Title: Is there a bluetooth protocol for bitcoin transactions? Post by: amspir on March 18, 2014, 06:12:23 AM Is there a standard bluetooth protocol for bitcoin transactions?
If not, there probably should be before it becomes a tower of babel. While using QR codes is fine in most situations, it would seem there might be an advantage if the sender could transmit a copy of the signed transaction so that the receiver could broadcast the transaction to the network, in the case where the sender is unconnected to the public network.

I worked on it with Andreas at a hackathon in Berlin last year. What we need to do now is add a security layer and standardise it.
