There are many off of I-95 once you're south of Jersey. If you're qualified you can buy a franchise for 10k down.

Siggy if I send you 10k will you be my strawman frachise director while your local warlords transition out of their nazi phase? I don't like being forced to be an ETH loving vegetarian just because of where I was born. haha.

I don't even think the company would issue a franchise in NY. They know better😀

The CEO has some I teresting ideas. He's really committed to growing the company, and his commitment to bitcoin seems real.

I agree that excluding the NE from growth focus for now could be a good headache avoidance strategy.

How does this work for PubKey? They accept sats, right?

Evan set up a Zeus wallet when they opened. It's good, but the regulatory crap keeps them from pushing people to pay in bitcoin. I know someone whose friend works in the DC PubKey. They have a different setup. Apparently the regs are much simpler, the wallet is faster (maybe custodial?), and they actually encourage bitcoin payments.

Hmm faster (on average) really depends on your location in the graph I think.

I had an idea about this last week and used Blixt (because the latest Zeus is giving me more hangs than I have time to process right now) to open a channel to a LNBiG hub and most my payments now settle within 5s, in fact outperforming Phoenix, which often seems to take a bit longer to do the back and forth. Note that my mobile lnd is vpn-routed across a quarter of the world most of the time, over LTE, and that alone costs me a second or 2 of latency.

Wow cheap!

It is cheap.
