athena2007 Posted August 6, 2018 #1 Posted August 6, 2018 There seems to be a misunderstand that STABUCKS was going to accept BTC and ALTCOINS for purchases in its establishments . Really they are starting a new venture creating a platform, Bakkt, to “convert digital assets like Bitcoin into U.S. dollars, which can be used at Starbucks,” Me personally i dont like paying 6 dollars for a coffee so it wouldnt bother me as starbucks is too expensive .. Would you prefer to pay for your coffee with btc or altcoins.. ??? SOURCE: https://cointelegraph.com/news/no-coffee-for-bitcoin-starbucks-clarifies-as-media-misrepresent-its-new-crypto-venture

Han2x Posted August 6, 2018 #3 Posted August 6, 2018 I love to do a transaction like that. Never tried buying anything with Bitcoin or altcoin directly. I hope it will be available soon in my place. Not for the item but for the experience and to prove to my friends that don't really believe on crypto that it has a value.

Likewise, I want to prove to friends crypto has value! If I had to choose between using an altcoin or BTC to buy coffee, I would use BTC. 😀

bmg Posted August 12, 2018 #6 Posted August 12, 2018 I use my Btc to buy things like Starbucks all the time. I put btc on my Bitpay Visa card and use it as a Debit card to buy anything wherever Visa is accepted

wry Posted August 16, 2018 #14 Posted August 16, 2018 This would be good for adoption, and as an alternate payment system adoption is key, so I'd view this as good news. Your headline is misleading however.
