>transfer 1 BTC to a wallet
>takes 25 minutes

ah yes the new "currency", let me wait 25 minutes in starbucks for my transaction to be confirmed by some chink power farm, and people thought this was worth something

transactions are instant in bitcoin. you dont need to wait for confirms if the store is running a full node.

have you ever even paid for anything in bitcoin? it takes less than a second. in fact, go buy a 4chan pass and see how fast it is for the merchant to accept.

pretty sure I had to wait 20 minutes for that one. Also there is a big difference between a digital asset that can be revoked instantly for free at any point in the future if your trade doesnt go through, and an actual physical object that is going to walk out the door never to be seen again.

Can I redirect my credit card transaction to my own bank account?

>> No.11806922

It's a shortcoming on Starbucks side if they don't use payment channels, and in light of this shortcoming of their business, they shouldn't be paranoid that you'd attempt to double-spend a single cup of Coffee on them.

Oh sure. Because who wouldn't want to replace a regulated bank and FDIC protection with the security of knowing that your transactions are being verified by someone you don't know on the other side of the world.

The only thing better than that are people who are paranoid about government overreach yet have no problem with every one of their transactions being public record forever.
