gm and happy Sunday!
Had a bit of a work day today, but no worries, I still managed to finish before sunset and head down to the local pub to make a quick video on how to use @keychain and @v4v.app to pay an Lightning invoice instantly.
It's incredibly simple and this merchant, who already accepts bitcoin payments, will never know the difference. To them, it's just another customer paying with bitcoin.
In my opinion, every Hivean should try this out. Someone looking over your shoulder might get curious and ask what you're doing.
I've also posted this video on X. Feel free to stop by, comment and share:

Restaurants like this can be tricky. This place gets regular audits from the Internal Revenue Service, health, and even Performing Rights Organizations (PROs), so they're a bit reluctant to try anything that isn't sttrictly by the book and could potentially get them fined. I spoke to my new barber shop though and I'll be onboarding them shortly and sharing some videos with my experience.
Small shops like that are more willing to try something new.
its a shame, if there is an issue, their crypto wallet address can be given to the IRS and they can easily see transactions coming in!
I hope you are only shaving the beard in the barbers ;)

Hive Power Up Day - December 1st 2024
Yes. I believe this is currently THE MOST compelling use case for HIVE as far as individual users goes. We're on our way to bringing more businesses here which is the most certain way to take $HIVE off the market, driving price up, and attracting more individual users.
Hive's growth is inevitable.

There is a pub in Theale (nr Reading, England) that accepts such payments or so I believe, I found this info on https://btcmap.org plus apparently a barber in Crowthorne takes lightning too.
It would seem quite surreal using Bitcoin or Hive via v4v.app in the UK, as I associate it so much with Central America, I guess because it’s talked about so much in those countries.
If I get the chance to buy a beer from the pub I mention, I’ll do a post. If they still do accept such payments and it’s a nice pub, could be a great Hive meet-up location, it’s close to the M4 and has two train stations nearby.
