Wechat taking over!

lol, yes alipay and wechat almost take over the waiter already.
anyway , it is very convenient for me , and i like it.

Do you ever pay with Bitcoin or crypto?

No, no shop will accept digital currency, the gov will ban it even some shop willing to, because bitcoin will threaten gov currency RMB.
Where are you from? Tell me the situation in your country.

I am from Brooklyn, NY. Politics are pretty crazy right now in the US. There is a big divide between the Left (Democrats) and the Right (Republicans). It is the biggest divide I have ever witnessed. The Left hates President Trump and everything he does. They fight him every step of the way. How about in China, do you have a political divide?

Sorry, it's me not make it clear, what I am trying to ask is the policy situation /attitude of gov to bitcoin & crypto.
By the way, China has only one party, they just fight in the 'house ' ,and nobody knows what is happening there. they don't want let us know anything about politics in China or abroad, ban the vpn is an evidence recently. For your reference, we can't visit YouTube twitter fb for years.

Bitcoin is still in the early stages here in the US. In NYC I don't know too many places that accept Bitcoin. We do have a Bitpay card that you can use, but you have to convert your BTC to US Dollars 1st and then it acts like a debit card. Hopefully soon it will start to become more popular. There are not too many Bitcoin ATM's yet either. This is why I feel now is a good time to invest in BTC. It's still early and has not gone mainstream. Once it does, the price should really shoot up in value.

Also a little tip, when you post you should use all 5 Tags. In this post you only used "life." Try to use all 5 like introduceyourself, life, blog, steem, story, etc

Aha, it is already pretty popular in The USA as i see it.
See my last Post which is a news and you will find some clue that the digital currency will be more popular soon.
The good thing is that your gov will not ban it as a currency. unfortunately Chinese gov will ban it if you use it as a currency.
Thanks for your tip .
