I am developing a "Reading Fee" spec to define an email header that allows the receiver to have money transferred from the sender to the receiver. BTC is an ideal currency, assuming it maintains its usefulness as a medium of exchange, because it requires no clearinghouse.
I also have questions, which I can probably answer on my own with independent study, but which might intrigue someone here and start a discussion or a business and possibly create some jobs. Here they are:
1. Is it possible to enable someone to take bitcoin from your wallet, but also enable them to relinquish that ability in a way that is apparent to you? For my "Reading Fee" spec, the ability would be for a specific amount, but the question is also interesting for "a limited amount" and also "all of it".
2. Is it feasible to create transactions that can be reversed by the spender for a specific amount of time? Wouldn't this serve as a built-in escrow feature?

I can't see the value in point 2. Buyer pays for goods and receives them then reverses the payment, where is the sellers security? No idea about q1 I think you may be in the wrong thread.

Two choices: 1) Give the private key for an address that has the coins. 2) Use the scripting system to do what you want to accomplish.

I'm store owner thats looking to learn more about Bitcoin. I have a small online head shop and I've recently had lots of problems with conventional payment methods (paypal). I hope I'm looking in the right place for an alternative. If anybody has had any experience with selling retail items for Bitcoin hit me up and give me some advice. I've heard about recent changes with Dwolla. TradHill and another isn't accepting dwolla anymore. Is there another compnay like dwolla that they are using? I'm already accepting dwolla on my site but I like the idea of accepting Bitcoin as well.

Hi. I'd like to start a business selling digital copies of video games for bitcoins. I don't have a site but I plan on getting one soon.
I plan on negotiating prices in Bitcoin with buyers for legitimate, permanent copies of Steam games.

Nice forum,
I own a dev co working on multiple bitcoin projects,what kind of products do bitcoin users want to see on the market? Would more people buy bitcoin if it were easier, like with a credit card?
Thanks,

Hey, I'm a freelance programmer and didn't see this topic so I posted in the other topic as well. I just made this already for bitcoin: http://www.lavix.nl/casino/index.php and I'm planning on other casino games as well. I'm not sure if freelance also should be posted here, so I did it anyway Regards, Alemaaltevinden

Hi! I'm a webdeveloper with a lot of time on my hand the next months, and I'd like do build something (a webservice maybe) that the bitcoin community can use. If someone has any ideas, please don't hesitate to contact me The community desperately needs a fully function set of eCommerce plugins for WHMCS and HostBill to get BitCoin usable as a viable currency for buying goods and services. Can you do that?

i am a cakephp developer and working on a bitcoin plugin for my online shop right now the plugin is open source MIT and the first tryouts can be seen here: https://github.com/dereuromark/CakePHP-Payment-Pluginif anyone is interested in joining in or knows PHP/CakePHP, feel free to help making this a solid plugin for webshops. i think it will really help the community as it provides another payment systems for shop owners. the more shops the better for bitcoin there are already plugins for other shop system like OtCommerce, but for pure PHP or CakePHP there is not much at all. the basic idea is that the php script asks the daemon every few minutes about the pending payments. if the payment is received with enough confirmations the callback fires which then sets the order to "paid".
