Really, I do not think adding this latest merchant (mentioned 3 posts above) is helpful to the Guldencoin cause and future.
Or maybe I am wrong and have been expecting too much of Guldencoin. Anyway, I still hope NLG will become a serious digital currency used in the Dutch economy.
Guldencoin being associated with merchants that have sh.. in their brandname, will not do any good for NLG being taken seriously.
I'd disagree. When there is full-fledged adoption of the coin, there will be far worse people using it than someone who sends a joke gift. Adoption is adoption is adoption. What's to say this store's owner doesn't take the coins they make from any sales and goes down to the pub and buys a beer with the coin.
If a closed-loop system is the end goal of NLG, as it should be for any crypto, adding another vendor, regardless of how obscure it is, just helps to make that loop that much easier to close.
Hell, I was almost tempted to buy a gift for clever when I saw this.

The real marketing world out there, and the way A-brands evaluate before jumping in, do not match your point of view.
Also it will not help convincing new users to start using crypto, this only contributes to the obscure image crypto have and should get rid off.
But hey, have fun with your shitexpress.
