Paying For Subway in Germany With Bitcoin

There is another merchant in Germany who is now accepting bitcoin payments in exchange for goods and that appears to be a Subway [location in Berlin](https://mobile.twitter.com/lipa_btc/status/1563184828668751873). 

Years ago it was another location for Subway that was one of the first in the world to accept cryptocurrency for payment, at least one of the more well known worldwide brands that are out there today. Since then there have been other locations that have also been reported for accepting [bitcoin payments](https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2013/11/12/bitcoin-accepting-subway-sandwich-shop-discovered-in-the-us/), Subway came in when most of the world had not heard about cryptocurrency yet.

There are dozens of crypto [businesses](https://www.statista.com/statistics/1224741/firms-with-crypto-payment-solution-germany-city/) that are located around Germany, with over 90 of them in Berlin who either have a cryptocurrency ATM or are accepting cryptocurrency for payment.

## Germany has previously been ranked as the top [crypto-friendly](https://cointelegraph.com/news/here-is-why-germany-is-ranked-the-most-crypto-friendly-country) country.
Despite the volatility today there are many people in El Salvador, Germany, around the US, and other parts of the world, who continue to show us that they are happy to spend their cryptocurrency as a payment method to pay for sports merchandise, fast food, and more. 

Since that first well known purchase was made for pizza with BTC many years ago there have been many thousands upon thousands of exchanges that have been facilitated since then in the same fashion, thanks to the growth and acceptance of cryptocurrency around the world. 

# Money of the internet
It has been estimated that there are over 15k businesses around the world today that are accepting cryptocurrency as payment. 

## Within the next 2 years 75% of retailers [say they want](https://www.cnbc.com/2022/07/29/deloitte-75-percent-of-retailers-plan-to-accept-crypto-payments-in-2-years.html) to start accepting cryptocurrency 
Many small businesses around the world have also indicated that [they soon plan to start offering](https://www.reuters.com/technology/quarter-small-businesses-across-nine-countries-plan-offer-crypto-payments-visa-2022-01-12/) cryptocurrency as a payment option perhaps sometime this year. 

For this reason it has been suggested that perhaps this payment method is starting to go more [mainstream](https://www.reuters.com/technology/quarter-small-businesses-across-nine-countries-plan-offer-crypto-payments-visa-2022-01-12/), especially now that we have an increasing number of younger political leaders today who are embracing this innovation and these new financial products and services.

OK, certainly worth considering a visit if the adoption is more widespread.

This is good news. They are on a good way to paying for the bread (or for any food) with Bitcoin (BTC) in the grocery/bakery stores. Or in the supermarkets/hypermarkets. Or in the restaurants. Or anywhere. It would be good to use cryptocurrencies as a direct payment method for foods.
