Too bad Cash App payments can be risky to accept, as you could instead sell your ⚡ sats on RoboSats for Cash App USD.

What other reason would you have to send sats to Cash App then?

To buy stuff with sats

Lol, now I'm confused.

You are saying you would send sats to Cash App then spend those sats from Cash App to buy stuff? About the only reason I can think someone would do that is because it makes an easy way to move sats from Lightning network to on-chain, and even for that there are better ways.

I haven't given it much thought, since I won't have the option anyway. In general, I figure more options the better. My earlier anti fiat comment was tongue in cheek. Of course if you want to sell your bitcoin that's your business.
