Isn’t KYC a current requirement of running his business in the USA? It’s going to be pretty tough getting a ton of adoption if it’s not through KYC channels (Coinbase, et al). Very few new adopters have the insight, knowledge, or even desire to acquire btc outside of “the system”.

yes, yes it is.

bad business model.

There are many bitcoin businesses world wide including the USA that don't depend on KYC.

He is not one of us.

You can "buy" bitcoin with Strike without kyc though, by sending dollars to your own lightning invoices. It's the only kyc app that can do this afaik.

ok and how do you get those dollars sent into your own lightning invoices?

Fill Strike app with dollars from your bank account and leave it as dollars, do NOT buy bitcoin.

Generate invoices from Zeus or whatever lightning node you have, and pay the invoices with Strike.
