My story with Bitcoins - accepting crypto in small business
My Story
In 2014 together with my girlfriend we decided to open street food business in London. Soon after we realised that we gonna have a new member of family. My gf was pregnant !
Happy happy
We decided to do burgers - bourbon steamed burgers. Propably few of you have heard of us.
We were accepting dogecoins alongside with bitcoins.
Our first days of business were so exciting.
I have pushed the story on reddit

and to media

.
I have realised that acceptimg crypto wasnt only as a payment method but great way to promote business.
We expanded and open more locations including 2 on Camden Market.
As soonest i got there i started coinvincing other food vendors to accept btc/doge.
Most of them just laughed over it (their problem - now as im still friends with many - regret not listening to me) but i maanaged to get on board 2 businesses. My good friend listened to my advice and started accepting btc/doge/ltc and other one btc/doge.

And our monkey was definitly enjoying being in middle of that business

Lol. I used to work before as a tattoo artist and more i was missing that. I decided to stop making burgers and go back to my old trade.
new start
Im doing now what i love and that most important in life. I still accept crypto and still pushing story to media for promotion - had an interview with news site that i cannot mention yet as the articule is not out. On sunday i am gonna be giving interview for one of biggest Brazilian Tv - for documentary about bitcoins.
As soon it will be aired i will post a link to it.

new baby - another wave of motivation
Recently our family got bigger - its a motivation boost for me now to promote myself as an Tattoo Artist and Promote Bitcoin acceptance for small businesses. I tell my friends constantly to rethink accepting btc & other crypto as a form of payment. I want my kids to live in Btc friendly world. Can You help me to do it?
