I'm on vacation right now. (Italy). I checked coinmap.org to see who is accepting here. Showed up in a beach bar. Ordered an espresso and asked for btc payment. Owner said I'm the first in 3 years. Showed me an old bitpay wallet with an on-chain address. Explained lightning to him and showed him bitrefill.com as well if he wanted to cash out. He was very thankful. Bitrefill with its vast offerings of giftcards is an underestimated service to orange pill people imho.
100% yes
