Haha yesterday was quite interesting. Needed to buy milk and produce at my organic grocery store. The bill came to $81.83. To pay for this with bitcoin I did the following
1.Opened my the bitcoin company(TBC) app 2.Went to visa pre paid cards and entered the amount of $81.83 3. Selected to pay via Zeus wallet 4. Zeus wallet acknowledge the request I slide to pay 5. About 45 seconds later payment is confirmed 6. Open up TBC app and get my challenge token 7. Copy paste the token into the pre-paid card redemption field 8. Get my credit card number exp and security code 9. Open Apple wallet 10. Select add debit or credit card 11. Manually entered in the card details
At this time the cashier suspends my order because about 5mins have passed and the customer behind me was told to start loading their groceries šš
And before the cashier can start scanning the customerās items I say Iām ready. He recalls my order and I make payment via Apple Pay.
A lot of work to use bitcoin to pay for my groceries. But until shops take Bitcoin directly this is the way unfortunately. So
Next time load the prepaid card in advance and consider that your budget or max amount you can spend on that shopping trip.
Is a bit of time invested, but worth the effort (and challenge) I think. In this other case, the card would have stayed with some unusable credit... or there's a way to discharge cards when containing some change?
That would be ideal but it will cause clutter and extra tracking I rather not deal with. I have gift cards already with random amounts
Nah I donāt like to do this then you have a card with like random amount of dollars and cents. I like to spend the cards to zero then delete them. Donāt want to start having 5 or 10 cards with random amounts on them
How do you like the card overall? I've tried the coinbase card but honestly their app's UX is so bloated and sucks these days
Itās just a prepaid card itās easy
That's what happen when going shopping without a list š¤£
Kudos for ramping up such a complicated flow across three apps in such a short time... just in time I'd say!
LOL that doesn't count. You are perpetuating the use of fiat and not bitcoin.
LOL and you name this a payment with bitcoin.... pathetic fiat maxi.
I assume everyone is trying doing the best they can, depending on diversified needs and environment.
But that doesn't mean they use bitcoin, they just go back to fiat and even worse, they support perpetuating the use of fiat. These posts it supposed to be a P2P payment using bitcoin not bullshit crap intermediaries fiat ramps.
Why should I always remember why we are here and what really is Bitcoin?
I do not see anywhere in this abstract saying about Visa cards as usual payments for bitcoin...
It's a fact, we need to build more Bitcoin infrastructure and services outside (and disconnected from) the fiat world!
We already have infrastructure and rails and solutions. We just need people to leave the fiat rails and do not pretend anymore to be bitcoiners.
Exactly. Some people rather I starve then use dollars and cards to pay for food.
Bought some coffee from sats.coffee and paid off a credit card bill via Spritz Finance
Nice! I did not know about Spritz.. I'll check it out!
It's pretty cool for what it is. Bitrefill had a bill pay feature but it's been shelved in the US so Spritz has been the alternative for now. No lightning support yet unfortunately
Can't quite remember, normally I use Monero...
Might have been some social media accounts? Oh then I've also used some sats that I've earned to power up some trial accounts on Hive, tiny stuff really.
I'm not spending Bitcoin easily!
I love how shitcoiners will always reveal themselves... they always pretend to be bitcoiners.
Curious to know how you're spending your XRM 𤣠Hodling Bitcoin till the end of times, eh?
Mainly for VPNs like Mullvad, domains from Njalla and some server stuff, all things where me leaving no traces of my real ID makes sense, especially long term :-)
And in a way Monero has been a sort of stablecoin for that, that is because its not heavily traded and that it is propped up by the only real free markets online!
