Coinbase Launches App Store in Push for Developer Integration

By Danny Bradbury, Coindesk.com

Coinbase has launched an app store, showcasing firms that have integrated with its wallet service.

On the firm’s API page, it explains that it allows submissions from applications conducting “all major bitcoin operations”, that exchange bitcoin to local currency, send and request bitcoins via email or bitcoin address, and create bitcoin wallets. It also allows merchant apps, and apps that provide access to raw bitcoin network data. Microtransactions are permitted, too.
