Can I post failures? I tried to pay for two beers at a local micro brewery with bitcoin, and was rebuffed. My plan is to try to pay bitcoin when patronizing my local merchants. At least it gets easier to ask. It becomes second nature.
That look used to get to me. I have stopped caring. It's sad to see, but local merchants where I live are suffering more and more from this dying fiat economy. I figure soon they will be more receptive to an alternative.
Yea, it didn't really bother me, but it was an interesting exchange between the merchant and myself. She actually did like a verbal double take... "bitcoin?", followed by "no, cash or card".
Not a purchase, but just zapped some new entrants to the unstoppable Bitcoin community. Like a welcome bonus for him to test Lightning/Onchain transaction via USSD technology.
