i’m in lisbon and as you know there’s a blackout in portugal and spain

perfect time to onboard your favourite restaurant or coffee shop to crypto, as merchants can’t accept card payments

impressive to see the lines to pay with cash, much slower than what we are used to

yeah true what i meant is that all the merchants in town are forced to cash now

there’s a time window to pitch them

I mean power is a pretty crucial ingredient for crypto too dawg 😂

if they have a charged phone with active internet connection (4g/5g)

How would they be able to accept crypto payments during a blackout?

i don’t know how but internet and cell service was kind of working

Do you not need electricity for internet/cell service? I kind of assumed you do.

After hurricane Helene, we didn't have electricity OR cell service in western North Carolina 

(and I'm actually working in a post about how this shook my faith in crypto)

Lucky you still have network connection

Can’t reach my family for more than 5 hours 😕

I heard that even in France there is no electricity, my mum called me today, she lives in Alicante, I was very surprised by such a global problem

You are witnessing the humiliation of the fiat system.

In a future ruled by Bitcoin, payments are made at the highest speed under any circumstances.
