone's dream working in this forum.
We all want to buy our day to day things using Cryptocurrency.
But the biggest challenge that we face is the government.
It's a great dream but at the same time conflicting and hard to achieve.
Although it has been started in a very small scale but let's see.
All the best to you.

I'm happy with the information you share, I have a desire to buy groceries with bitcoin or even pay for it with it, but that seems too early to say. Hopefully the government will Early adopting it to spread the development.

That sounds great. Now what (mobile) wallets are able to use the Lightning Network?

I am personally waiting for Electrum to implement it in theirs.

I would be very happy if something like this really happened in my country. we all certainly do not expect all stores to accept bitcoin as a means of payment, but I am very sure that your hope for bitcoin in the future is as a transaction tool in various places will become a reality. because as technology advances, maybe later bitcoin will begin to be accepted by everyone in various countries as a legal payment tool. we hope so ^^

It will happen in the future if many governments accept cryptocurrency so the local store can accept cryptocurrency as the new payment methods. Maybe in some country, people can use cryptocurrency to pay in the local store so they can buy their daily needs with cryptocurrency. Yes, the world still adopting the crypto and many governments still learning more about cryptocurrency. If that happens, cryptocurrency will be a new way for people to make a transaction.

I don't think Bitcoin is used to buy small value items, Bitcoin is often used to make big deals. Because of the high transaction fees of Bitcoin, small purchases will be very wasteful.
In addition, Bitcoin value has many changes, so people will store and not use this small retail sale.

[Artemis3]

Other countries are already active on making cryptocurrency as a real medium of exchange and im here sitting, patiently waiting for some restaurants, groceries or bars that would offer crypto as payment. Im not ranting about this either, atleast the country is still not banning bitcoin although it has a silent treatment with it.

I don't think so. My country is the text book example of a country that should have abandoned fiat and moved to Bitcoin, and yet is has failed to materialize. Efforts for promoting crypto are pathetic at best, despite a few news you might read about here and there, reality in the street is that is 99% non-existent.

Elsewhere i explained that what people do is keep the crypto but at the last moment exchange the absolute minimum required. Some people still do that with fiat from other countries, mostly USD, and a few merchants do accept those fiat directly; certainly more than Bitcoin or any other altcoin. No one came campaigning for Bitcoin, but a few altcoin events have taken places, which is why you may werdingly see a "We accept Dash here" in a mall where you won't see a single Bitcoin accepted sign. Needless to say, 0 clients actually bother paying with Dash, once they calculate the exchange rate they get ripped off, so its better to stick to: exchange into fiat (yes, even from Dash). I haven't personally ever bothered with that coin, but i at lease made a couple of real transactions directly in Bitcoin. In one occasion, i was able to buy a GPU card, paying 1 sat/B as fee got confirmed in one hour, picked up the item the same day, where normally using fiat it would take AT LEAST a couple of days for the seller to confirm a bank deposit. No, you can't use our garbage fiat to buy things, because banknotes are very scarce and the biggest one isn't even worth 4 USD. When you attempt withdrawing cash from a bank, you are only allowed a SINGLE bank note per day, so think, about 4 USD in cash.

That's what you get with hyperinflation. Again, text book example...

It's not only your dream but everyone who is involved in Trading and investing in Bitcoin, I would love to travel in other countries where I only have a ledger and my cellphone I can use for verification along with my private keys and a small amount of money and use my Bitcoin for all my expenses.

That would be great, imagine traveling to other places where you have no restrictions on the amount of money you can carry, here in our country you are limited to the number of dollars you can bring out and you are heavily taxed for bringing extra.

We are all waiting for this to happen and it will happen soon.
