Title: api recive money
Post by: spyvingen on May 01, 2013, 07:15:44 AM
I am about to start a home page to recive and send money from and i would just like to confirm so i do right here.

Btw im gonna use blockchain.info api for this.

1 create adress
2 let ppl send money to that adress.
3 wait for 6 confirm
4 do what i want with the money
5 archive the adress.

Would this be the right way to do it?

And then when i send money can i just send it via api and then let it go or is there something i should think of here?

Thanks in advance

EDIT: Do i need to generate something else then the adress btw like a secret key or something?

Just read the documentation: http://blockchain.info/api

The way you implement it depends on your goals. 'home page to recive and send money from' doesn't say much.. do you need to accept btc only? Is it small or big money? (eg do you care about possible double spending?) Do you need to send money from the API too? Etc.

Thanks for the reply.

Most of the transactions will be small but it is possible that large amount could be transfered to.

Double spend i guess i will have to protect against so the money are safe.

All transaction will only be BTC nothing else.

The sending part will be triggerd automaticly with the api to diffrent adresses each time.

Hope this answers the questions.

EDIT: ihave read on api page the prolem isnt the cude but how i should do it to not miss anything. I guess you here have some more experience then me :)
