Hmmm, I wish there was an open source, self custodial provider that can not only accept Bitcoin, lightning and even Monero, but also do magic with it on the backend...

Oh, here it is! nostr:npub155m2k8ml8sqn8w4dhh689vdv0t2twa8dgvkpnzfggxf4wfughjsq2cdcvg

Wow Clownbase. What a shitshow.

looool, CONbase at it again

What's this mean? The only way for a merchant to accept payment is if customer also has coinbase account?!

Yes

Lol, so like having to open a bank account with the same bank as each shop you ever want to use! Such vision.

Fuck these clowns 🖕

Horseshit

I wish people would pay me for coffee in #Bitcoin via Lightning. I even offer a -10% discount for Bitcoin payments.

#Strike & #CashApp make it so easy for consumer use… very few have yet awakened to our revolution!

viva la #Bitcoin

Hi, I am among the unfortunate victims of the FTX scam, a situation that has resulted in the loss of my entire savings, totaling around $20,000.

The distressing aspect of this ordeal is not just the financial loss but the subsequent actions taken by SBF and Sullivan & Cromwell, the involved debtors. Following the success of their global heist, it appears that, rather than working towards justice for the affected customers, they are prioritizing their own interests, demonstrating a complete disregard for the well-being of those who have suffered.

To witness such blatant exploitation of innocent people for personal gain is not only disheartening but also raises concerns about the moral and ethical compass of those involved. Their actions can only be described as mentally and spiritually sick, going beyond mere financial misconduct.

The significance of this situation cannot be overstated for me, as the funds lost were an integral part of my financial stability. I am reaching out to you with the hope that you might consider extending a helping hand during this challenging time. Any assistance however small that you could provide to navigate through the complexities of this situation would be immensely appreciated.

I believe in the power of collective compassion and the willingness of individuals to make a difference in the lives of those facing adversity. I understand that you may have your own commitments and limitations, but even the smallest gesture can have a meaningful impact.

Thank you for taking the time to read my plea, and I sincerely hope that you may find it in your heart to offer assistance during this trying period. Your kindness will not be forgotten, and I am immensely grateful for any support you can provide.

Please save me.

Where's your store?

Do you organize Bitcoin meetups there? What do you do to pump it up? After some marketing, it should work...

Matt, I'd be interested in hearing more about what you have.

We buy roasted coffee beans 5-10 lbs at a time and pay $9/lb, BUT we have a very specific bean and roast that we like AND we get it from the EqualExchange coop, which means the money goes to the farmers and roasters, not middlemen.

If you can compete with that, we'd consider switching to you and paying via lightning.

What concerns me is that I don't think this is motivated by "it'd be a good idea if we only allowed coinbase customers to pay in crypto". This smells of "we'll save more money by not taking the heat over KYC regulations than we will lose in customers".

If that's true, expect this to start happening in all US based payment processors, and then it'll spread across the globe.

I'm going to wait until I have personally set up a BTCPay server before I personally recommend that solution. Hopefully that will be something that rises to the top of my pirority list soon. 🤓
