What you say seems to make more sense. Because the information provided is not enough to confirm that it is the truth. It's just that when talking about McDonald's accepting bitcoin as payment, I heard about it last year1. But I haven't heard it again this year. So I don't know whether they still accept bitcoin or not. And McDonald's only accepts Bitcoin in a few countries. But for the transactions that occurred in the OP, I don't believe it yet. But I still believe that it could be true and happen at McDonald's which accepts bitcoin in certain regions or countries.

I have heard several times before that McDonalds will accept payments with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies but none of them were from a reliable source and McDonalds didn't verify this information. Since Bitcoin is widely used especially in some countries it is of course possible for McDonalds to accept payments with Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies but frankly I don't believe such news unless McDonalds confirms the accuracy of this information.

On the other hand, I opened the reference article you forwarded to review it but since I didn't know what language the content was in I couldn't examine the details written on the subject. Additionally, I think that it isn't right for this website to share such news content and be considered a complete reference because it isn't a website that is valid as a reliable source worldwide. For this reason, since there is no content from a reliable source or confirmation by McDonalds I think it wouldn't be correct to state clearly that Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies were accepted by McDonalds last year or later.
