In London there are often small stickers with QR codes on traffic lights or street lamp poles. Sometimes they're pretty obvious with an image of a marijuana leaf.
When you go to the address it's a full online store with really professionally packaged joints and edibles, and a shipping and return policies etc. They even have Google and Trust Pilot reviews! This is all despite cannabis being technically illegal in the UK.
For one particular vendor I've seen (nila.bz) they accept crypto for payment and even give a 15% discount. Sadly, they do not accept Lightning. My suspicion is that it's some kind of Finance related payment plugin because there's some reference to Trust Wallet.
A couple of interesting notes for me:
1. Because it's illegal there is no regulation, and yet trusted vendors are around to provide a quality service where the market demands it.
2. Vendors want crypto more than fiat (hence the discount), but clearly the message about Lightning hasn't reached them (or maybe they don't know how to receive privately).
