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?

Because many large companies have more media coverage and its owner was also the co-founder of Twitter, any of their activities or any steps are highlighted in the eyes of the media and investors, the media pays more attention to their steps, especially when Cash App allows millions of users to transact Bitcoin through the Lightning Network. In reality, although there are many LN projects, how it will actually be used depends on the company's infrastructure and marketing, and in this case, both this company and the co-founder of this company are successful and they speak in favor of Bitcoin's decentralized technology, so this huge user base and media coverage work in their favor.
