This week we updated our merchant list on our page.
Now with a direct integration to
- and a (severely) reduced list of "qualified merchants".
As everyone who's tried "orange-pilling merchants" knows - turnover is brutal.
Shops close, owners stop bothering... - our static merchant page essentially constantly outdated = just not a reliable guide anymore!
As the overhead of maintaining a static and reasonably accurate merchant list became too high, we rather support from here on out the efforts of BTCMap - and so you should you!
BTCMap is a free and open source project (FOSS) and fully relies on donations and sponsorship to continue.
If you like what they're doing - consider throwing them a few Sats.
We will still keep a "qualified merchant" list around for merchants which have lasted for more than two years at a minimum (which is right now rather thin!).
But better a clean short list, than a long wrong list with many outdated listings!
Thanks once more for the advice and assistance to Leo Weese and the #BTCMap team who has been dedicating the past couple of years to bring this project to the clean & professional level it is now! 🙌
