I was speaking to a friend last night: if you are running a small business, usually people will pay via their bank. There are several issues with this, which many people do not see or understand. Firstly, the payment processor takes around 3%. Then, if you transfer the money to your local bank, another fee applies. Then, if you want to exchange the fiat currency into something else, another fee is incurred. Basically endless fee.

This is also before talking about inflation.

Now, if people pay in BTC, the fees are so low, and it's instant with Lightning. Waking up today, someone paid me in Lightning. Such a nice way to start the day!

One last thing: it is a JOY to create products and then sell them for sats. You control everything, I mean EVERYTHING. Your labor, your rules.
