South Africa, let’s rev things up: An estimated 30-45% of all merchants use QR-code payment systems powered by systems like SnapScan, Zapper, and Scan to Pay. Soon you'll be able to pay with Bitcoin at 500,000+ locations across the nation with ZEUS! 🇿🇦⚡

Will that get put on your map?
You can honestly live on a bitcoin standard in South Africa! 🇿🇦 makes it especially fun as a visitor - you hardly need to exchange cash or use a foreign credit card!
Funny how sometimes the most progress occurs in places most take for granted
Finally. Sheeeit. I arrived in China in I think 2016, and the whole country had already transitioned to using QR codes. Merchants actually rejected cash when I tried paying in cash. Wild. But it immediately became clear that payments via QR code would become the norm everywhere, and whichever currency did it first would win **_all_** payments. Bitcoin has moved irritatingly slow. So slow, it seems like it must be being actively hindered.
I think they are integrating with the MoneyBadger guys to generate an invoice which you then pay, and then MoneyBadger pays the merchant.
africa and QR codes and bitcoin can all suck a dick
This is an absolute game changer for Bitcoin adoption! Seeing ZEUS bridge the gap between traditional merchants and the Lightning Network on such a massive scale is truly inspiring. You are not just providing a service you are building the infrastructure for global financial sovereignty. Huge respect for the teams vision and hard work. Cant wait to see this ignite a revolution across Africa
Maybe we need it worldwide..🤔 When something works, why not?
Absolutely, if we make it possible for multiple continents✅️
