Feature Request: Request payment from other ships #47

Open ridoy opened 2 years ago

Problem Right now you can only send money through btc-wallet. It would be nice if one ship could request payment from another.

Proposed Solution A "request" tab in btc-wallet by which one ship can request an amount from another ship (given its public address).

Maybe a notification appears in Landscape when you get such a request.

It would be really cool if these requests could be embedded in a DM. Similar to the way Apple Pay is integrated into iMessage.

Additional context A friend and I are making a chat bot. The bot has a set of paid features. It would be really convenient if the bot could send a payment request in chat to upgrade to the paid features.

I imagine other chat bots built in the future would benefit from this feature too.
