Re: What about the idea of a bitcoin shop in big cities?

Hey Guys,

what would be your opinion if there would been Bitcoin shops in big cities like London, Berlin or Paris (also smaller cities).
So you could go inside the shop and buy or sell Bitcoin for a good price.

I think it would be an good (and an advantage) idea because more people would use Bitcoin so the price would rise up and the people who are owning Bitcoins at the moment would have more money in Bitcoins. Wink

Best regards,

I love the idea of a bitcoin shop but I think if someone decides to open a shop like that then you probably going to want open shop in a place that has lots of bitcoin user, so instead of choosing a city in Europe, you could choose Tokyo now that Japan has recognized bitcoin as money.

yes that is really a good idea,but i think it is also very difficult to survive in a big city, as the expense are much more there as compare to small cities.

I don't think that an actual shop might be appropriate just for buying and selling. And also there are now Bitcoin Atm machines in which you can buy and sell Bitcoin there, they also update there prices in real time equal to the market value of Bitcoin. Also Bitcoin Atm proves that even an ATM machine does not have so many customers (meaning only a few use it), could you imagine if that was a Bitcoin Shop? It would close early because of the lack of customers. If Bitcoin Atms are starting to have lines then I will consider adding another machine for it to be sufficient, But I would not even think of opening a shop just for the sake of buying and selling Bitcoin.
