“Living on Bitcoin” question:
Most businesses near me, including some I frequent, don’t accept Bitcoin (although not for lack of trying).
Is there a non-custodial/KYC-free app where you can load a fiat payment method by paying a Lightning invoice?
It looks like BitRefill sells digital visa debit cards, but those can’t be used in-person or added to Apple Pay.
Does anywhere sell physical gift cards for sats? The more I learn about financial surveillance, the more I realize that every purchase, every coffee you buy, is tracked to fine-tune your advertising profile (and that’s the best-case scenario).
I guess using cash or buying a prepaid card with any method would achieve the desired privacy here...
But is there a way to do this on Bitcoin?
