Re: [Russia] Burger King to accept Bitcoin this summer!

So yeah, hopefully McDonald, Dominos pizza, and many others will follow after this. I thought that this kind of decisions are taken by the creators of the franchise but It looks like It's not since It's starting on Russia.

Now we can finally buy burgers in Russia with bitcoin instead of trying the local food? Yay Tongue

, but seriously any news like this is good news but I dont have any plans to visit Russia so I will not be able to get advantage of this.

Yeah, hopefully Burger king is able to implement the same sort of thing in countries such as the United States. It seems like that after Russia's government decided to announce their plan to legalize bitcoin fully by 2020, a lot of merchants have opened up to this new technology. Seriously, when is the US going to at least regulate bitcoin so that merchants can use it? I mean, regulation isn't necessarily a good thing for bitcoin, but at least it gets more people using it.

Burger for bitcoin, here we go people but too bad it's only on Russia this will make bitcoin add's popularity.

Waiting for other restaurants locally to accept bitcoin. I think it will be only a test phase for Burger king Russia.

Once it gets successful they will adopt worldwide.

I do not think that this will be a successful step. I am sure that this is only a marketing effect to attract media attention.

Maybe it is, but implementing bitcoin is so cheap anyways, and all you need to do is get a bitcoin wallet, and stick up the QR code for transactions. Easy as that. It's a win win situation, Burger King gets positive publicity, and so does bitcoin in russia.
