It’s downright impressive just how much friction BitPay managed to add to paying with lightning. The whole “bitpay verified” thing (which requires KYC at any amount and appears to be a totally made up requirement that no one else is even aware of) makes it totally impractical to use any EU BitPay merchant, which means I use bitcoin a hell of a lot less than I’d like.
