[Bitcoin]: 260,000+ Stores To Accept Bitcoin As A Payment In Japan. Has Disruption Already Begun ?

in #bitcoins7 years ago (edited)

Bitcoin has become a worldwide phenomenon now, it is no longer an investment option but is rather being used what it was originally designed for, transactions. Japan seems to take lead forward in it. 

Recruit Life Style announced announced a partnership with Japan's premiere exchange Coinchange in April to enable more than 260,000 stores with Bitcoin payments.  




On Monday, they relieved that their first Point of Sale[PoS] appp is ready which would enable Bitcoin transaction using the Air Regi interface. Japaneese eye glass chain, Megane Super announced their 334 stores across Japan will now accept bitcoins as payments, using Air Regi interface. The company is also looking to expand the user base across US and Europe with this new way of convenience. 

Quoting from Bitcoin.com,

Kagayaki Kawabata, Coincheck International Business Developer, confirmed to Bitcoin.com that the eyeglasses stores are the first of the 260,000+ stores that will start accepting bitcoin using the Air Regi app. He added: Some other stores are also preparing Air Regi bitcoin payments…Also, adding to existing 260,000 stores that already use Air Regi, we will cooperate with Recruit Lifestyle to expand the stores that accept bitcoin. 

This news came soon after Japan removed the 8% consumption tax on the cryptocurrencies.  

Japan has always led the world with example and has done that time as well. 

Is this the way to the new future ? Has the disruption already begun ?
