10 sats \ 2 replies \ @DarthCoin 9 Jan \ on: Bitcoin works. So why don’t most businesses use it? builders bitcoin bitcoin_beginners
Bitcoin was created by Satoshi Nakamoto with a clear and radical premise for its time: a purely peer-to-peer electronic cash system, capable of enabling direct online payments between people without going through financial institutions.

Yet with this post you are promoting exactly an intermediary (Zatobox).

Instead of pasting a bunch of shitGPT text, you better make a short analysis about the product you want to promote, why merchants would use your product instead of others.

I understand your intentions but you start with a wrong foot.

Thank you for reading and for the direct feedback.

Anything related to GPT was used solely for translation purposes and because I thought it might be a good idea to slightly summarize the content; that’s why I’ll share the full version in both Spanish and English.

In this post, I’m not trying to take sides or say what is good or bad, since each of us is free to choose. Starting from that premise, the post aims to provoke reflection in the reader through the questions I raise perhaps to encourage businesses not to remain passive or to be afraid of change, especially if they already believe in Bitcoin.

The post is not intended to sell anything. It’s true that I make a small nod to my own work, and including it may give the impression that I’m unfocused or that I don’t know my audience. I don’t claim to know everything no one holds the absolute truth so I prefer to briefly explain what ZatoBox is.

ZatoBox is, first and foremost, an inventory management and administration platform, with additional modules that make business operations easier. As a believer in Bitcoin, I try to be proactive in this cause while, at the same time, opening market space with a real solution for merchants. That’s why I talk about Bitcoin and its potential, but always from an initial sales approach focused on my audience not from Bitcoin itself, but from a business solution for inventory management for small businesses, and only later introducing BTC.

On the technical side, we are not custodians of funds, nor do we charge transaction fees. We simply provide the connection to Bitcoin. This could be considered, in a way, a third party ideally, the best option is to operate with one’s own nodes. However, since we are just getting started and are a very small team, our short-term vision is for ZatoBox to be completely self-hosted, so that it does not depend on us, either technologically or in terms of inventory management, additional modules, or Bitcoin nodes.

I invite you to check out our GitHub repository, as it is open source and built with the community in mind.

If you were referring to the idea of Merchants as P2P nodes, that was a concept that emerged while I was writing the post. It probably needs to be explored in much more detail, but I liked the idea and encourage you to share your thoughts on how it could be made less dependent on third parties.
