RE: Starbucks Wants to Accept Cryptocurrencies - Lets Get STEEM There!

in #steemit6 years ago (edited)

It only makes sense from a business point of view, bitcoin transaction fees would cost more than the coffee, plus payment takes hours. STEEM on the other hand has free transactions and take seconds!

Sort:  

How? And this is assuming it stays the same forever.

Have you ever tried sending a bitcoin transaction for $4? Fees are based on data size, not amount sent. A transaction for $4 would be completeley eaten by transaction fees if you wanted it to get any confirmations.

The hot Cappuccino would be cold by the time the BTC payment is confirmed! Lol
