Paid for dinner tonight at Pitaville I Naperville with ₿ on square
terminal using my #cashu wallet. The ⚡️ transaction took approx 30s which felt like an eternity for the merchant and I.
Thanks for accepting ⚡️₿ @pitaville

We used to wait like 30 minutes paying for sushi in sf in 2013. One day this guy spammed the network w 40,000 tiny transactions creating a hellish landscape for merchants & we had to promise to come back tmrw to verify the transaction. Not the greatest experience but things get better w time.

Even stupider than Lazlo 😂
I wish I had so much bitcoin that I could spend thousands of them on a single meal
I’m on keto so would ditch the bread 🥩
30s??? Oof what wallet?
Used a mint on cashu.me over ⚡️. There were layers of tech there, but it was great to see it work!
Huh! I wonder if the mint doesn’t see a lot of use so had relatively poor ability to pick routes. Curious to know which mint/cashu server so we can figure out which LN implementation so we can see if we can improve it…..
Minibits is the mint I used for the transaction. I’ll keep trying to see if I can help find the bottleneck. Luckily the merchant only had me in line at the time.
@Blitz Wallet has a little percentage-loading-slider-thing when you send payments. It's a great little visual thing to see that the wallet is actually doing something.
Slow payment from a cashu wallet is more indicative of the mint than the wallet itself right?
30s is absolutely brutal oml. I've sent a few payments IRL before that took more than 10s and it gets very awkward very quickly.
Probably.
nothing to see here
just IOUs being shared to stay alive
