Compass Coffee Shop Debuts First-Ever Bitcoin Payment on Square Terminal in Washington, DC
A customer just bought a coffee using bitcoin at Compass Coffee. This reportedly marked the first-ever Square terminal in the world to accept bitcoin.
The pilot launch, showcased during DC Fintech Week, was made possible through Square’s new Bitcoin payment integration. According to a Compass Coffee X post, the system worked seamlessly across multiple Bitcoin wallets, demonstrating the power of open payment standards and the Lightning Network.
Compass Coffee, a beloved D.C. chain with 27 locations, hosted the demonstration and invited lawmakers and fintech leaders to see the technology in action. “Cannot wait to see this come to Square devices worldwide soon,” the team posted on X.
