I'd prefer soemthing more direct than a handler for a specific website. I've been in BitCoin for 4 years. Something super-simple, like the ability to upload a batch of public address and use them up as needed. I'll generate more whent he list gets short and upload them. My private keys can stay in cold storage and I (and the app) can check the transactions via blockchain.info's api. I don't want some automated convert to cash and deposit it crap... I keep my BTC, I never cash out. It's way more valuable than fake government dollars... By this method, you can transfer the BTC to whatever exchange you feel like instead of being locked into a pseudo-exchange like Coinbase, or a do-nothing middle-man like BitPay. I could fire it off to e-btc, or bitstamp, or just keep it where it is... Making it fancier than it needs to be only creates needless restrictions on what I do with my BTC. I don't want it automatically landing in a place where it can be seized. Make a stand alone method that doesn't integrate with anyone. The whole point of BitCoin is to be your own bank, not end up stuck with someone, paying fees, facing the possibility of your BTC being seized just like any other kind of money. Defeats the whole damn point...
