Nathan Day, co-founder of BTCmap.org, joins Keith for the true first episode of Everyday Bitcoin. BTCmap is the go-to tool for finding merchants that accept Bitcoin worldwide — built on OpenStreetMap, community-maintained, and now integrated with Square, Cash App, Aqua Wallet, and more.
Nathan breaks down how BTCmap actually works, why data quality matters as much as the number of pins on the map, and what the Square integration means for how fast that map could grow. They also get into the real-world craft of orange pilling merchants — what works, what doesn't, and why leading with "there's a pool of people called Bitcoiners who will go out of their way to spend money with you" beats a Bitcoin rabbit hole every time.
