While we are glued to our FUD spreading devices, smarter people are moving forward and do what must to be done: accept payments in Bitcoin. This time it's about a Japanese retailer, Yamada Denki, which announced in a press release a couple of days ago, that it will start a Bitcoin payment trial, in partnership with the exchange bitFlyer.

There are two physical stores involved in this trial, one of them being located in Shinjuku, a popular touristic area. The maximum settlement will be 300,000 YEN, or about $2,760 (meaning the total amount worth of Bitcoin you can use for one purchase per day). The trial already started this weekend so if you are in Tokyo these days and happen to pass by Shinjuku, you can give it a try.

This news comes after another major online e-commerce platform from South Korea, WeMakePrice, announced a similar test a couple of days ago.

It's also interesting to note the involvement of bitFlyer, which recently opened a presence in Europe, by opening a branch in Luxembourg.

Once again, mainstream adoption for crypto comes from Asia.
