Frictionless (micro)payments. Paying for access to premium content on the Web should be as easy as buying a song on iTunes. People will pay for stuff if it's super-easy.

It could save newspapers. It could change the Web from an advertiser-oriented medium (like TV) to a user-oriented medium (like iPod/iPad apps).

I've wanted to build a cross-browser BitCoin plugin for some time now, but the impossibility of it ever running on iOS keeps me from starting. Would such a plugin satisfy your needs?
