Square to Offer Bitcoin Payments at Retail POS Terminals

Square is set to revolutionize retail payments with the launch of Bitcoin integration into its Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals in 2025. Jack Dorsey’s company, Block, aims to empower small businesses with faster and cost-effective BTC transactions via the Lightning Network. This move comes as cryptocurrency usage within retail continues to grow, offering consumers a convenient alternative for payments. Square previously launched Bitcoin Conversions, paving the way for this latest integration. The company’s integration of Bitcoin payments is expected to boost the volume of transactions on the Lightning Network and further encourage adoption in the market.
