Title: Android app idea: Buy Bitcoin as in-app purchase Post by: ZuonKing on July 25, 2013, 12:42:55 PM I'm searching for an android app for Bitcoin (a bitcoin wallet?) with the ability to buy Bitcoin as in-app purchase using the Google Play credit.
This forum is full of genial programmers thus if a similar app don't exist I'm sure there is a reason. Do you know something about this? Thank you Zuon King Title: Re: Android app idea: Buy Bitcoin as in-app purchase Post by: Mike Hearn on July 25, 2013, 12:58:45 PM Couple of problems:

Even if it got accepted into the store your app would get shut down quickly. 1) 30% overhead! 2) The transactions are often backed by credit cards, so there is a long list of things that aren't allowed.
