No.  There may be a few stores who accept it if you search all over the place, but in practice you just can’t.  This is a three-day experiment – what if she had to pay for fuel in her car, or public transport, or even just use pretty much any service, most of which don’t accept bitcoin.

The Japan bitcoin laws need time to mature and settle with merchants.  The “thousands merchants” that you mentioned don’t even accept it yet as far as I’m aware, and even then it won’t actually be a lot in the overall scheme of things.

Experiments like this have been done before, with people doing experiments of living on bitcoin for a week, but that’s very hard and if you live outside of a major city you’re not even going to be able to eat, let alone live your everyday lives.

Just now,the bill has been passed.It will take some time to come into effect all over japan.For that,we have to wait.But this step taken by the japan government is an eye opener to all other nations.Since Japan,a technologically advanced world economic power has started accepting bitcoins,it has attracted world wide attention towards bitcoin.

Just like I said before, Japanese people loves technology and look how they embrace bitcoin and considered it legal in their. However, with that said, it will take a while for the Japanese population to use only bitcoin in their country.

We have to remember that Japan has an aging population, meaning there are more elderly folks living as compare to the younger generation. So I think this will also contribute that its not possible to use only bitcoin because the elderly would still prefer to transact with fiat only.

Due to the official adoption of bitcoin in Japan as a means of payment, the thousands merchants will accept the virtual currency this year. But what the actual facts are?  Whether you can easily pay for goods and services in Japan using bitcoin?  This helped us to understand BitKan officials. BitKan marketing director Ruby Chen conducted a three-day experiment, which showed how in reality it was possible to use bitcoin

I definitely think it is. There are an insane amount of places that accept bitcoin in Japan.

Yes i think japan adop bitcoin and some of my friends there they said that some merchant are accepting bitcoin. If government of japan support bitcoin in there country maybe they use bitcoin to all merchant and store.
