π MyZubster Dev Update β Bitcoin Payment Layer
Weβve reached an important new development checkpoint for MyZubster.
The first version of the new Payment Intent Layer has been completed and pushed to a dedicated branch. This layer is designed to become shared economic infrastructure for marketplaces, bounties, services, AI agents, IoT devices, and robotics.
Whatβs now implemented
β’ Payment Intents with lifecycle states, expiration, ownership, and unique references
β’ BTC amounts represented as integer satoshis
β’ Per-intent Bitcoin addresses through an external watch-only boundary
β’ Transaction idempotency and anti-replay protection
β’ Binding between txId, destination, payment reference, and amount
β’ Payment verification before settlement confirmation
β’ Bitcoin payment rail separated from business logic
β’ BTC rail disabled by default
β’ Authenticated HTTP API for creating, retrieving, submitting, and verifying Payment Intents
β’ Ownership enforcement on payment operations
β’ Client-controlled verification data is restricted: destination, payment reference, and settlement amount come from persisted intent data rather than client input
New API
POST /api/payments/intents
GET /api/payments/intents/:intentId
POST /api/payments/intents/:intentId/transactions
POST /api/payments/intents/:intentId/verify
Test status

The work has been separated into two commits:
ecc02f8 β Payment Intents + Bitcoin rail
e43f977 β Authenticated Payment Intent HTTP API
Development branch:
feat/myzubster-btc-payment-layer
Important: no real BTC payments yet
This milestone is about building the architecture safely before activating real infrastructure.
There are no private spending keys in the application, no production Electrum activation, and no real BTC transactions at this stage.
The intended separation is:
Zorgax / AI Agents
β
Marketplace / Bounties / Services
β
MyZubster Economic Layer
Payment Intents Β· Verification Β· Idempotency Β· Anti-Replay
β
Payment Rails
BTC Β· Monero Β· Machine Payments
The next step is branch review and opening the Pull Request before moving toward any real Bitcoin infrastructure integration.
The larger goal remains the same: building MyZubster into an open ecosystem where software, AI agents, devices, robots, and decentralized infrastructure can coordinate not only through information β but eventually through a shared economic layer as well.
