That is pretty awesome
So do you have to ask them to pay in bitcoin or will that cashapp QR code just automatically be a lightning QR code now?
Asking the real questions. This headline’s everywhere but the actual news is much less significant if this isn’t seamless.
They already allow you to send your usd balance to any lightning QR so it would make no sense for them not to make this change but from all the other improvements they’ve made I wouldn’t be surprised if they stop one step shy.
Fantastic news.
Huuuuuuuuuge
love to see it
Huge. I have been at square terminals and di not want to be that guy that holds up a line to get the cashier to put up a damn QR code

There was a dude on Twitter who suggested a user-facing toggle, and Miles said he liked it and took it to the team. That would be nice to see.
