So, having 24+ tools and a donation page with a Silient payment section.
Of 1 year of having this address online (avb@....) it has receiver 4 donations.
Two of which was myself testing the system. And two people that sat across a table from me and wanted to see how it worked (after I donated to them).
There is close to zero real life organic adoption so far for silent payments. And that's just a damn shame.
what's the main reason for this I ask myself.
Too little use cases? (I don't believe that).
Too small number of implementations in wallets? (sure)
Too complex?
In any case, I was wondering if other bitcoiners saw the same lack of action on the Silent Payments channel?
