This post is a reminder that Visa and Mastercard are two american companies and that every time you pay for something with your credit card you are most likely paying taxes to trump and his goons.
This post is also intended to be a provocation to all the crypto haters and the cashless payment fanatics.
You just said “one place”
Proton or Mullvad if you prefer.
I concede that there are online services that aren’t money laundering fronts or drug marketplaces that accept cryptocurrency as payment. OP also provided examples of online services accepting bitcoin.
I should have been more specific, my mistake. I was thinking more about every day purchases like groceries in a brick and mortar shop.
That is fair enough, I have just seen your other response mentioning brick and mortar stores now as well. I do realise we are in a buy European community but I thought you wanted just one example anywhere of somewhere that accepted crypto.
I have seen a couple of places IRL that accepted BTC but they were very small, independent stores that I’m guessing the owners were into crypto and just wanted to add the option as it was their interest. It certainly isn’t something you can rely on to purchase your weekly shop or whatever which I guess is more what you were going for.
It’s all good, my snarkiness tends to get me into more trouble than I intended. I appreciate you taking your time to respond and taking my request seriously.
Exactly, until my Grandmother can withdraw her monero from an ATM and pay for her tobacco with it I just don’t see how crypto can ever replace FIAT.
Same thing with an apple pay feature possibly. Might real time sell the coins and convert to cash in the payment process, or if it’s an established coin the business may eventually just accept it like cash or debit.
