Pics of the updates coming to the purchase workflow in Blockmarket beta3, still hashin out the final details (heh, get it?!) but as you can see, trying to make it much more seamless with the QT wallet:
Had a quick look at your purchase flows.
Users has to wait 2 times. How long will this take ?
I mean if I want to do my everyday shopping, I don't want to wait while adding an item to my shopping cart. Amazon has its one click buy, which is successful because there is no waiting time. I mean, the longer the purchasing process takes, the more likely you are to lose customers on their way till the final step.
Much easier flow:
1 - Click buy.
2 - prompt(Do you really want to spend 100 Sys on Item?) Confirm | Cancel
3 - // do the rest in the background
// In the unlikely case that anything went wrong, send a notification to the user, telling him what went wrong.
=> no waiting time. Greater ease for any customer.
..
about that security, would it be possible to obtain a merchants private key by placing an order at that merchant and monitoring what happens in your (hacked or self written) browser?
then if the private key is obtained other peoples orders can be decrypted... please correct me if im wrong.
