Are Bit Coins Accepted Anywhere In Europe anywhere...
a traveler may want to spend money?
Hotels, restaurants, etc. - just curious if anyone has ever seen Bit Coins being accepted as money in European tourist things - not that I have Bit Coins or plan to but just curious. |
Bit Coins don't exist.
There are a few bricks & mortar places tourists might encounter that accept Bitcoin. There's even a decal for retailers, as this story shows: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-28816975 Slightly more tourist-oriented: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technolog...in-the-UK.html Bitcoin's semi-official listing of physical availability: http://coinmap.org/ |
Thanks flanner for your as usual intensely erudite info.
Bitcoins have one advantage it seems - no currency exchange charges, etc. and accepted all over the world (at a few places). |
"accepted all over the world "
I think you'll find the € and US$ (and probably the Bangladeshi Taka and Azeri Manat) are accepted infinitely more widely. |
Two bits was always 50 cents in U.S. coins - now a different meaning for 'shave and a haircut, two bits'.
