I just made my first real life sale in Crypto Currency
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>My mother and I own a small clothing store in a touristic part of Mexico. </p> <p>I opened the store this morning at around 10:30AM (UTC-6) and right away a young couple walked into the store and started trying on a few jackets, after a while he selected three of them (about 60USD each) and approached me at the counter... </p> <p>-Hey, so- I want to buy these jackets but I don't have cash on me or a card from any bank. Do you accept any other form of payment?</p> <p>-Sorry, what do you mean? (At the moment I was imagining some pretty weird things tbh)</p> <p>-Like Pay Pal, or Venmo? </p> <p>-Oh! right. Sorry, I don't have an account in either. </p> <p><em>Pause...</em></p> <p>​</p> <p>-I could probably take Crypto...</p> <p>-Yeah that be cool, would XRP be fine? (Fastest transaction speed of the currencies available in the most popular crypto exchanges in Mexico)</p> <p>​</p> <p>I felt so exited! A real life transaction of physical goods for crypto currency! Just like the pizza guy! The transaction went fine and didn't take too long. Afterward I put that shit into BTC and ETH and due to the recent spike I'm already up like 6%!!! My mom said we should put a sign that says "We accept Bitcoin" lol. </p> <p>Do any of you have personal stories of transactions of the kind? I'd love to hear them! </p> <p>​</p> <p>(I hope this isn't a breach of Rule 5.2. If it is, I Apologize and feel free to delete)</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/yesboizindeed"> /u/yesboizindeed </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/r4kr6t/i_just_made_my_first_real_life_sale_in_crypto/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/r4kr6t/i_just_made_my_first_real_life_sale_in_crypto/">[comments]</a></span>Kind Regards R
