Finally had the chance of opening my @Sat’s Oil this week and without giving away too much, it was truly one of the best most and thoughtful experience I’ve had interacting with a nostr/Bitcoin product. The packaging is full of Easter eggs that will keep you collecting more and more. The Olive oil itself is simply outstanding and shipped straight from Sicily. Highly recommend.

It’s an always fun when you orange pill someone, pay them in bitcoin and the price proceeds to immediately tank 30% 🥲

My first Bitcoin transaction to a Square merchant for this beautiful Henri Matisse Lithograph of the 1000 Arabian nights. I found it at a tiny vintage store owned by a Gen-Z named Lilly in Greenwich, CT. I noticed she had Square running on an iPad and when I inquired about the print she said I’ll give you 10% off if you pay cash. I replied how about 20% and I’ll pay you in Bitcoin. She looked at me incredulous and asked how? I pointed at her Square iPad. She said really?!! That’s so sick! I showed her how to turn on Bitcoin payments on the spot. 30 seconds later she had her Bitcoin wallet setup. I paid with Zeus connected to my Node at home. The transaction was more than $600 so we split it in 2. Worked flawlessly, routed through @Nodestrich ♾️ node ⚡️ She had no idea about the price of a coin but was just so happy to receive her first sats. She told me she was going to hold onto them forever. Now, for the pain points. She had her Square POS app running in retail mode and Bitcoin didn’t show up on her checkout screen as an option even after she had turned it on. We had to switch her app to standard POS, which she was more happy to do but that was far from ideal since it required so much handholding on my part. I definitely wouldn’t have been able to do that at a busy coffee shop for example. Is there any reason why Bitcoin is only available in standard POS mode? @npub1ds3h...hzcn you guys should definitely look into a fix. Other than that 10/10 experience 🤝 Bitcoin for art. Bullish. image

Trying a test run of the Square interface as a merchant so I can better educate shops at my local town — Am I missing something to accept Bitcoin as payment? I can only seem to do the conversion part 🤨 Cc @npub1ds3h...hzcn Anyone tried this? #asknostr

I just ordered 200K sats worth of sushi and it got delivered without any chopsticks. Apparently I needed to request them upon ordering. Clown world.

How do you get on zero fiat if you have to service the interest of your bitcoin loans with fiat every month? Am I missing something?

Normalize saying my two sats instead of my two cents. People will ask you questions.
