@Bitcoin_Bull_21 @r0ckstardev @milessuter @Square We manually verify every submission, including those received via our API from Square. It's the only way to keep quality high. Watch along here: gitea.btcmap.org/teambtcmap/btc…

@r0ckstardev @milessuter @Square @btcmap From what I understand, BTC Map is mostly manually updated, so it may not list most of the new Square terminals accepting Bitcoin. I hope that's incorrect though. Please correct me if so.

We’re making it easier for millions of businesses to accept bitcoin. Starting today, eligible U.S. @Square sellers will begin having Bitcoin payments automatically enabled. Sellers who accept bitcoin will receive USD as default. This is how bitcoin as everyday money begins.

Meet Ola, a merchant in our circular economy. When we first introduced him to Bitcoin, he didn’t even have his own place. He was working as a stylist in a barbershop. Today, he has his own shop. We onboarded him, and now he uses Bitcoin in his business. We asked him, “What is the smallest unit of Bitcoin?” He answered confidently: “Sat.” Someone who knew nothing about Bitcoin months ago is now using it seamlessly. From zero knowledge… to real usage. No hype. No noise. Just Bitcoin working. #BitcoinIkorodu

Meet Gloria, a merchant in our circular economy. When we first introduced her to Bitcoin, she wasn’t sure. Now, after using it for months, she says: “Bitcoin is money, ..." This is the real impact we’re seeing; ordinary merchants, using Bitcoin in daily life, and thriving. This is the future we’re building; real adoption, real stories. Stay tuned for more merchant Proof-of-Work 🔥 #BitcoinIkorodu

Square to auto-enable Bitcoin payments via Lightning Network for all eligible sellers on March 30, 2026. h/t @nickslaney

BREAKING: SQUARE TO AUTO-ENABLE BITCOIN PAYMENTS FOR MILLIONS OF SELLERS Square will auto-enable Bitcoin payments for all eligible sellers starting March 30, 2026, according to an updated Terms of Service notice sent to users. The change means millions of businesses using Square could soon begin accepting Bitcoin by default, rather than opting in manually. The rollout is part of Block’s broader push to integrate Bitcoin payments across its ecosystem, leveraging the Lightning Network for fast, low-cost transactions. Sellers will still have the option to disable the feature or automatically convert Bitcoin to USD at the point of sale. With Square powering millions of merchants globally, this marks a major step toward making Bitcoin a standard payment method in everyday commerce.
