Last month I posted about a restaurant in Avenues that accept cryptocurrency as payment and now there are two more shops that accept crypto.
Outwest: The local lifestyle shop now accepts Bitcoin as payment
VI BY VOGULARITY: The local fashion label now accepts Bitcoin, Dogecoin and Ethereum as payment
Better Books: They have over 10,000 books including some really old ones and they accept Bitcoin as payment.
If you know of any other local shops that accept crypto let me know in the comments.

thanks!
Yup… and didnt know the bird is that docile lol
We have been accepting BTC (any any major crypto) since 2014 and have a post on our FB page to match the year. We have had about a dozen payments since then. With the cost of BTC at sky high levels, BTC payments could at best be suitable for our high end rare books collection.
Crypto is at the initial stage of Global acceptance. Soon there will be every shop accepting Cryptocurrency ฿ as a form of payment!
Crypto will be regarded as the biggest scam in history.
Why? Do you know anything about crypto to say something like that?
It’s illegal to pay by crypto currency.
Source?
I don’t think it’s illegal. AFAIK, the Central Bank of Kuwait banned banks and financial institutions from engaging in any sort of trading activity. Of course, crypto is not a legal tender but I don’t think anyone would get into trouble for simply exchanging goods & services for crypto “willingly”.
No party other than the Central Bank may issue or circulate any notes or coins or any instrument or document payable to bearer on demand and which could be circulated as legal tender, for use as means of payment in place of the currency issued in accordance with the provisions of this Law.
Any person who violates the provisions of this Article shall be subject to the penalties laid down in the Penal Code for forgery of currency notes or coins.
Did you even read or understand the blurb you just copied and pasted? It doesn’t relate to this situation or cryptocurrency. They aren’t circulating their own made up Kuwaiti notes nor are they forging ones to resemble the existing Kuwaiti currency.
Read it again, if you don’t understand it ask any economist.
You copied and pasted a snippet from Law No. 32 published in 1968 which is related to the Kuwaiti Dinar. It is not related to merchants buying and selling items in different currencies and it has absolutely nothing to do with cryptocurrency. So stop pretending you know what you’re talking about and I don’t need an economist to tell me you’re talking out of your ass.
I was like facepalm over here and then I read Mark’s comment.. Brilliant 😀
When I first became interested in $BTC, I found myself spending countless hours absorbing as much info about it as possible. And you know what.. Everyone gets Bitcoin at the price they deserve
