Anything with a screen can in theory accept BCH with software updates. Will it happen? Maybe for some. Maybe we should focus on the big providers so thousands of machines updates atst.
The thing about Japan is - 75% of restaurants use these cash machines. I don't blame them, it means the employees never have to handle money. Easy raspi mod could make them take BCH.
There are already similar machines made in Korea that do exactly this with BCH. I hope to see them start getting deployed!

The problem is that BTC is only the gold standard for the same reason that GOLD is the gold standard. It's just because people agree that it is.
Someone said it, and everybody followed. The original intent was cash. Then it didn't work and the BTC core people yelled "Store of Value" and the followers yelled. OK. .
I do prefer BCH but if BTC keeps being the gold standard of crypto I dont mind it. It'd be better BCH and BTC has a peaceful relation and one is gold and the other is cash. like BTC pushes for LTC. Is it feasible?
So if BCH becomes a better store of value because of it's usage as cash(it'll be more scarce on exchanges so price goes up) then there will be no reason for BTC to exist.
Ryan Charles is either stupid or an infiltrator. Why would you call it Money Button instead of Bitcoin Button to promote the brand Bitcoin? Same accounts for Handcash wallet by NChain.
I think it's a great name. People associating Bitcoin to money - I don't see that as a bad thing
The stress testing of Bitcoin Cash has given some interesting attention, now with an individual company/group testing on their own. What if we see bigger companies start testing out ideas & doing business on-chain!
Agree! In the beginning I was skeptic of a stress test. It turned out to be a very good choice to do it.

Life goal: I email 3-5 of my favorite online businesses per day, and ask them politely to accept cryptocurrency as a payment method. Send them here: https://bitpay.com/tour There is nothing to lose, only gain.
On the NovFork debate, I will use the stress test day results to make up my own mind. Can 32mb blocks be successfully mined? Will orphan rates stay constant? Etc.
