Crypto-Themed KFC - Is It Really Worth It?
Fast food moguls weren’t too eager to jump on the cryptocurrency wagon back in the day, but times change and KFC had a change of heart as well. In 2018, KFC Canada released a limited edition KFC bucket for $20. Customers could actually pay for it with Bitcoin!
The crypto-themed fried chicken came in a special bucket and the price that was to be paid in cryptocurrency was printed right on the bucket at the moment of purchase.
While KFC Canada’s Bitcoin campaign didn’t last for long, cryptocurrency users did appreciate the gesture and the whole thing got viral on Twitter and Facebook. That was surely a great way to get some instant publicity free of charge, but the fast food industry is far from adopting cryptocurrency any time soon.
