| - | : //This BIP describes an enhancement to the payment protocol ([[dido:public:ra:xapend.stds:defact:bitcoin:bips:bip_0070| BIP 70]]) that addresses the need for short URLs when scanning from QR codes. It generalizes the specification for the behavior of a payment request URL in a way that allows the client and server to negotiate the content of the response using the HTTP Accept: header field. Specifically, the client can indicate to the server whether it prefers to receive a bitcoin URI or a payment request.// | + | : //This BIP describes an enhancement to the payment protocol ([[dido:public:ra:xapend:xapend.b_stds:defact:bitcoin:bips:bip_0070| BIP 70]]) that addresses the need for short URLs when scanning from QR codes.

| - | : //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.// | + | : //The payment protocol augments the bitcoin: uri scheme with an additional "payment" parameter that specifies a URL where a payment request can be downloaded.
