No the cashier just said it wasn't working because of "technical issues"🙄🙄. I suspect it was bad education on the part of the shop owner. Always easier for a cashier to just say no if they don...

Makes sense. Another reason for square to offer the Bitcoin option to the payer on the screen at checkout. After all it’s up to the payer to decide what currency they want to use. When you travel abroad, it’s not uncommon for payment terminals to ask if you’d like to pay in USD or EUR for example. With the exchange rate displayed right there.

Good point. That could work if there's a touchscreen or if they have good middleware to route the user -> fiat or bitcoin without making too much friction

Klaus Schwab's minions will love this "elegant solution" to further enslave us to the fiat system.

Ultimately, I don’t want to tell merchants that I want to pay in bitcoin.

I want to tap my phone/scan the QR, grab my things and be on my way.

That should be the goal.

But those merchants must exist first.

Don’t say that too loud. Visa and Mastercard might come up with their own bridge and charge all of us fat fees. 😬

square is basically there

Sure, plain and simple.

Agreed. I think Square got us closer than anyone. It would be cool if their square QRs were fiat or bitcoin optional but maybe they cant fit all the data without breaking it

I think everyone’s on the same page here. Every time I see a square terminal, I feel like I have to *ask permission* to pay in bitcoin…. This is exactly the opposite of how I should feel.

Yes! It would be nice to mention something like "thanks for accepting Bitcoin" to the cashier who otherwise has no idea that's what you are using to pay them.

Will visa, and Mastercard bring troubles? Because if they don't adapt fast enough or can't, they are going to lose money (long-term)
