merchant client updateable transactions (micropayment channels).
say we want to trade 1 DOGE for 1 BTC
tx fee = 0.001 BTC (or whatever)
we incrementally trade 0.001 BTC at a time until the trade is complete.
important is that increment <= tx fee.
you cannot scam this way.
I guess with an exchange it would be super slow making increments of
$0.01 at a time so maybe wouldn't work. But for digital assets or any
service this is ideal.
