Recently, KFC Canada has accepted Bitcoin payments for a short period of time. However, Bitcoin can only be used to place orders online, and only to purchase a new item called "Bitcoin Bucket". And all this special deal will be handled by Bitpay, a fairly common Bitcoin trading tool. Its really interesting news, I wish that I can also buy chicken with Bitcoin in my coutry. Roll Eyes

The scenario might seem little to others but this is a huge step forward towards the implementation of bitcoin as an alternative payment to products/services. KFC, one of the biggest leading fast-food chains in the world, having to accept bitcoin as a payment, implies that it accepts bitcoin and understands it utilization in the market. If the blockchain technology could be further developed to uncloak its mysteries, then it may lead to enhancements or relatively scenarios (like this one) to sprung out in the public.
Though one problem that KFC might encounter is the transaction history of bitcoin towards their system. Relatively, some transactions under the blockchain take time in order to be accepted.

Yes, but only in Canada that this practice is implemented for a limited time. The company is accepting Bitcoin via BitPay as one of the options through an online check-out page. The Bitcoin Bucket will be delivered directly to the customer's address (the product also carries a $5 fee), according to the check-out process on its website.

Very interesting. If the whole country has accepted its utilization in the market, it may affect other fast-food restaurants as well (subject to the acceptance of these restaurants). Again, this is a huge step-forward in the cryptocurrency aspect as it seeks acceptance slowly from countries. Assuming that bitcoin continues to affect hegemonic countries, then expect for a wide-spread implementation- ultimately being an alternative payment soon for most services/products.
