As reported by CryptoSlate, Block has enabled Bitcoin payments across its Square merchant network, allowing approximately 4 million sellers to accept Lightning Network payments at the point of sale. The service offers 0% processing fees until 2027, followed by a 1% fee, and allows merchants to settle in Bitcoin or convert to USD.
