Crypto Is Cash - Bitcoin for Small Businesses & Their Customers

Providing free, open source tools to implement the use of self-custody cryptocurrency for individuals & businesses of all kinds and sizes for the purpose of a free, independent economy.

Litecoin, Monero & Bitcoin Cash are the principle coins* I utilize as currency for everyday use.

-All three are layer 1.
-All three have very low fees.
-All three are reasonably fast.
-All three have native fungibilty tools.
-All three have development communities dedicated to their coins being used as day to day currency.

*Bitcoin is too costly to buy lunch with, Lightning is predominately custodial.
USDC is good for onboarding businesses with no volatility, low fees & no chargebacks. My testing has shown POL to be the most widely used L2 & least expensive.

Agreed. However, with so many available choices, sometimes people just like to be told what to do.

The general public has no idea what crypto is or how it works. They have no idea that it began as money. Really, even WE don't know what crypto is. Most here on Nostr are interested in the UTXO cryptos, not even considering Ethereum based crypto for money, imagine what the uninitiated must think!
I'm ok with keeping Eth out of money, it's not created for that. It's for contracts and record keeping, real bureaucratic stuff.
This is why I focus on a small basket of long standing coins. The age of the coins I chose builds trust via familiarity (especially Bitcoin).
Of the coins I've chosen, Bitcoin Cash (BCash) is by far the easiest to use. Within 35 seconds, a total stranger can be in crypto (using Selene.cash wallet), in just another 5 -10 minutes a BCH POS can be set up (using either pos.cash , bitcoin cash register app, or bitrequest.io ), the usability is truly amazing.
Litecoin is on the list because of it's current popularity as money with BitPay, and because it's a mainstream coin with a very good fungibilty feature, MWEB, which allows for a good amount of privacy without pissing off the law (not yet, anyway).
Monero is in my basket in part because of it's privacy, but largely because the community is very focused on their coin being used for daily use. They have 2 very good Amazon style marketplaces, XMRBazaar.com & MoneroMarket.io . Both are less than a year old and are growing fast.
USDC (I know, I know, it's Ethereum based) is there because it is the most trustworthy stablecoin. Yes, privacy sucks, but it is in the defi world so swapping to another coin can be simple (Komodo Wallet). Unfortunately, there are multiple layer 2's for it and this causes A LOT of confusion (and unwanted expense), so I take this choice one step further and promote using the lowest fee layer 2 I know of, Polygon (POL).
There it is, multicoin, but I've staked a marker as a ground-zero from where we can all start.
Fortunately, because of the great work being done on bitrequest.io , no one is limited to this small basket as bitrequest allows for acceptance of hundreds of coins / tokens.
Nevermind big mainstream stores. Focus on small businesses. Businesses who benefit most from paper cash transactions and avoiding credit card fees: your landscaper, auto detailer, etc.

Volatility, Taxation complications. The fact that most grocery stores are major corporations and have no real need for what crypto offers - an escape from a technocratic state (oh! the irony!)

If you can, donate some crypto to the best cash register available. Be sure to leave a note (i'm asking for improvement to Polygon / USDC).

If this part alone was true, I could be 100% behind Bitcoin, but the lowest mining fees have been in the last few years has been $0.25. That's the LOWEST. The highest was over $100!

Just like cash (paper money), bitcoin can be used privately & without surveilance. But, if you transact with bitcoin purchased, or earned, in your name in a third party record, that privacy goes away.
We encourage 100% self-custodied, no-KYC usage of bitcoin.

Every time you make a purchase, ask whomever is taking the payment, "Do you take crypto?" They will likely say No, but you've planted a seed.
Do this every single time!

BCH works great. Extremely fast transactions, super cheap fees, excellent consumer tools. It is literally working proof that BTC is as broken as the fiat system it pretends to replace.
Lightning can be used p2p, but most use a custodial service. Fedimint is entirely custodial.

Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System
Abstract
A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they’ll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone.
