This made me remember about the Web Payments Working Group of W3C, https://www.w3.org/Payments/WG/ , of which Decker, Christian of Blockstream is a member: https://www.w3.org/2000/09/dbwg/details?group=83744\u0026public=1\n\nMy understanding is that Christian aims to make Bitcoin payments (and possibly Lightning invoice payments?) payable over Web payment protocols that W3C group is working on.\n\nPossibly the Web Payments Working Group may provide better perspective on various other payment use cases as well as their subtleties, which can help inform your considerations in your proposed BOLT12.\n\nRegards,\nZmnSCPxj\n\n\n​Sent with ProtonMail Secure Email.​\n\n‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐\n\nOn March 8, 2018 11:19 PM, Corné Plooy via Lightning-dev \u003clightning-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org\u003e wrote:\n\n\u003e Hi,\n\u003e \n\u003e I was thinking of how to use Lightning for various types of payments,\n\u003e \n\u003e and I think it's currently fine for customer/(web)shop type\n\u003e \n\u003e interactions, but it seems a bit inconvenient for other use cases, e.g.\n\u003e \n\u003e salary payments or direct pay-out of cryptocurrency bought on an\n\u003e \n\u003e exchange. I came up with an idea that addresses some of these issues and\n\u003e \n\u003e more (e.g. payee anonymity) by having a direct line of communication\n\u003e \n\u003e between payer and payee instead of BOLT11-style interaction. It's still\n\u003e \n\u003e a bit half-baked, with many details not worked out yet, but you can read\n\u003e \n\u003e it here, and see if you like where this is going:\n\u003e \n\u003e https://github.com/bitonic-cjp/lightning-rfc/blob/payment-protocol/12-payment-protocol.md\n\u003e \n\u003e In true permissionless fashion, I have been so bolD to register bolT #12\n\u003e \n\u003e for my idea.\n\u003e \n\u003e Please let me know what you think.\n\u003e \n\u003e kind regards,\n\u003e \n\u003e CJP\n\u003e \n\u003e Lightning-dev mailing list\n\u003e \n\u003e Lightning-dev at lists.linuxfoundation.org\n\u003e \n\u003e https://lists.linuxfoundation.org/mailman/listinfo/lightning-dev"}
