Title: Google Wallet, NFC, and bitcoin discussion
Post by: tonto on September 23, 2011, 07:19:47 PM
So, with the Google Wallet launch (for androids with NFC), and rumors of the iPhone 5 possibly having NFC, how trivial would it be to add bitcoin support for transactions?    Having a bitcoin wallet app that utilized such feature would be F-ing sweet.
 
Obviously it would need support for clicking on a "yes send this payment" lest you be robbed of your bit coins, but I see potential here!!
 
Of course if you knew what you were gonna buy, you could transfer just a set amount instead of your whole btw wallet.
 
Thoughts?  Opinions?

I agree.  A phone-based bitcoin wallet that can convert to NFC-enabled payments is inevitable
