>a random mom'n'pop store in the third world now accepts payment in Bitcoin

>99.99999% of customers don't bother because it's slow and clunky and exchange rates are highly volatile

>BITCOIN IS UNSTOPPABLE. WE'RE BANKING THE UNBANKED. FIAT MONEY IS DEAD.

>Chainlink is a shitcoin

I'm gonna make it really simple for you retards:

small payments -> lightning network = the Visa of bitcoin
large payments -> bitcoin network = FED wire.

Wait, people are actually trying to use crypto as a currency? What a bunch of idiots. That's not what it's for lmao!

>>55302258
There is a difference between penetrating your butthole and doing it. Just because I can use Bitcoin doesn't mean I am gonna.

>customer picks up a $3 gallon of milk
>It's $3.23 by the time they get to the register
>fee to use the service
>proprietary wallet they likely need an app for
>controlled by shady private actors
The future of money.

LN is decentralized and can’t scale. DYOR on Zenon or prepare to look stupid.

>>55302315
More likely:
>customer picks up a 3000sat milk gallon
>it's 3000sat by the time they get to the register
>fee to use the service (lower than Visa? how is that a problem)
>open source wallet connected to a trusted neutrino node (or their own, but for small payments it doesn't really matter)
The future of money.

dont try to help them. they dream their $500 will turn into 500k and that RandomUselessTokenNotNeeded will somehow be what everyone accepts to buy milk apparently

>>55302291
You're not thinking in terms of necessity. You will use it if it's necessary. And it will -unfortunately- become necessary, because fiat gets drained of purchasing power on the daily.

>>55302392
nobody speculates on these casino cheese tokens (btc is just the biggest) and really believes in any real usecase, that's for brainlets

>>55302258
>>55302392
I'm going to make it even more simple for you cum guzzling zoomers

Satoshi is Japanese for "intelligence"
Nakamoto is Japanese for "central"

Your imaginary internet money was invented by the government and you fell for it hook, line and sinker. Dumbasses.

>>55302359
Most likely:

>customer picks up a 3000sat milk gallon
>it's 3000sat by the time they get to the register
>store goes bankrupt in under a month because BTC dropped by $500 and employees, suppliers, landlord, etc won't take your super cool internet money as payment

btc going down. tht mean bit coin is bad hurrr

>>55302270
Or I can reach into my pocket and pay cash

>>55303703
Sorry. Jamal and Tyrone took your cash at gunpoint.
The new reparations law allows this.

>he thinks the world will price things in a volatile fecal token
>he thinks the customers will wait 5 hours to transact $12 milk post inflation in 2035
>he thinks everyone will learn how to use LN, the hypercentralized IOU cuckchain created in a desperate attempt to hide bitfucks incompetence from the normalfags

>>55302258
>large payments -> bitcoin network = FED wire.
HAHAAH
>fed wire takes forever due to anti-money laundering
>btc takes forever... because it's trying to be like fed wire, OK? fuck off!

>>55302258
I'm gonna make it really complex for (You) retard:

you didn't buy before 2017 -> you're priced out = COPE

Every coin except Monero is a surveillance nightmare worse than digital fiat.
