So when my friends come over to my apartment they always demand that I turn the heat up. What if they could send bitcoins to an address and that turned my heat up? I wouldn't mind cause they were paying micropayments per 10mins that the heat is above a certain degree? Is this even possible or socially acceptable?

Get a gun. They wont come back.

They "demand"? I would kick them out.

They "ask nicely"? I would be a gracious host and attempt to make them comfortable.

LMAO you know how dudes are LMAO

Ahh... so this involves "dudes".

In that case, I would tell them that as long as they keep me drunk the heat can stay on. As soon as I start to sober up, the heat goes off. Wink

The revolution will be monetized!

I wonder how hard it would be to make an automated bitcoin switch?
You would want code that could check the blockchain at an address and fetch the balance. If the balance changes, the new deposit (float) could be used as input to turn a knob on a physical device. The larger the deposit the greater the degree of turn. It could then control a thermostat or a fan or whatever.

I once knew a guy that sold bowls of cereal to his friends. Like $2 a bowl. Anything is social acceptable.
