Embed a map of merchants accepting XMR and BTC into Cake Wallet

[TheFuzzStone]

There is a good project with good UX/UI - https://btcmap.org/.

If you fork it, add XMR and integrate it into Cake Wallet, the wallet will turn from “just a wallet” into a kind of guidebook/travel guide, when a user opens the wallet to:

1. find a merchant that accepts XMR and BTC
2. pay for goods/services with the same wallet

Love the idea. Would be good to have merchants able to self-register, somehow?

Yeah, but the last time I added a merchant on OSM... I'll tell you 99.99% of normies won't do it. 😅

My idea is for the Monero community to have 1 map that is actively supported by the community, and that if other people want to make their own map app, to have the data taken from one place so that 1 merchant doesn't have to add themselves to 2-3-4 maps.

For now, the most correct thing for me seems to be to put merchants into OSM, and from there pull data for a more UX/UI pleasing and merchant-oriented Monero app, like https://btcmap.org/
