Title: For love couples, true Bitcoin adoption
Post by: you2chain on July 14, 2019, 01:57:34 PM
This is a good example for adoption in the crypto space, especially for Bitcoin.
Most people live in a relationship, they have either a boy or a girlfriend, wife, husband, and so on.
We have just finished our new you2chain application (for love couples).

This app is one of the *first* non-currency applications on the Bitcoin blockchain.
..and a good example for true adoption in the crypto space. It is also somewhat *educational* in respect to the purpose and principles of a blockchain in general.

Details here:
https://you2chain.com

I would be happy to get your opinions.

Yeah, nice idea but two things:

1)

No crypto payments? Are you kidding me?

2) Let's clog the chain with even more stuff as exchanges not batching transactions aren't enough

@stompix:
Thank you for your nice words and recommendation.
Yes I agree, I should add another payment option, i.e. paying with Bitcoin itself.
I already implemented this feature (paying with Bitcoin) here at the bottom of this page:
https://feelrace.com/marco/
...so it should be as easy to add this payment option as well in the Love Lock application:
https://you2chain.com

Regarding your comment on clogging the chain, I do understand what you are saying, however this topic is a matter of making use of the Bitcoin protocol and what it offers as intended use.

Original idea. Would be cool to have some kind of visualization of your blockchain. Maybe world map with entries, or access to blockchain database with original "transaction" view.

@RomanPetrush:
Wow !!! Thank you so much for your comment re. visualization of the blockchain with original "transaction" views.
Because exactly this is already implemented, see here:
https://you2chain.com/?then=thB

When you click on a "block" you will jump right into the blockchain via a Block Explorer.

Ehm, as long as the service is paying sufficient fees I don't see what the problem is. Just because the block size is a joke doesn't mean we should discourage people from using it if they want to pay up for the fees.

I expect way more services to leverage Bitcoin's security to have data stored in its ledger for ever. I think it's great that there is this form of demand. It will stimulate more use cases than just speculation and value movements.

I do however agree that Bitcoin as payment option is a must. It's pretty odd when something is leveraging Bitcoin's ledger but not accept it as form of payment.

I agree as well. We're having a good discussion here.
I will implement the Bitcoin payment as a further option here at https://you2chain.com
asap and will return to you when I am done.

i find it absurd that you don't even have bitcoin payment and you want to "add" it alongside other options. in my opinion you should only have bitcoin payment and nothing else! simply because someone who doesn't have bitcoin, doesn't know what bitcoin is and wouldn't care about its blockchain and what OP_Return stuff they are going to put in it. things like this only work for bitcoin enthusiasts.

apart from that i do believe that OP_Retrun should not even exist in bitcoin and should not be used for these things because bitcoin blockchain is a public ledger for storing transaction (money transfer) history not random data.

in any case here is some feedback:
- the price seems high to me! 8.90 Euro for just creating a transaction that can cost as low as 1 cent!
- the button to go to next page has a triangle which suggests clicking them would open some sort of drop down not go to next page!
- to agree with disclaimer there is a "button" saying "No, I do not agree" which user has to click so basically he has to click "I don't agree" to agree. it doesn't make sense, change it to 2 buttons each button doing exactly what its text says or a radiobox.

Hey guys, thank you very much for all your valuable inputs.
The main recommendation from you all was that (besides the traditional payment options) the *Bitcoin* payment option is a must. So accordingly, I modified the application:

A) The Bitcoin payment option was now developed fully from scratch (and I think it is quite cool and convenient to use).

B) The Bitcoin payment option does *not* use any third-party interfaces or services, like e.g. Bitpay etc.

The new Love Lock application can be found here:
https://you2chain.com

Please let me know what you think, especially regarding the *workflow* of the online Bitcoin payment option. Thank you.

Interesting idea, now i have motivation to how to make Bitcoin transaction with OP_RETURN to save 8.90 EUR even though it will be very niche service.

Few opinion/feedback :
- Improve your website appearance, at least use CSS library which don't require you to change HTML code at all, such as https://watercss.netlify.com/ (https://watercss.netlify.com/)
- 8.90 EUR simply too expensive, i'd rather do it manually
- You could expand the idea to store another information, just make sure you prepare the template for user
- You might want consider altcoin such ETH where you could store more complex/longer information

Having a set of templates is a good choice for customers to pick, I hope you can add more Crypto as payments I don't like to see paypal for paying something that is Cryp[to related they don't go together and many of us here stopped using Paypal.
