for the few places that do accept bitcoin, do you currently spend the coins you hold at any of them?I know places like
www.takeaway.com accept bitcoin and i even heard
CEX.co.uk accept bitcoin in stores now too, but does anyone spend the bitcoins they have or do most just onto hold them? (Or gamble them lol)
I wonder if there will ever be any retailers that
only accept bitcoin.
There are many services/merchants/shops accepting bitcoin right now, and the number is growing. The problem is that usually payment with bitcoin is not widely announced and are often hidden under debit/credit, paypal and bank transfer method of payment. Usually you can chose bitcoin payment only if you are finalizing your purchase.
Most merchants have a bitcoin payment gateway banner. Normally when i browse the web and i see this i stay longer to check if they got some promotions.
Funny, because I did the same when i saw a paypal banner before.
