I am not kidding when I tell you that KFC Canada (breaking news) literally has started marketing the Bitcoin Bucket and you can honestly pay in BTC. The company is all over this on twitter having fun and joking around.

I think I coined the # today (#TheChickening) -- before anyone else.

-- More main street promotion of liberty through crypto is good news.

Not a joke, I tracked 12 different sources officially on this just now. It is kinda huge news all over the crypto-sphere.

Crypto is now mainstreaming even more which is super to onboard the masses and expose them to crypto currency and real world use cases.

-- Oddly enough with the current BTC politics, the fees are about $13 USD on top of the BTC you would spend to get the chicken and other stuff.

Bitcoin bandwagoning? Yes.

Do they need a crypto consultant to help them understand the market? Yes.

Am I available to help them? Also Yes.

It is smart marketing for both the crypto and chicken loving communities.

I cannot wait for the KFC ICO lol

I am not chicken to step out and help the movement!!

A currency like LiteCoin would cost around 1/15 or 1/30th of a BTC transaction these days, and the currency would confirm LIGHTNING fast (yes, a crypto pun) -- and total tx time would be around 2 or 3 seconds max, most times.

A limited-time marketing promotion for a “Bitcoin Bucket” was launched Thursday afternoon by the quick-serve restaurant chain — so limited, in fact, that it appeared to sell out of the ten-piece chicken buckets entirely between 10 a.m. and 11 a.m. ET on Friday.

“Sure, we don’t know exactly what Bitcoins are, or how they work, but that shouldn’t come between you and some finger lickin’ good chicken,”

-- the company said in a posting on its Canadian Facebook page that featured a live tracker of the virtual currency’s value superimposed on a bucket of chicken.

KFC Official Twitter page where they tweeted funny updates on and on and on!

Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone. I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.

This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, trying to build community, put out content and engage people, help and donate to people, and I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.

I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.

Carry On.
