I used to have a few, I really don't eat out much anymore. But the food trucks are a favorite. How about you?

I completely agree, there's nothing like discovering new places "like a local." I find these are better experiences than going to tourist spots.

They must have stopped operating here than. I'm in the US and when the first started, they were here. I wonder what happened!? Either way, I'll check out Robosats. Thanks!

Great post! Definitely resourceful, thank you. I did have a question about Azteco. Did they pull out of the US? I've been looking for their vendor map and can't find it. I loved when I could just go to one and pay cash for a voucher. Is this no longer the case for the US? Even when I go online, everything seems to be priced in euros.

awesome to hear!

Jameson Lopp has a list of documentaries that can be found here: https://www.lopp.net/bitcoin-information/documentaries.html

Those are pretty much the best resources outside of Twitter.

-Lightning Junkies podcast used to be a good resource but he's no longer recording. You can still listen to his podcast episodes though: https://lightningjunkies.net/

-Thriller Bitcoin includes some articles about lightning projects: https://www.thrillerbitcoin.com/

-@cryptocoin dropped a link to a new resource this morning: https://fanismichalakis.fr/posts/latest-strikes-1/

thanks for the links!

Companies have already entered the space. There's FTX Arena and Cryto.com Arena and I'm sure others will buy naming rights/licenses for other arenas and stadiums. Some teams are even allowing fans to purchase some products with bitcoin. Here's one example: https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/houston-texans-bitwallet-partner-to-accept-bitcoin-payments

I think Bitcoin payments will become common in the industry, more players will chose to take a portion or their entire salary in bitcoin. Youth leagues could fundraise and accept Bitcoin. There's so much to the industry. The possibilities are endless!

of course not denying that, love a hot shower. I'm also really interested in how mining could heat more volumes of water like pools and what not like @Bitbaya mentioned. I just don't think it would give people here many different use cases but I would have to look into it a lot more for sure. There are truly many creative people here.

Exactly, South FL is way too hot and humid for this but I could see a high potential/benefits for people who live in cooler climates. A guide to newbies and some of us in the space would definitely help though!!

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. There are endless possibilities but getting people to see bitcoin as legitimate (outside of number go up/too volatile) for multiple use cases would definitely help. I believe as time goes on, onboarding into bitcoin will only become easier which will also help it to become mainstream. It's not as seamless as most people are used to. But there are more devs creating awesome tools and even more content creators helping to educate the public. We are still very early!!
