According to a Deloitte survey, one-third of merchants want to accept bitcoin payments.

Deloitte, the world’s largest accounting firm, conducted a survey from December 3–16, 2021. What is the goal? to assess the likelihood of retail merchant stores accepting bitcoin as payment for cosmetics, electronics, food and beverages, fashion, and transportation

One of the most interesting things they found was that retailers thought consumers’ interest in paying with bitcoin had grown by 3200% in a year, so they expected their suppliers to accept bitcoin as well.

30% of the 2,000 participating merchants had already integrated bitcoin payments into their sales systems. And 39% planned to complete their setups within the next 12 months.

Eight months later, the price of bitcoin is still relatively low.

Hodlers, on the other hand, will not be shaken. Innovations like the Lightning Network are paving the way because they cut costs and make it easier for people to work together.

Bitcoiners will be pumped up by events like the Bitcoin Zitadelle conference, which will keep them on the right track in terms of monetary righteousness.

Microsoft, Whole Foods, and Gyft, among others, accept bitcoin as payment, as do approximately 15,000 other businesses worldwide. And, while you cannot pay with bitcoin on Amazon, you can buy bitcoin gift cards at Bitrefill and redeem them on the world’s largest online retailer websites.

So, Jeff, what are you waiting for?
