The news was long awaited by many in the crypto community who had been speculating since March, when the chain initially asked followers whether or not it should accept Bitcoin.

自3月以來一直在猜測的加密社區中，許多人一直在等待這個消息，當時連鎖店最初詢問追隨者是否應該接受比特幣。

Dorsey Offers Public Endorsement

Dorsey提供公共認可

Former Twitter CEO and long-time Bitcoin supporter Jack Dorsey supplied a hearty “yes” when the company asked on social media several weeks ago. That one-word response fueled buzz and kept the debate alive. Since then, Steak ‘n Shake has encouraged Bitcoin-related promotion on its sites, such as Tesla giveaways and ambiguous, coded messages to generate interest.

前Twitter首席執行官兼長期比特幣支持者傑克·多爾西（Jack Dorsey）在社交媒體上幾週前在社交媒體上詢問時，提供了一個豐盛的“是”。一個單詞的回應引起了嗡嗡聲，並使辯論保持了活力。從那時起，Steak'N Shake鼓勵其網站上與比特幣相關的促銷活動，例如Tesla贈品和模棱兩可的編碼信息，以引起人們的興趣。

Steak ‘n Shake becomes one of only a handful of national restaurant chains to go from testing the waters to fully committing. This is not a beta test. Beginning May 16, every customer who wishes to purchase burgers, fries, and shakes with Bitcoin will be able to do so in-restaurant at all US locations.

牛排'N Shake成為少數幾個國家餐廳連鎖店之一，從測試水到完全投入。這不是Beta測試。從5月16日開始，每個希望使用比特幣購買漢堡，炸薯條和奶昔的客戶都可以在所有美國地區的餐廳內做到這一點。

Over 100 Million Customers Can Use Bitcoin

超過1億客戶可以使用比特幣

According to the company, more than 100 million customers nationwide will be able to use the new payment option. That’s a huge audience. Although other chains have dabbled in crypto, most have kept it to some locations or limited trials.

據該公司稱，全國有超過1億客戶將能夠使用新的付款方式。那是眾多觀眾。儘管其他連鎖店已經涉足加密貨幣，但大多數連鎖店都將其保存到某些位置或有限的試驗。

Chipotle began taking crypto payments as far back as 2022, via a service named Flexa, which accepts around 100 cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana.

Chipotle通過一項名為Flexa的服務開始就獲得加密貨幣付款，該服務接受了大約100個加密貨幣，例如比特幣，以太坊和Solana。

Subway tested crypto since 2013. McDonald’s has Bitcoin payment in Lugano, Switzerland. Pizza Hut and Burger King have tested and introduced limited promotions and trials, particularly in nations such as El Salvador, where Bitcoin is legal tender.

自2013年以來，地鐵測試了加密貨幣。麥當勞在瑞士盧加諾（Lugano）進行了比特幣付款。披薩小屋和漢堡王已經測試並引入了有限的促銷和試驗，尤其是在諸如比特幣是法定招標的埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）等國家。

The connection between Bitcoin and fastfood is nothing new. In 2010, a Florida man named Laszlo Hanyecz paid 10,000 BTC for two pizzas. Today, that would be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. The day he spent that money is now celebrated every year as Bitcoin Pizza Day.

比特幣和快餐之間的連接並不是什麼新鮮事。 2010年，一名名叫Laszlo Hanyecz的佛羅里達州男子為兩個披薩支付了10,000 BTC。今天，這將價值數億美元。他現在每年都會慶祝這筆錢的那一天是比特幣披薩日。

Now, over a decade later, Steak ‘n Shake is giving that connection a modern “flavor”, letting customers pay for meals with the same kind of digital money.

現在，十年後，Steak'N Shake為該連接提供了現代的“風味”，讓客戶用相同的數字貨幣付費。

Payments Tech Keeps Pushing Ahead

付款技術不斷前進

The Steak ‘n Shake announcement comes just as crypto payments are getting easier to use. In April, a company called Mesh launched an Apple Pay integration, which makes it possible for merchants to accept crypto through Apple Pay.

牛排'n搖聲公告都會隨著加密貨幣付款越來越容易使用。 4月，一家名為Mesh的公司推出了Apple Pay集成，這使商人可以通過Apple Pay接受加密貨幣。
