Setting up a Lightning wallet took seconds, so we sent first-time users in Scottsdale to see how Arizona Bitcoin spending really works. In 2025 the state government passed a Strategic Arizona Bitcoin Reserve , but I understand the state still hasn’t bought any coins. We can’t wait for the government to use bitcoin before we use it, or it will never happen. The question is, can a normal person walk into a shop and pay with bitcoin? I have some friends in Scottsdale who have never used bitcoin in real life, so I asked them to test it.
