Bitcoin Hits Swiss Supermarkets
Bitcoin has made its way to the grocery aisles in Switzerland. A Spar supermarket in Zug is now accepting Bitcoin payments via the Lightning Network, marking a major move toward real-world crypto adoption.
The rollout was supported by DFX Swiss, which offers crypto-to-fiat payment solutions. The payment system uses LNURL, an open P2P standard enabling fast and efficient in-person crypto transactions.
Switzerland remains a global leader in crypto-friendly policies. Cities like Lugano already accept Bitcoin and Tether (USDT) for municipal payments, reinforcing the country’s status as a crypto hub.
