Just made a local shop near me start accepting #btc.
So my experience was like this:
1. Told him difference about Bitcoin and Lightning with the help of mempool and an example of shopkeeper and customer.
2. After that showed him the website coinos.io to start accepting btc on lightning.
3. Made him download Bluewallet to transfer the btc from coinos.io to take the custody of it on-chain ( told him about the seriousness of those 12 words and how to store them)
4. Bought something from the shop and paid with BTC on coinos.io (he was so surprised with the speed of the transaction).
5. Then showed him how to take out that btc to his Bluewallet.
6. Showed him how to register his shop on BTC map.
7. Tomorrow will go and give him some BTC stickers to put around in the shop.
Now we have a shop accepting #btc.
Feels good to contribute to this silent revolution 😎
PS: Due to my privacy reasons I won't be able to name the shop here. But all in all there is an addition to BTCmap website now 😊
