Find Bitcoin-Friendly Coffee Shops – We Need Submissions

Just imagine Gold was used as money, but you quickly realize that weighing and dividing gold is cumbersome. So someone creates a layer 2, prints green paper bills in arbitrary denominations and that very someone guarantees you can exchange those green paper bills at a fixed rates for ounces of gold. You exchange green paper bills, the green paper bills have value, but the underlying asset still is gold. Until that someone decided no longer to do the exchange to gold for those green sheets of paper, and basically performed the first rug-pull in history. That is where bitcoin steps in, as its decentralization guarantees there is no such rug-pull. And lightning is the green bills that can be exchanged for the underlying bitcoin anytime, without relying on the promise of a third party.
