The Bitpay alternative: Bitcoin Widget
Cryptocurrencies are breaking the news, finally we have a technology that can challenge the current economic status quo, this is certainly a change for better in the world, but yet a lot is to be done, for example:
- Current bitcoin payment services (say, Bitpay) still work like a traditional payment services (say, Paypal), when there is no longer a need for such bureaucracy.
Cryptocurrencies technologies don't these account creation, and identity verification, the "security measures" are now obsolete, and exactly the kind of bureaucracy cryptocurrencies are here to demolish.
Existing economic institutions need to evolve or step aside.

- Receive Bitcoin payments online.
- Get the funds directly to your wallet.
- Deliver your product or service without delay.
- All automatically and privately.
