We are a software development team that enables businesses to integrate Bitcoin and Lightning payments and features into websites, mobile applications, enterprise systems, point of sale systems and more.
Ran another test of our Build with Bitcoin Claude skill.
Prompt: "I want to add Bitcoin payments to my website."
Walked through self-custody, landed on @BTCPay Server and made a briefing.

We’re less interested in #AI as a novelty
and more interested in it as infrastructure.
If it helps businesses sell, support, automate, and get paid more efficiently, that’s worth paying attention to.
Especially when paired with open payment rails like #Bitcoin and #Lightning.
What do you think?

AI-referred shoppers convert 54% better and spend 53% more per visit.
Ask an AI where to buy flights with Bitcoin — you get a ranked list of merchants.
That list is the new page one for #BitcoinCommerce
AI-referred shoppers spend more, stay longer, and convert better than traditional web traffic.
Are we watching the birth of the next major discovery engine?

It's kinda cool!
We got debanked by Chase after 13 years. No warning, no reasons, no email.
Just a letter in the mail and poof: accounts gone.
Bitcoin businesses beware: the "Bitcoin-friendly USA" hype hasn't reached every bank yet.
#BitcoinCommerce #Debanking
Wrong answers only -
#Bitcoin just dipped.
What caused it?
I'll start:
Someone accidentally unplugged the #blockchain 😄
#FinTech
40 million Kenyans just got a Lightning Address.
Tando just added Lightning to M-Pesa. That means anyone on Kenya's most popular payments network can instantly receive Bitcoin.
The building blocks of #BitcoinCommerce are being laid in Africa.

We can help.
