-====== Motivation ====== +
-  : //The payment protocol augments the bitcoin: uri scheme with an additional "​payment"​ parameter that specifies a URL where a payment request can be downloaded. This creates long URIs that, when rendered as a QR code, have a high information density. Dense QR codes can be difficult to scan resulting in a more frustrating user experience. The goal is to create a standard that would allow QR scanning wallets to use less dense QR codes. It also makes general purpose QR code scanners more usable with bitcoin accepting websites.//+
