This guy..Antonopoulos... really cool.

"Popular Bitcoin advocate and Blockchain’s chief security officer, Andreas Antonopoulos started a “We Accept Bitcoin” campaign on Reddit. Since Yelp, a business review website, recently allowed businesses who accept Bitcoin to indicate that they do so on its website, Antonopoulos thinks it’s time to make the most of Yelp. He proposes,

    “That we create a new vinyl sticker with ‘We Accept Bitcoin’ with the bitcoin logo and send these to any business that we find on Yelp taking bitcoin.”

Initially the plan was to incorporate both the Yelp and Bitcoin logo into one vinyl sticker, however many redditors did not approve of the idea. They said that they either didn’t like Yelp or didn’t like using its logo without authorization. As such, Antonopoulos updated his post and wrote that the plan will work if just the “We Accept Bitcoin” vinyl sticker is sent to Bitcoin accepting Yelp businesses."


First, I pictured a lighted BTC sign. 
That would cost way too much; This is just a vinyl sticker and a really good idea.

Plenty of options available. 157x58mm paper stickers are available for $1.

Or better, .5″ x 3.25″ vinyl stickers are available for around $1.50 apiece.

On Reddit he was asking for help with the design (I think), or maybe they can use these.

Such a simple idea, yet someone needed to get it started.
This isn't so much for "us", it's the millions of people who will eventually learn about BTC from seeing the stickers in a growing number  of places.

Agreed. And I thought that this was a better idea when compared to stickers.

I would very much support places that Accept Bitcoins. I would actually pay significantly higher amounts for an option to not have to deal with fiat.
