“While Bitcoin’s traction has primarily occurred online through exchanges and with merchants who sell online, its use as a payment method for purchases at bricks-and-mortar retailers and for in-person trade is not found that widely just yet. There is progress though and it is occurring in geographic areas where clusters of Bitcoin enthusiasts exist. In these areas are the first real-world merchants that are finding commercial success from accepting the cryptocurrency. A growing cluster growing in Berlin is the latest (and potentially the largest) to form.”
