bitcoin: URI and/or bitcoin-request MIME type for click-to-pay #14

   gavinandresen commented at 2:58 pm on December 22, 2010: contributor

   There are several threads on the bitcoin forums proposing bitcoin: URI schemes and a bitcoin-request MIME type. Functionality desired is:

   • Click a link on a website
   • bitcoin client launches, shows a dialog box with payment details that you then approve to send payment.

   Security is obviously a huge issue here; will have to be careful that none of the tricks hackers use to defraud users will work (e.g. clickjacking, HTTP man-in-the-middle rewriting of bitcoin addresses…).

   You might want to include various options.

   I’ve started working on a Firefox addon for that. This is why I opened #160

   @TheBlueMatt BIP21 compatible URI’s are now supported; can this issue be closed ?

   Should this be working with Bitcoin-qt 0.6? Implemented URIscheme on a webpage but nothing happens so far. Re-open? Or is #982 the follow-up. Missing in the info.plist (mac).

   Disabled for on Windows due to a bug in boost::interprocess. Never implemented on Mac.

    ok. should I open a feature request for this on the mac? imo, important functionality to make bitcoin a popular alternative to other services.
