gm folks!
Another lovely Sunday here in Barrio Bitcoin, Guatemala City! @pamarias and I went out for lunch to a cool and delicious ramen joint called Umai Social Club. They accept Bitcoin over Lightning, so of course, they accept $HIVE and $HBD whether they know it or not.
It was the perfect opportunity to make a little video showing folks just how easy it is for a content creator to use the magic internet money we receive from creating valuable content for our audience.
In this video we use the @v4vapp and @keychain to pay for a Lightning invoice.
Of course I also shared this video directly on X. If you think this video might help someone out there, feel free to give it a repost :)
Thanks for stopping by!

Awesome! Btw Barrio Bitcoin sounds like a cool place to visit hehe :)
@tipu curate
Yeah, there are a few shops that will gladly accept Bitcoin over Lightning, however, a lot of hard core bitcoiners only HODL and don't like to spend 😄. That leaves a gap wide open for hungry folks like me to go out and record the process (and get upvoted for it).
Let me try again...

That's one of the best promos I've ever seen, man. You're really good at this. I hope this video gets in front of a lot of people on the internet and we can bring someone into the Hive ecosystem!
Thanks my friend! I also posted it on X, give a repost if you think more people should see it. We can definitely bring more people to the HIVE ecosystem by showing them how intuitive it is to use and how well it integrates with existing Lightning payment systems.
I reposted it man. Thanks a lot for your contribution to Hive
That is awesome. Not only did their ramen look delicious, but paying for it with HBD must have felt great. I also think this is great publicity for both the store and Hive. I hope more stores follow suit and accept BTC/Hive payments like this.
There are a bunch already in my city. I'm going to make it a priority to visit as many as I can and make little videos like this one.
Step 2 is to get some businesses to accept (and hold) $HBD directly and maybe they can hire another Hivean to do some kind of work.
I want to see these parallel economies grow.
That seems like a good plan. If it isn't that widely used, I would think the servers themselves would talk about it with people they know. Word of mouth can be very powerful as well. Maybe set up a group or create a post that lists all these stores and share them with the Guatemala Hive group [if there is one].
Really great! Things are being made much easy with HBD and HIVE. Excellent! Hope this prevails in every country.
Yes! It's incredibly easy for both the shop and the customer. We just need to keep making videos showing people so that they make the transition to self-custody and decentralized ecosystems. We're getting there.
Yes via video its more easy for peoples to understand with the transition. Good one!
It will be a good thing to see people accepting HBD as means of payment for their businesses
I like that and thanks for making HBD more popular
As long as they accept Bitcoin over Lightning we can already use V4V app and Keychain. Step 2 will be to get businesses to accept $HBD directly.
Bruh
Now that is a game changer! Heck!

It is interesting to know that Hive and HBD can be use for transaction.
Absolutely! $HIVE and $HBD are magic internet money and can be converted into delicious ramen and other tasty goods in real life.
wow this is great, thanks a lot for sharing your experience. life is good if you have HBD and hive with you 😅
