Lol, yeah, so the easiest method is to rewrite a BTC framework/wallet to run on BCH? My point is made. Should not be this hard to build a service that can interact w/ the #1 merchant.
Are you being serious? Change “bitcoin” to “bitcoincash” in the HTTP header and URI.
Uh, you got a link (or 8)? The closest I could find last night was bitcoinj's API - which is for BTC only, unless I am mistaken.
BitcoinJ, Electrum, bread. Converting between BTC and BCH should be the easy part.
Well, yes... But my point is that there are no frameworks or tools to easily build a wallet with BIP70 support. No tutorials or guides, even. You literally have to do it from scratch.
Search for it. Literally 5 docs and 3 open source wallets pop up on the first page 🤔
Example: The single biggest payment processor only takes BIP70 payments. Someone with little coding experience should be able to easily build a BIP70 enabled service. Im a sftwr engineer & don't know where to start..
BIP70 is one part of it, much like BIP32, BIP39, sort-of BIP43, and BIP44 all make up a "wallet."
If that smartphone Presidential Alert is used for anything other than disclosing UFO's or a call for a nationwide meditation/prayer session, it is just going to be a whole lot less exciting.
(cont) It has existed in some form since the early 60s (EBS and CONELRAD). It's the same system that sends tornado warnings.

The only time in the history of the EBS/EAS that called for a national alert, it wasn't used. The first national test was a disaster. This test was much better. (cont)
BCH is backed by miners, no?
And a kick ass community obviously ;)
Nah, it’s all mathematics at the root level and it’s universal. Even alien civilizations would understand this because mathematics is the language of the universe.
I reduced my 4 hour instruction to people about what is Bitcoin to “It’s like money.” And when pressed further for details I respond “it’s, it’s just like money.”
It’s not LIKE money, it IS money. Dollar is backed by US, Euro is backed by EU, BCH is backed by the universal truth of mathematics 😁
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"
We need a marketing buzzword. 0-conf has no meaning to someone who doesn't know the protocol. "Instant" something?

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?
(cont) Maybe make the analogy that a cup of coffee requires no confirmation, but a large bill or high priced item is checked. Then tie in the word "confirmation" with what 0-conf is.

Honored? You mean display the dislikes? That's all they'd be "honoring".
Correct. If a site uses the upvote/downvote system, another may completely ignore them.
@memo @jason hey man, just saying thanks for all of your hard work. This is truly groundbreaking. 🥃
Why not just have a down-thumb/vote or dislike that does nothing but display a number?
Allowing that would increase # of TXs.
People could Manually scan content based on it.
You could, and you could even publish those to the blockchain. But the sites/apps that display the content may not honor it. For me, I’d rather not deal with voting.
Here's a post I put together about it: https://jasonc.me/blog/chained-0-conf-transactions-memo
"These limits were added unnecessarily" = 👏👏👏👏. Get the crap that forces off chain txns out of our code base.
I've just begun a nice break from work for a couple of weeks so I plan to fix as many bugs as possible.
Please let me know of any bugs you encounter in the Memo App thread! ✌️
A couple weeks? How do I get a job like that? 😂
As far as I know... transactions with multiple OP_RETURNs in one transaction are considered "non-standard" by miners and are not relayed at present... would thus need to do multiple..
The protocol doesn't prohibit it. A miner could mine a transaction with more than 1 provably unspendable output. The issue is the nodes consider them nonstandard and won't relay them.
I should be able to get you one. I didn't know it was invite only. I will tweet the Ryan X. Charles.
Wow, I didn’t realize it was invite either. Is there a process or do we just tweet the guy?
"Anonymous" doesn't provide any data or context. Can't have a conversation with "Anonymous" because you can't follow the thread of messages. Everyone has an address, we should use it.
The text differentiates people (e.g. if multiple anonymous people were replying to each other). Otherwise it would be hard to follow the conversation. It could be shortened though.
I like seeing the PKH if they didn't set a name. Maybe show the cashaddr instead of base58, and shorten the cashaddr as "xxxx...yyyy" by showing the first 4 and last 4.
Set default profile name as Anonymous instead of random text. Not all of us want or care about usernames - we just want to participate in discussion whilst contributing to the BCH network

@scriptSig yes you're right, I used bch price 500 usd, also bigger tx because we could have to use more then one input. Also I was thinking to use op_return that's not necessary.
