Hello,

I just went throw Payment Request API documentation and I have some questions about it.

Are you planning to add different cryptocurrencies, for example, Bitcoin as Standardized Payment Method? Cryptocurrencies don’t have any central website or something like this, so we can’t use URL-based payment method identifier for it.
How will Payment Request  API will handle situation when merchant want to provide different price for each payment method? 

Thank you for your time.
