Several high end brands like Christofle Paris and the Bel-Air Fine Art Gallery have already adopted the Aditus crypto payment gateway. It definitely feels like a strategic move in keeping up with the times as they could tap into a new segment of the market (i.e those who hold their wealth in crypto).
On a smaller scale though, would you consider buying something more mundane like a cup of coffee with crypto? Not sure how that would play out with the volatility of the market and other factors.
Why not? If will be very great if we can buy a cup of coffee with cryptocurrency.
But if the payment confirmation takes very long then i will not use cryptocurrency to buy something. I will use if its already quick.
Oh it would definitely be great! But like you said, transaction time might be an issue with these quick purchases. Now if you were buying something online or maybe even buying real-estate overseas it would be less of an issue, but for quick transactions like coffee that would definitely pose some problems.
I actually got the coffee example from this:
