Chai Ada, a newly opened coffee shop in West London, is on track to accept seven cryptocurrencies, The Sun reports.
The list of accepted coins will include Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, Litecoin Horizen and other options.
Tayyab Shafiq, the owner of the cafe, said that he wants to offer more cryptocurrencies due to the scale issued by the two biggest players:
Both Bitcoin and Ethereum have the highest market capitalization but they also have high gas fees, so we want to make sure our customers get the best for their money.
He believes that cryptocurrencies and the Metaverse hold a lot of promise, predicting that they will become mainstream in the future.
Shafiq says that his business, billed as Britain’s first crypto cafe, will help drive crypto adoption in the future.
The cafe has also integrated non-fungible tokens, offering customers a lifetime discount on purchasing its NFT on the Rarible marketplace.
The foodservice industry is actively trying to capitalize on the rapid growth of cryptocurrencies. As reported by U.Today, a crypto-themed restaurant that offers customers “Dogedogs” and “blockchain” sandwiches, launched in Florida last month.
A Paris-based bistro started accepting the Shiba Inu meme cryptocurrency in late October when the meme coin craze was at its peak.
