Should I add "Accepts 0-conf" as a field for merchants on GreenPages.cash? Or would that just be too much clutter, because not enough people care about that just yet?
We need a marketing buzzword. 0-conf has no meaning to someone who doesn't know the protocol. "Instant" something?
Maybe InstaPay, QuickPay, Quick Transaction, Instant Transaction, FastBill, Cash Transaction(as fast as paying someone with fiat cash)
Instant would be the best buzzword. Transactions with X number of confirmations would be "guaranteed / trusted / locked transactions", but it insinuate instant tx are not..
Here are some ideas: Zero Wait, Flash Transactions, Instant Transactions, Snap-Instant, Zero Flash Payments. *shrug* Hope this will help get the brain juices flowing for others.
I like Flash. "BCH Flash accepted here." BCH Flash could be marketed as pay-and-go. A visual guide could demonstrate no tokens, no buying into LN, no separate wallets. "It just works"
Idk, flash sounds too buzzy, doesn't feel real. Also, we only need to market "Bitcoin" itself as pay-and-go, not some obscure buzzword. Keep it as dumb as possible
I get what you're saying but I also see what they're saying. It should come in partnership with advertising Bitcoin Cash, like:
BITCOIN CASH
powered by FasTransaction
ACCEPTED HERE
Another idea; BCH Instant Transactions
Why not use the word "Confirmed".
Because that clashes with the technical jargon.
What is your best guess currently?
all BCH txs are instant. most are accepted 0-conf, this takes < 2 secs. certain sensitive ones (e.g. depositing to an exchange) require extra security for the recipient ...
but (a) the protocol allows for an insurance scheme to protect the recipient when he accepts a tx without confirmation, so he need not worry ...
(b) there are paid services that will analyze an incoming tx and let the recipient know (with insurance) if it is safe to accept. (e.g.

IN SUM: ALL BCH TRANSACTIONS ARE INSTANT.
(* the riskier ones naturally require a few extra steps)
Instant Approval. Transaction Approved. Connected...
