Stripper accepts Bitcoin!

Anyone familiar with Boston, Massachusetts, knows that the majority of bars and restaurants close up shop relatively early, often before 1 AM. So if you want to meet up with friends late night, the strip club is one of the few places to hang out and grab a beer. Last month, I was visiting Boston and in this exact situation, so I met up with a buddy at a strip club just north of Boston. We weren’t there to get lap dances, but rather, to catch up with one another on the cryptocurrency markets, since my friend is a newbie in cryptos.

This particular strip club has a separate bar area, so you can be left alone to drink and chat, if you so choose. While I was waiting for my buddy to arrive, a stripper engaged me in a conversation and we started talking about Bitcoin. I was completely shocked when she told me with a straight face “I accept Bitcoin for private dances.” Of course at first, I was astonished and did not believe her, but she then proceeded to show me a small picture of her Bitcoin QR code attached to her house keys! This immediately put a smile on my face and she made my whole night without even giving me a dance!

Now, the point of this story isn’t to get holders of Bitcoin excited about getting lap dances at strip clubs in Boston. In fact, she was the only forward thinking dancer in the entire club that accepted Bitcoin and several other cryptos. The main point is that she preferred to be paid in Bitcoin. Her thought process had completely shifted out of US dollars and she was pricing services in terms of Bitcoin. Obviously, those poor fools who paid with Bitcoin that night wish they had paid in dollars, since the price of Bitcoin has nearly doubled against the US dollar since last month.

We are still in the early adopter stage of cryptocurrency, and no one has exact statistics on how many people actually own a bitcoin. Most experts would agree it is yet to go mainstream, along with several other cryptocurrencies that are slowly joining the billion dollar club. So….. if Bitcoin is good enough for a large company like Fidelity to track it, and it is good enough for a Goldman Sachs analyst to recommend it, what else do you want? Oh yeah, and strippers are accepting it too!
