April 28, Fineko/abc.az. In the heart of the Switzerland crypto scene, Spar supermarket in Zug began accepting Bitcoin payments via the Lightning Network, allowing customers to pay for groceries by scanning a QR code at checkout.

Spar’s acceptance of Switzerland Bitcoin payment modernizes how regular consumers can pay for their groceries, defying the notion of cryptocurrencies volatility as a payment system, as making it a quick and efficient payment method at supermarket checkouts.

Until now, and largely associated with online tech communities, cryptocurrencies are moving into the domain of day-to-day transactions.

At the checkout, customers can simply scan a static QR code and pay directly from their crypto wallet. The process is fast, simple and does not require any other steps.
