Been working on something for Bitcoiners who want to get their local merchants accept Bitcoin.
I modeled a brewery, a liquor store, and a coffee shop to see if their bottom line’s are improved by accepting bitcoin. Turns out they can get more cash and have a nice stack in 5 years if they just turn on this option in their Square terminal.
Turns out the brewery wins big - up to $50K in extra business value over 5 years just by doing 50/50 on Bitcoin payments - 50% held in cash, 50% keep on the balance sheet in Bitcoin - through Square. I had done this initially with coffee shop but the brewery gets more out of accepting payments.
I think these are realistic numbers: Just 1% of customers in 2026 growing to 4% by 2030 would pay in bitcoin.
I put everything on GitHub - the full analyses, printable two-pagers you can leave with owners, conversation scripts, etc.
But read the article first to and then check out the links to everything at the end of the article.
Obviously it’d be great if you shared this with others. Thanks! 😀
