Bitcoin client

[Stemby]

Please integrate a complete Bitcoin client (with a full wallet), in order to avoid 2 bitcoin transactions on the blockchain (with 2 fees) for every OB transaction.

Thanks!

Thanks for the suggestion. Some points:

1. A full Bitcoin node is never gonna happen. It is antithetical to the goal of creating a mass consumer app.
2. A Bitcoin wallet is on our roadmap.

The two Bitcoin transactions you may be referring to that take place in a direct transaction facilitate Vendors to make easy refunds before they have shipped. Until we have a wallet in application, this two step process helps more than it hurts.
