Title: Need help receiving btc to local (offline wallet) Post by: papaminer on April 19, 2013, 02:01:51 AM Let's say..
I sell 99999999 items online.... I will provide my wallet address and users send btc to that address... How can I determine... which is which without a label? For example: person1 buys an iphone4 for 1BTC and sends the btc to my 1wallet address person2 buys and iphone5 for 5BTC and sends the btc to my 1wallet address... How can I determine which person paid/sent money?

Like... how do bitmit.net handles thousands of sales...
