How do you convince ppl at the farmers market to accept Bitcoin?

nostr:npub1k763esjjzm2vzz7gtt38q4wf49zlua72l4rreu3myzghuwwwdqtq2mcg5x did the legwork lol. But I did snag one new vendor who downloaded a wallet and sold me some biltong for sats. I find if you go regularly and ask vendors if they accept bitcoin a couple of times and then if they do no, say “you should, it’s super easy and this wallet is awesome” and then show them your screen it inspires interest.
*say no
Yeah that makes sense. What's your go-to mobile wallet? I used to recommend Samourai but the replacement Ashigaru requires you to have a dojo, so not friendly for on-the-fly orange-pilling
The few people I’ve set up I’ve just gotten them to download Muun or Speed Wallet initially, but I tell them if they get an appreciable amount they don’t want to walk around with, or plan to start stacking or accepting Bitcoin permanently they may want to get me to help them set up Blue Wallet, and a Cold Card to sweep to.
Then I have some pre-written notes on my phone that I can text them over time to get them on their own learning path. One is a link to my educational website and a pdf copy of The Bitcoin Standard. One is about the difference between on-chain and Lightning. One is about recommendations on a good basic self custody setup including seed plates. Another is an intro to the concepts of KYC and non KYC and UTXO management.
