Hello Everyone!,
I'll try to share as much as I can about this project, without giving too much away.
Bitpay would definitely be euphoric.. if say.. eBay decided to accept Bitcoin and use THEM to receive payments while they're at it- truth is that's never going to happen. Sad truth is eBay won't accept Bitcoin, and if it ever had to, it will make it's own 'Bitpay'. The reason I say this, is to give you an idea of how much support this project would get from the Bitcoin community (which is now too large to be called a community), and from the larger Bitcoin companies as well as individual investors.
The subject says it all, a Bitcoin eBay- (Selling your stuff for BTC and getting Bitcoin for the stuff you've posted for sale).
Function: You like something, you click it- you then send your BTC to the ITEM'S BTC address, this address will then forward the BTC to the sellers website address. In order for a seller to sell an item it would be easy as well, however, the website of course will require more data from the seller since there needs to be a seller trust, which will be through the simple seller trust process/steps.
I think you guys get the basic idea, and please understand the project is in its conceptual stages- we still have a lot of brain-storming going on.
I'm an investor, and a project manager and I'm lucky enough to understand a thing or two about marketing. I'm currently working with a team of 2 people.. and I'm looking here for some help and support- knowing that this is where a lot of the big names started in the Bitcoin world.
PM me if you're interested in talking business, whether you're a programmer, a designer or anyone that could think they can help in anyway.
Also, if you have some questions but aren't interested in getting involved, I'd also would love to hear what you have in mind regarding this.
Thank you very much!
