One question. Why do you think we need peer to peer invoices and what inefficiencies in the market is it trying to solve?

Another thing I want to know is what kind of businesses or services do you think Blockonomics will be of most use?

Finally is your code open source? I would like to see your Github if it is.

Many people need to create invoices and accept payments. We believe that it is easier for users to generate their own invoices and accept payments directly instead of having to go through middlemen.

Our services can be used by many people. Typical users can use our wallet watcher to track their bitcoins; businesses can use our eCommerce plugins on their website to accept direct bitcoin payments; freelancers can create free invoices to get paid.

Some of our code is available on GitHub.

Great work dev.
For merchant tool, how much wallet service which support your merchant tool? Can I use electrum?

Yes! In fact, we would strongly recommend using electrum. We support any wallet to receive payments, but we would strongly suggest one that supports xpub (Extended Public Key).

That's great.

But I think that it has already been done before. There are a lot of freelance bitcoin sites or job sites that offer to accept bitcoin out there. There are also escrow sites that also offer a "peer to peer invoicing solution".

However, I like the tool to generate a receipt on each transaction. I don't think that has been done before.
Wallet watcher? Well if you use Coinbase or Coinjar, you've already got that function inbuilt.

A fee wizard? Already done as well.

But I like the idea of putting all of these things into one functional site. It should be interesting.

Good luck with your project!

Our invoice service isn't limited to freelancers; anyone with a bitcoin address can generate a professional, great-looking invoice to receive payments.

Our wallet watcher service also enables users to receive email notifications on their transactions without having to keep their private keys with any third party.

We are also launching a new feature soon! It will allow you to send bitcoins via email. We believe that this is a new service which hasn't been done before; recipients don't need to have an account with us to receive bitcoins!
