I went to the farmers market this weekend and I ended up getting my second vendor interested. I just ask every vendor whose products I like if they accept Bitcoin. If they say no, I say “It’s great, you should try it. It doesn’t lose value over time like government printed money. Want me to show you how easy it is?” Then show them the send and receive screen on your Lightning wallet. It immediately makes it real.
That will either spawn further conversation and an opportunity to show them how to set up a wallet, or quickly qualify the person as disinterested. At the very least it’s another touch point in their life, of the handful it takes for someone to dive down the rabbit hole on their own.
Farmers markets or small Mom and Pops seem to be the best for obvious reasons, since you are more likely to be speaking with the decision maker.
For other businesses, the Bitcoin on-boarding pack from Bitcoin rocks is really great too.
