0 sats \ 4 replies \ @DarthCoin 14h \ on: Square brings Bitcoin to Main Street with POS & Wallets for Local Businesses AGORA
this is good, only that is not incentive for nocoiners to start using BTC. Clueless VISA card users will continue using fiat without knowing that their crap fake fiat is converted into sats.
WE NEED TO PUSH NOCOINERS INTO LITERALLY USING BTC.
To achieve this Block or Sqaure need to get an exchange license and deal with it in the background. Basically selling fiat to bitcoin for merchants that want to receive sats.
I agree, it still a big step forward in terms of service availability and propagation. Not sure how many sellers currently use Square, there are many alternatives and POS market is really competitive, especially in the fiat world. Maybe @OPAGO_PAY and @bitcoinize can tell us more about their journey creating the bitcoin POS market, together with the LNbits opensource version and others that ca't remember now.
