gollark: What is the goal of this system, anyway? Convenient payments with metadata to nameless shops? /pay can do that, interestingly
gollark: Or "pocket computer gets list of items from shop, allows you to select some, you make transaction with desired items as metadata".
gollark: I'm on mobile.
gollark: A different way might be "shop allows you to fill cart and stuff, sends TX request to nearby pocket computer, waits for krist message".
gollark: The way I envisioned it was just "type in metadata on pocket computer, transaction goes to shop, shop dispenses item".
