They pay with USDC on CircleChain but your payment termainl only receives StripeUSD on StripeChain. But once you get StripeUSD, you want to transfer it to your account with Bank of America, so you need to transfer

- This is why we have to build technology that outcompetes the old surveillance infested internet. With, bitcoin, lightning, nostr & ecash we are going to create a UX that outcompetes the old internet. One that respects privacy. Follow us to be the first to see when we launch.“Privacy is for criminals” is a psyop Privacy is the best first line of defense you can have to protect yourself from criminals. An exposed target is an easy target. Politicians just want to get rid of privacy so they can rob you themselves.
- Our project was Portal Business: a merchant-oriented version of Portal. With Portal Business you can easily get paid, issue and verify tickets with apple-wallet-like contactless UX. You can also automate workflows for repetitive actions without writing a single line of code

The EU's "Chat Control" proposal is horrifying. There's no way to implement this safely. It will destroy private communications online entirely. If you're in the EU, please fight this. - If only there was a global, decentralised, permission less, pseudonymous payment protocol. If only the UX was as slick and private. 🤔🤔Reality of Google Pay compared to Apple Pay Now you know - Google knows about every freaking payment you make while Apple doesn’t Apple is the most secure platform.

GIFit's pretty sick but tbh it was bound to happen once we have a micropayment system for bitcoin that just works. in the bitcoin space, we're very focussed on the user-facing wallet use case. machines paying machines is a wholly different (and very big) pie though. - We need to make privacy the default. Make it effortless. This is the way.
- After 16 years of Bitcoin why isn't there a Google/Apple Pay alternative yet? Is it really that hard to have a wallet where I can pay all my subscriptions, tickets etc...? It is, and we're building it. If you want this, follow us, you'll want to be the first to try it out.
