Especially for Hivefest
As I hinted at yesterday I have a brand new way of using v4v.app. And it turns out that, somewhat like buses, you wait ages for an app to easily let you receive any payment in Hive and then two come along at once.
Just today Hive @keychain released Keychain Store.
My app does essentially the same as that but with two key differences.
- It's a "Progressive Web App" which means it runs on your phone and a desktop without installation.
- v4v.app accepts payments as Hive, HBD or Lightning.
- Add it to your home screen on your phone: it will remember your Hive name.
The basic flow:
- fill in your Hive account name where you want to receive payment (you don't need to log in).
- fill in the amount you want in Hive or HBD.
- Press the Pay button.
- A screen with a QR code pops up, if the payer has Hive Keychain installed on their phone, they can scan that and it will open and offer them the transaction to approve.
- There's a selector to chose Lighting and get a different QR code that all Lightning wallets (like Wallet of Satoshi, Muun, Breez and others) can pay.
You'll see a green tick when payment is received.
Hive transfers are completely free.
Lightning has a small fee (which is shown and paid by the payer, if you ask for 10 HBD, you'll get 10 HBD and Lightning users will pay approx 19c in fees right now.
No Log In No Keys
Remember there are no keys or login on v4v.app itself. Payments are made via the keys stored on the payer's Hive Keychain app. Payment of Hive doesn't go through v4v.app, everything happens on Hive's blockchain signed by keys held elsewhere.

Translation Help!
The app has a Spanish version but it has fallen behind, if you feel you can help with translation to Spanish or any other language, you can get instructions on using Crowdin to do that here!
Value for Value
For the last few months while building @v4vapp I was generously supported by the DHF. Going forward I have a much more modest support which covers direct server costs and a little of my time.
If you appreciate the work I do on and around Hive, you can express this directly: upvoting posts on Hive is great. Also consider a direct donation (there's a Tip button on Hive or a Lightning Address) on all my posts.

Any update on the efforts to decentralize V4V app?
It's slowly progressing in the background. I'm having to re-write and clean up a lot of back end code.
Wow Brian, this is extremely useful! Being able to accept BTC payments into HIVE & HBD thru v4v with no KYC involved and enabling a PoS system for P2P commerce is a huge step in enabling Hive Commerce!!
Upvoted, reblogged, and retweeted. Gotta help get the word out about this. Well Done! #InTheMorning
Progressive apps that run on mobile without installation is really awesome and as you have described so beautifully about your app I hope it will be great with Hive.
good information maybe I have to learn this android tool first so that I can understand the ways that this application has Thank you for giving greetings
Looking nice!
Great work Brian. We need more sending and receiving possibilities. Have been using the app and works great.
Keep up the good work.
This is awesome and a good project with nice information to learn from and thanks for sharing.
More good stuff.
Your struggle is really appreciated. People's very easily use this app.
Nice work!
