The experience of paying over the LN differs greatly from when Subway franchises first accepted Bitcoin payments in 2014. Before the arrival of the LN, customers would have to wait for around for several minutes. The Lightning Network is the solution.

Looking for this comment. I remember back when some businesses would have headlines like this and then I was made to look foolish when I tried to go to my local store and buy something in bitcoin

This is the way. A shame that it is only being tested in Berlin. Otherwise I would definitely have a sandwich for dinner today.

i enjoy the sat standard very much but i dont enjoy using lightning because i always have to hold my breath and cross my fingers when making a transaction. That being said i dont use LN that much, so maybe i just gotta start using it more and i will maybe become more comfortable with it. That is all. Have a nice day.

Lipa is what they used.
Hinze entered into a partnership with Lipa, a Swiss-based Bitcoin company, to permit an easy-to-use point-of-sale solution.
