This is what I think we expect to see as merchants wake up. The idea that WE are asking THEM to make a decision that makes a heck of a lot more sense for them than it does for us is one of those things that's always a little silly. If I have filthy fiat, and they'll accept it, it makes way more sense to get rid of it before it is further devalued. If they take credit cards, it makes sense to me to get rewards (though arguably there's privacy I give up in this process too, so it's less clear cut). They're the ones who have every incentive to get around credit card fees; I'm not the one being charged those.

Always makes me a little amused if a merchant says "sorry, no" because it's very much something I'm asking if I can do them a favor. Sort of like "Do you have a place you'd like me to wipe my feet before I come into your space?"

Nice you found one that is waking up a bit.
