What if you could pay with Bitcoin β€” but anywhere? PlebQR is the killer Bitcoin app in Thailand.

An incredible alignment of different interests: one pleb wants to buy something in a store with Bitcoin, another pleb wants to stack sats. PlebQR is a pleb-to-pleb Bitcoin exchange that's basically unstoppable. The platform connects product buyers with Bitcoin stackers.

Here's how it works: you (the Bitcoiner buying a product) scan the ubiquitous Thai fiat QR payment code and upload it to the PlebQR platform. You then pay a Lightning invoice, wait 1-2 minutes for a match, and some pleb out there looking to buy BTC pays your fiat QR and receives your Bitcoin. Everybody happy.

I just bought a pair of sandals and a shirt and some guy got to stack my non-KYC sats at a pretty good rate.

I love Bitcoin when it shines like this. Bitcoin is the money of the future and we don't need the old world's permission to make it work. Big respect to the Thai Bitcoiner community.

Is the delay a problem?

This is amazing to read about. Hopefully one day it will be like this worldwide

We have something similar in Poland - nostr:nprofile1qqstg58j4pl3xflf543ge9ujsmrdg3ql86fmlr3ateqed62yey0p4vq4tc3df It works more or less the same, but is built on the Blik system that's very popular here in Poland. The only difference is that it uses 6-digit codes instead of QRs.

First world problems... We need e-pay solutions like this so we can do this in western countries too. QR Pay = anonymously delegated pay.

Pretty amazing. Wouldn’t it be better though (for opsec and tax reduction) that the fiat pleb pays the fiat bill, and the bitcoin pleb sends the bitcoin to the fiat pleb?

It's early days but amazing! +1min is too slow at POS but get that down to 30s ... on self checkout counters ... with higher success rate, that's viable! https://npub1gm7tuvr9atc6u7q3gevjfeyfyvmrlul4y67k7u7hcxztz67ceexs078rf6.blossom.band/4e2e1da9027ab1b299a27671f0868a98db3f3b8ef6e23329f2a124bdf115...

There was a platform called purse.io that did a similar thing. It was over Amazon though. I liked it a lot and it worked pretty well. It's no longer around, for whatever reason...

Let’s do this. Love to hear of bitcoin adoption. Especially in Thailand.

This is an amazing idea! I always knew that this FIAT QR-Code payments are good for something. :-)

What’s the volume? Must have to be high in order to reduce wait times, especially if you’re at a shop counter?

Is it possible to integrate that to NOSTR? - i publish my fiat qr code - someone random pays for it - gets my btc - we rate each other Integrated in a zap wallet inside a nostr client: - i want to buy some sats for my wallet - my wallet shows me: β€ž3 seconds ago someone offered 5.600 Sats becaus...
