I would like to use bitcoins to pay for my goods at shopping malls. #BlockPay 👍

Do you have a specific shopping mall where you would use BlockPay?

Let's just say, IKEA 😉

IS that a hint?

Perfect ;)

Ooooo, as I traveled around Europe after the SteemFest, I asked if I could pay for my beer with BlockPay in supermarkets. :D
I couldn't but I'd like to. The best beers were at Lawendowa 8 in Gdansk, I'd like to pay for the beers there. #BlockPay

Great choices! Thanks for entering our contest, good luck ;)

Love the video! Cool idea for the contest...

Thanks! We're looking forward to see where you would like to use Blockpay!)

i just nominated Starbucks :)

I would like to use bitcoins to pay for my underwear at @lasenza #BlockPay

I would like to use my bitcoins to pay for groceries at the local grocery store. #BlockPay

I would like to use bitcoins & SBD to pay for my Kombucha at @Buzzbrews #BlockPay

They actually already have a bitcoin machine there. I have been trying to convince them to use blockpay too and how much easier it would be ^_^

I would love to use Gridcoin (Open.GRC) at grocery stores (or even better - supermarkets) in the UK! #BlockPay

I would like to use bitcoins to make a holiday donation to my local Community Food Centre - where people come together to grow, cook, share and advocate for good food :) #BlockPay

I hope spend my SMD on coffee at a university campus restaurant in Finland called @Kvarkki #blockpay

I want to pay for all my nerdy gear with Steem Dollars, bitcoin, and more at my local Microcenter. It just makes sense.

I would like to use bitcoins to buy burritos at @Qdoba #BlockPay!

Blockpay will use bitShares MPA right? bitUSD and bitEUR have currently low liquidity. even SBD has low liquidity. How will you make a liquidity?

Here is a copy past quote from the BlockPay slack with the answer :)

that is a big challenge for us, and we are taking it. It will cost us a lot of money to create all the liq for hundred of thousand of dollars floating in. However, it will also boost the price for BTS, and make us more profits, it will also bring more attention to bitshares in general

I worked out a few plans how we can source extra funding for liq creation and to grow the mpa liq. Because think about it . Only with a mpa are you truly free. If we would give you a uia, we hold your money again.. like a bank… we don´t want to do that. we don´t want that your funds can be hacked, stolen, or lost by someone. So we are following our way and give our merchants true financial freedom through mpa´s

Bitshares mpa are a longterm project and will take months and years to grew big into the size of bitcoin, or sometimes it can happen very fast. We just need 2-3 sample projects and other communities will discover the value of mpa´s. We have tons of partners lining up who want to work with us and use a mix of mpa and uia. Most want mpa and are ok to pay down the collateral. That´s awesome :D

Hope that answers your question.

Thanks Chris for the detailed answer :) .
In case anyone else needs it like me :), MPA stands for Market Pegged Assets. @Dantheman wrote a detailed description here: http://bytemaster.github.io/article/2014/12/18/What-are-BitShares-Market-Pegged-Assets/

top thx.

I would like to pay my ÖPNV tickets in @munich with Steem and #Blockpay

I would like to use bitcoins to pay for my holiday in Shanghai, take my son to @disneyland, stay at @hilton, and buy food from local markets. This would allow me to save on expensive currency conversion and international transaction fees. #BlockPay

I would like to use BitShares to pay for my property taxes @county-courthouse #BlockPay

Also see my holiday article in a similar vein here. Happy Holidays to all, especially the team at BitShares Munich!!!
