If anyone wants to help the owner (and @Harlem Bitcoin 🗽🧡 cofounder) Shakib and Safari Restaurant by funding an inbound channel, let me know and we can set that up.
Next time my mate is in NY, I will get him to drop off some goodies from my New Zealand shop, to share the love.🧡
Please change it to “Bitcoin preferred” sticker
Isn’t lightning outlawed in that whole state? Is this an ungovernable restaurant? 🙌

So Zeus for the point of sale and Alby for receiving capacity?
Where can we get the stickers?
How does this system work? I know people who also want to accept Bitcoin in-store and via webshop. Is this easier than other methods?
This was done using Alby Hub on a cloud hosted node (built with LDK) with a getalby.com Lightning address and Zeus wallet as a backup.
No, most custodians don’t operate here because of the restrictions, but anyone can use a self-custodial Lightning node. It’s always been legal to accept bitcoin for products and services.
Yes, and Zeus is only needed as a backup since there’s an Alby Lightning address.
Hell yeah. Keep it up my friend ✊
Go to the right meetups!
This seems to be the first merchant using Alby Hub for payments!
