Square will turn on, by default, accepting Bitcoin Lightning payments for all its merchants*
This is the most exciting announcement for me from the Bitcoin 2025 conference in LV.
Highlights:
1) Square's announcement: https://x.com/Square/status/1927396327039684690
2) Accepting bitcoin will be on by default: https://primal.net/e/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzpq35r7yzkm4te5460u00jz4djcw0qa90zku7739qn7wj4ralhe4zqqszsqvlrm69y5u3ctgwpuh4lnpj3d79rqpzf8traze2nf6hyhy8j0gwflml0
3) Square has 4 million customers in the US alone: https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqs05xeh52lpkmefmd6qkwcs089nke7333rq922wf38tn22c4htdk3sdg97cp
4) Though not a Square customer, Steak n' Shake recently began accepting Bitcoin. They save on processing fees and keep 50% of it in Bitcoin. https://primal.net/e/nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzqk0maeeknhmhz0dml2dmmvyf933wh2ffyvnpt3hly7ra5wzvkac0qqsvcggfjes9hg8aryz4y2gmu0haukvdlw5yz4ayq3nau2vuaw2xypqgxpvdz
