On Thursday (21 Dec 2017), Singapore welcomed its first cashless cafe, Ducatus Cafe with its own Cryptocurrency (Ducatus). Besides Ducatus, customers can buy the food and beverages as well as some of their own eco-friendly beauty products with Bitcoin and other cashless payment mode like credit card or net. It just don't accept cash!
Location : 138 Robinson Road #01-01 Oxley Tower, Singapore 068901 (right at the middle of Singapore's CBD area)
What do they served?
-- Local style kopi and teh
-- 'Just Java’ gourmet coffee and organic tea
-- Wraps, salads, sandwiches, yoghurt parfaits and other healthy bites.
-- Eco-friently health/beauty products like shampoo
The most interesting part about this cafe is the installation of its own Bitcoin ATM. To facilitate the use of cryptocurrency, customers can buy/top-up some cryptocurrency while waiting for the kopi (that's how we call coffee in Singapore).

I will pay it a visit soon to get an up-close and personal look of the cafe and see their "kopi siew dai" (coffee less sweet) got standard or not? lol
Personally, I am of the view the cryptocurrency (especially Bitcoin) is here to stay and hope to see more of such establishments soon.
Cheers!
