Arnhem world's most Bitcoin friendly city located in Netherlands, you can buy everything with bitcoin in it.
Arnhem Bitcoinstad" ('Bitcoin City') as they call it, came into existence when three Bitcoin enthusiasts decided they wanted to be able to spend bitcoins in their own town. They went on a mission to convince local bars and restaurant owners to accept bitcoin payments. At the opening at May 28th 2014, 15 places accepted bitcoins. Since then, more and more shop owners joined them so you can buy a greater diversity of products and pay with Bitcoin in Arnhem.
What we will have next, Bitcoin Country?
What other Bitcoin friendly places you would recommend?
At first I thought it's a small town with population under 20,000, so it wasn't a big deal to convince almost every place there to accept Bitcoin. But then I googled it. Wow! Arnhem's population is over 150,000 and it is one of the largest cities of the Netherlands. Good job, guys! That's a great example for all of us to follow.
Yes. I think so. If they've turned the town into a BTC city, its not impossible after all to turn more and more town to accept bitcoin for their daily spending. Its going to be a challenge but still worth the try because it will help BTC in the end and also to the crypto.
There is a remittance service in our country that accepts btc to pay our utility bills but I think they are going to cash out btc into cash and pay our bills, this is nothing compare to the actual sending BTC to a btc address to pay. Maybe someday we can do this in our country.
