Many people may misunderstand the headline, but that's not the point. I actually wanted to explain that Square has made everyday transactions usable and easy for ordinary people by using the Lightning Network, which is a new direction, i.e. a new way of Bitcoin transactions. Sometimes, people misunderstand because the presentation of words and the content are different, because I am not promoting Square or the Lightning Network here, but rather I am talking about presenting the easy use of Bitcoin to ordinary people. I wanted to explain a new chapter in practical terms, not about technological innovation.
If it's about payment processor who accept Lightning Network, those payment processors already accept it before Square did it.

There also many places accept Lightning network too https://acceptlightning.com/

What people highlight is it the first company who implement lightning network in payment processor? if it's not the first company, why they get highlight?
