It would be very convenient to have the opportunity every day in any place to be counted by the bitcoins. In our country there is no such opportunity, only through the Internet it is possible to make purchases.
The same happens in my country there are no stores that accept payments in bitcoin and even in stores where you could expect to find more modern and informed people like in stores that sell hardware for computers we are unable to pay with bitcoin and people have not even heard about bitcoin at all.

If you are not able to shop with bitcoin in your country, you can do something.
You can shop with your bitcoin at your friends workplace. You can offer people to make payments with bitcoin.

How can you actually do that?
You move to your friends country to do bitcoin shopping?

How can you offer people to make payments in bitcoin when you're not selling anything?
Really , what is with those suggestions?



I think he meant that if one of our friends works in a shop that sells products that you offer to pay them in bitcoin instead of using fiat, but unless they are the owners of the shop then they are probably not going to accept bitcoin at all in the shop.


Merchants will start accepting bitcoins as a mode of payment only if the people around them are aware about bitcoins and are willing to pay in bitcoins and if none is aware about bitcoin then there is no point in accepting bitcoins as a payment method.
Merchants will accept bitcoin if it's profitable for them, they don't care about people awareness or whatever, it's simple and all is about profit, it's fact

So if no one is using bitcoins as a mode of payment then how they will make profits out of it? If they want to make profits then they also should get enough traffic and if people are not aware about bitcoins then you cannot expect that they will shop using bitcoins.
