Once enough users are doing this, we'll see Venmo join in on the Bitcoin fun too.

Technically speaking, people wouldn't even have to be Bitcoiners to take advantage of paying zero fees or extremely low fees. They just need to be aware that a round about way exists at checkout to save 3%.

All backed by Plaid KYC. Real win there.

if you don't want KYC then don't use CashApp or Venmo or Strike. simple.

Yep - because even if the normie uses cash app or strike they can pay your lightning invoice (using a non custodial) with fiat and you stay anonymous

OK, I know that, but you stated that even non-Bitcoin people could use the apps to avoid fees… but then they are the KYC people who then allow for massive tracking of funds flows on both fiat and Bitcoin networks, including helping fingerprint who the few no-KYC users they interact with are. I just am skeptical that this is fully a great thing; maybe an unavoidable growth of Bitcoin as reserve currency instead of the dollar, but hmmmm…

I'll be making my clients aware that if they use cash app they can now be eligible for my BTC discount (the largest discount I provide) as a way to make Bitcoin "real" in their life. Paying their invoices so easily in BTC while being made aware that they're saving money for doing so has to pique some curiosity prompting at least a few to do more research.
