Using NFC for peer-to-peer Bitcoin payments might be the key to making Bitcoin a much more seamless medium of exchange. Whether it is a tap card or phone to phone transfer, the fact that most people already own a phone and even more will in the next 3 to 5 years makes this kind of feature absolutely essential. Especially if it can work without internet, allowing value to move across the Bitcoin network in any environment.

I tried to onboard a local street vendor in Chicago selling elotes with Cashapp but it surely wasn’t as seamless as I thought it would be.
In conclusion he has no Sats and I had to tip him with Fiat. Aqua would have been the better choice but translating English to Spanish and vis versa was another barrier.
Basically on Cashapp there wasn’t a quick way to hit receive bitcoin but only scan a QR code. Maybe I was rushing idk but even still it wasn’t as easy as send or receive bitcoin, especially in a non-custodial way but hey that’s FIAT- Cashapp.
