Calling Merchants and Crypto Currency Integrators, what do you need?

[coinsolidation]

I'm hoping to reach out to the community and begin to gather a list of your priorities and needs.

We aim to ensure the barrier to bitmark adoption is as low as feasibly possible.

Some suggestions may include:

• A wide range of graphical resources and generic buy/pay buttons
• Web based private management interface to keep track of your bitmarks
• Address signing, so you can prove an address you requested payment with belongs to you
• Full support for transaction messages
• API libraries in the language X
• Code examples for language Y
• Plugin's for open source software Z
• Transaction notifications by (email, websockets, http post, other)
• Simple resolution of conflicted transactions and wallet errors

We will also be analysing end user use cases and innovating for those seperately, this thread is specifically targetting those of you who own businesses, worth with merchants, integrate crypto currencies, those of you in the business sector.

Please publicly or privately provide any requirements you can, or examples of existing things in the crypto space which you feel are valuable / make your life easier.

You can contact me via PM, email, in the bitmark thread, or open discussion in this thread.

One of the best things you could do for merchant adoption is to get your coin on coinpayments.net. They already have extensive plugins and modules that make integrating crypto payments extremely easy for online merchants.

That's quite an interesting service. I hadn't seen this site before. That is a very extensive list of currencies there. Fees seem reasonable too.

I was also suitably impressed by the service.

Would it be fair to question if this encourages the use of crypto currencies as a proxy currency? I cannot tell if this is a good thing encouraging adoption and accessibility, or something which encourages the notion of alternative currencies having no long term value. Specifically the part about merchants immediately exchanging to btc, and then potentially fiat.

I use coinpayments with WordPress. The way I handle my marketplaces and auctions is to custom code the currency to display as a crypto (e.g., DRK) and then pay my sellers in that currency. If they want to trade for BTC or fiat it is up to them, but the stores pay out in crypto only. My intention is to encourage the use of crypto as a primary currency.
