Re: My Online Shopping Exp. With Bitcoin – Faster, Cheaper Than Visa, Paypal
Hi all i just wanted to share my experience recently using bitcoin since the implementation of SegWit, i went online shopping and when i proceeded to the checkout of clothing store Marbek i selected Coinbase as Payment method. I was presently surprised at how fast bitcoin was and how the whole process was overall. https://www.cointrust.com/news/my-online-shopping-exp-with-bitcoin-faster-cheaper-than-visa-paypal
Unfortunately you didn't not pay directly via BTC.
You used coinbase, which is just as you would have used Visa, a 3rd party service.
So the title should be about Coinbase, Paypal and Visa, not bitcoin.
Nice article and congratulation for discovering merchant which accept zero-confirmation 
Also, almost-instant transaction confirmation aka zero-confirmation already used/accepted since few years ago even without SegWit.

It's not the merchant doing this.
It was Coinbase because he/she had already an verified account with them.
