Every day we bring you positive fundamental news concerning cryptocurrencies, which, however, mostly concern the background in preparation or the institution’s entry into this sector. Today, however, we have a novelty concerning direct contact with ordinary people, specifically in the USA. In this country, the well-known company Walmart has decided to enable its customers to purchase via Bitcoin in the form of gigantic kiosks in cooperation with Coinstar.
It is also interesting that this report comes only a few weeks after the fake report, which claimed that the chain plans to adopt Litecoin as an alternative form of payment. This time, however, the information was confirmed directly by Coinstar and later by Bloomberg. In the beginning, 200 machines are ready to offer this option during the testing phase, but their total number is up to 8,000, and if everything goes according to plan, this option will be added to these kiosks as well. There is currently no further information on when the full acceptance of the cryptocurrency Bitcoin within the mentioned kiosks should arrive at Walmart, but it is already possible to search the Coinstar website for the mentioned 200 pilot BTC kiosks.
