It's possible to submit the order form at https://www.bitspend.net/order.html https://www.bitspend.net/order.html and receive a success message without completing any of the fields. No validation - a big bug?

It's an MVP. No point in writing all that validation code just yet - most people understand that you actually have to fill the fields in.

  I think an MVP of anything related to finances (be it cash, card, or bitcoin) should include SSL and validation. I see there's SSL. In any case, adding simple form validation there would have taken <10 minutes with a decent library (especially given that they're already "using" jQuery - though perhaps not actually "using"; it seems that they've taken the Bootstrap example HTML wholesale, and include a bunch of other Bootstrap jQuery plugins that they're not using - or have at least included it). Apparently their MVP includes a "secure warehouse"... but not ten minutes of Javascript? There are many things that can be excused under the umbrella of "... but MVP!". This site is asking people to place their trust in an anonymous entity to the sum of several hundred dollars - I say anonymous because there is ZERO contact information on the site, no address, email (well, other than for Media Requests), or anything. Speaking of anonymity, there are also no corporate registration records for "Bitspend LLC" in Florida (where the domain is registered), or the US, for that matter. MVP or not, this site doesn't scream "credibility".

    We love the constructive criticism, however we would like to ask that you stick to facts when claiming something: "Speaking of anonymity, there are also no corporate registration records for "Bitspend LLC" in Florida " If you did a simple business title search on the FL sunbiz site, you would find Bitspend LLC listed, right at the top :) As far as your other concerns, we are able to admit that where the site is at this exact moment is not where it should be. We promise to have it up to your standards by end of week!!

      I'm willing to stand corrected. I had done a Dun & Bradstreet corporate registration search. Duly noted!

  If you're in the trust industry then validation goes a long way. I'd put that in the minimal column.
