Today I tried 4 times to pay for ice cream using a phenomenal crutch called Lightning Network.
And I always got the error you see in the screenshot.
Even though the merchant was using Wallet of Satoshi (essentially an Excel version of Bitcoin), that is, even with this level of centralization it was not possible to take advantage of this wonderful technology.
Explained to him that with Monero he would have no problems with on-chain payment, that the fees on the network are $0.02 dollars + privacy by default.
He said he would create an XMR wallet.
