Shortwave Coffee starts accepting Bitcoin in three US states

  • Bitcoin payments are live at Shortwave Coffee shops in three US states
  • Integration runs through Square terminals with no separate setup
  • The push came from local Bitcoiners rather than a corporate campaign
  • Customers pay in BTC at the spot rate, and the shop decides whether to keep sats
Why it matters: The case shows retail Bitcoin adoption can grow bottom-up once payment providers make the infrastructure available.
