Bitcoin Machines at Grocery Stores!

[DinoMikeSr]

Have you seen one yet?

 

[PunkKitty]

They have been out for at least 5 years. Have you been living under a rock?

Convenience stores too.

I haven't heard anything yet to get me interested...

I must live under a rock. Never seen them. Or better yet, never looked for them.

I prefer shitcoin. Yes, it’s messy, smells bad, and I can’t find any business that accepts shitcoin. But, I’m a rebel who likes to go against the grain.

I have not noticed Bitcoin machines.
And, yes, I live under a rock.~Patrick Star

I've seen a few of them, but wouldn't know where to start. Probably owning Bitcoin would be a good place.

Given the amount of electricity and computing power being thrown at Bitcoin to keep it going, I can't say I'm a big fan of it.

There’s one in at least one grocery store here but I haven’t tried it. I already have a bunch of bitcoin I got to mail-order quasi legal research chemicals and ended up not spending.

They are not around me.

 

[nuke_diver]

Nope I don't do the shopping

Is bitcoin still a thing?

There are libertarians who think that cryptocurrency is the future and they’re still dumping money into it. Now and then something renews their hope; this year they dumped a ton of money into pro-Trump PACs because they’re convinced that he’s going to turn the USA into the crypto promised land. They’ve got him convinced that the USA needs more fossil fuel power so that it can lead the world in crypto mining or something.

Isn’t crypto currency a key part of criminal enterprise? Without crypto, won’t the supply of heroin diminish? Then, how would I get my fix?!

Only idiots are using crypto for anything illegal. In practice the “pseudo-anonymization” offered by the public ledger just makes it easy for the Department of Justice to figure out what’s going on. It’s about as stupid as trying to launder money through Citibank.

Too late. Doh!

I have not seen one of the BitCoin machines but it would definitely get some attention from me.
I am not sure if I would buy from one because I do my purchases on exchanges. I will keep my
eyes open for one.

We have them around here.... I always assume that they're placed around for various scammers to trick people into...

"We are the Microsoft... your computer are infected... here is link for our anti-virus protection... oh no. We have rebated you back $6,000 too much... we will need you to withdraw that money from your bank and go to this bit-coin machine. Or we can have you put it on 20 separate Target Gift cards....."
