When you buy something on eBay or Amazon, you pay the seller, he ships the product and upload a tracking number.
If you haven't received the item, you can call eBay or Amazon and, basically, what happens is that if they have a tracking number that shows that the item has been delivered, then it is ok, otherwise eBay or Amazon reverses the transaction and you get your money back.
Is that possible with bitcoin? What if I buy a boat online for 2 bitcoins and I never receive it? Is bitcoin able to solve this problem?
Thanks
Bitcoin is very possible to apply in transact using online shopping as above, especially now that bitcoin has started using lightning network technology. This technology, as well as an escrow service wherein one network, can be used for various transactions of the users. This technology is also a solution to the cost and slowness of bitcoin transactions so far using single block. This technology can be applied as long as an online shopping is receiving payment using bitcoin.
