The menu features a variety of burgers, hotdogs and fries, and this week something new. Customers are now able to pay for their meals using Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

\u201cWith the Bitcoin it was just to have another option available for customers to utilize. It\u2019s something that\u2019s been talked about nationwide,\u201d Curell said.<\/p>\n

With the value of Bitcoin constantly changing, depending on the moment, a Bitcoin payment may actually be cheaper than traditional payment options.<\/p>\n

\u201cLet\u2019s say you come to Hot Diggity Dogs and you order a meal for $10\u2026whatever the price is at that moment is what that\u2019s going to translate and calculate for,\u201d Curell said.<\/p>\n

Making this move with such a brand-new business is a bit of a risky move, but it\u2019s a risk he said they are willing to make.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf everybody was paying with the Bitcoin then maybe it would be a big risk\u2026just opening this up for the few utilizing it\u2026it\u2019s a risk that we\u2019re willing to take on,\u201d Curell said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"LUBBOCK, Texas \u2014 Hot Diggity Dogs and Burgers is a newer restaurant in Lubbock that is now offering…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":54418,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[168,170,169],"class_list":{"0":"post-54417","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-lubbock","8":"tag-lubbock","9":"tag-lubbock-headlines","10":"tag-lubbock-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54417","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54417"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54417\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54418"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54417"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54417"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54417"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
