In my latest piece for Forbes Crypto, I cover the great work by @npub155m2...dcvg in standardising the Lightning Network payment experience for Bitcoin conferences, with case studies from @Hodl Hodl’s Baltic HoneyBadger 2023 conference and the @Bitcoin Atlantis 2024 conference. "[...] BTCPay Server is building, iterating, and rolling out what is becoming the standard for Bitcoin payment experience over the Lightning Network, all through the power of open-source code and a talented group of global volunteers and developers." https://www.forbes.com/sites/digital-assets/2024/04/12/btcpay-server-is-reshaping-the-bitcoin-conference-payment-experience/?sh=191bfd5de269
