I believe the more people ask if they can pay with bitcoin, the more likely an owner will become interested.

Even if they only start to find out what this bitcoin thing is, because they keep seeing social proof of others using or wanting to use it, that is a win.

To me, the first and most important step is for a non-bitcoiner to realize that bitcoin can be and is used as money in some places. Not just as collectible digital trinket.

What do you think will be the best approach to educate business owners and small local merrchants to accept bitcoin? Do you think they would be interested to learn?

Or does it work on the supermarkets and gas station too?

Most places I buy from are chains like that.

Considering your experience there, there's any chance you got merchants showing you a P2P lightning invoice directly?

Almost all of the places use third party services. They verify my transaction has gone through by checking their systems for confirmation.

Pretty sure the lightning level is abstracted away completely from their perspective.
