Paying for brunch with Bitcoin at the first @Women in Bitcoin Montreal meetup. @Blockstream Jade hardware wallet on the payer side. @EclairBTC as the Point of Sale. @BULL BITCOIN wallet on the merchant side. Meetup announced on @Club Orange. Fast, easy, self-sovereign. This is what local Bitcoin adoption looks like. @Bitcoin Montreal nostr:nprofile1qqsfjzteswm5cuyqpvvz40r0vszx4dcyql5u40xkeats5w9d48hht4guz0cndnostr:nprofile1qqs22d4tralncqfnh2kmmarjkxk8449hwnk5xtqe3y5yry6hy7ytegqpp4mhxue69uhkyunz9e5k7tcpzemhxue69uhk2er9dchxummnw3ezumrpdejz7wt5kvh @Boltz - Non-Custodial Bitcoin Exchange

What a night. 🍕⚡ Huge thanks to everyone who came out to the Bitcoin Pizza Day celebration at Osteria Schiavio hosted by @Bitcoin Montreal and @EclairBTC. Over 40 people packed the venue for an evening of great conversations, new connections, pizza, wine, and Bitcoin. Even better: roughly half the attendees paid for food and drinks in Bitcoin using the EclairBTC Point of Sale — with every payment settling directly into the restaurant owner’s self-custodial @npub1ajlr...zx3q.

CAN'T STOP THIS TRAIN @Club Orange

Two new merchants in Montreal now accept Bitcoin using Lightning and @EclairBTC ⚡ We also set them up with @npub1ajlr...zx3q for simple self-custody and direct-to-wallet payments using @Liquid Network 🍷 Double Menton et Saucisson — a popular French-style bar/resto 🎨 Chez Ernest — an eclectic café/bar/resto filled with art, antiques, and oddities Spend Bitcoin. Own Bitcoin. 🧡

The article misses the bigger point. Montreal rent isn’t just “going up.” Your money is buying less. Average rent: 2016: CAD$761 2025: CAD$1,291 If rent simply tracked inflation, CAD$761 in 2016 would be about CAD$1,022 today. That extra gap is monetary debasement. The dollar lost purchasing power. This is why we Bitcoin. 🧡

Montreal Gazette

Montreal rent prices have jumped 70% in the last decade

Population growth, gentrification and a game of catch-up with other markets have sent rents skyrocketing across the city.

GM and Happy Freedom Friday

I gave the owner of Le Bon Vieux Temps this 2015 Venezuelan 100 bolívar note as a reminder of why Bitcoin matters. Today, the 100 bolívar note is worth about: $0.000002 USD Meanwhile, 100 sats are worth: $0.081 USD ⚡ 100 sats are now over 40,000× more valuable than the entire banknote. Hyperinflation vs scarcity. Fiat vs hard money.

Bitcoin circular economies in action. 🧡 Great @Bitcoin Montreal meetup last night at Le Bon Vieux Temps 🍸 Guest speaker @npub1y797...esu6 showed how Bitcoin can heat your home while stacking sats. Cocktails and food were paid in Bitcoin all night. ⚡ Vid shows @Pathfinder paying with @Club Orange through the @EclairBTC POS, settling directly into the venue owner’s @BULL BITCOIN wallet. No middlemen. Just Bitcoin.

MONTREAL MEETUP TOMORROW ⚡ Join us at the @Bitcoin Montreal meetup for a presentation by @npub1y797...esu6 on how #Bitcoin mining can heat your home or business while stacking KYC-free sats. Turn heat into sovereignty. ♨️➡️🟠 Hosted at Le Bon Vieux Temps in Montreal’s Latin Quarter — and yes, they accept Bitcoin. We'll also be zapping sats to attendees via @Club Orange ⚡️

EclairBTC's unofficial mascot is the baby groundhog who has started living in @Pathfinder 's yard. She gratefully accepts kale donations from the neighbors. What should we name her?

It’s not just about stacking Bitcoin. It’s about spending it safely and strengthening the network with every transaction. Your @Blockstream Jade hardware wallet is great for both cold storage AND secure payments! Tap an EclairBTC POS and spend L-BTC → auto-swapped to Lightning in seconds.⚡

For merchants ready to level up their Bitcoin security, we set them up with a @Blockstream Jade hardware wallet. Accept Lightning ⚡ Settle instantly into @Liquid Network Secure it all on your Jade Fast. Private. Self-sovereign.

We help merchants accept Bitcoin at their POS with EclairBTC. And when they want to dive deeper, we help them run their own Bitcoin node on @Umbrel ☂️ From sovereign payments → to deepening decentralization. This is the way.

"Strategic Bitcoin Reserves" aren’t built by governments. They’re built every day by small businesses choosing to accept Bitcoin. Our goal should be to help *them* move from survival to sovereignty.

Boltz makes the magic happen ⚡ Lightning → @Liquid Network swaps, seamless and instant. Powering our EclairBTC backend the right way. Huge shoutout to @Boltz - Non-Custodial Bitcoin Exchange 🙌

Le Bon Vieux Temps 🍸 in Montreal’s Latin Quarter is now accepting Bitcoin ⚡ Powered by EclairBTC: • No KYC • No custodians • Direct-to-wallet payments Leveraging @BULL BITCOIN wallet and @npub155m2...dcvg + @Liquid Network + @Boltz - Non-Custodial Bitcoin Exchange under the hood.
