So, Lugano is nowhere close to El Salvador.
Can we stackers not do something about it? Can we not target smaller cities or countries to make it happen for Bitcoin?
I suppose a Bitccoin (SN) meetup for a week in a small city with a real objective of making bitcoin popular in the area Can work wonders. We eed to form a plan for it.
It's also something I am thinking about a lot.
I think especially in countries where the currency hasn't yet collapsed, merchants are mostly motivated by boosting their sales, so the first obvious step would be asking to pay with lightning as much as possible.
Another area I noticed where lightning can shine is for small payments. For example I noticed many food trucks currently accept cash only payments, because credit card companies charge something like 1.50 CHF base fee plus 3% commision. With lightning the fees would be negligible and the payments tend to be pretty fast and with no issues for small amounts.
