I agree it's better to use the BTC network as a fast payment system, and it's good to see the use case in action. The merchant needs to hold BTC; otherwise, he would use a permissioned settlement, which is as bad as Visa and Mastercard. There are also other solutions to the Visa and Mastercard problem. PIX performs well against Visa, but is very bad for Brazilians.

visa isn't even a settlement layer 🤣 they just clear (provide a reliable accounting) payments between banks image

Read it again, lol. Don't put words in my mouth. I said 'BTC as a permissioned layer', which is bad as Visa or Mastercard.

Frankly, check the standard definition of money — very few Bitcoin developers understand monetary dynamics.
