As someone who works in the cryptocurrency industry, it's refreshing to see someone dedicated to building something actually useful instead of another depressingly transparent get-rich-quick P&D scam. I will download and try OB this week.
- tylersmith 9y agoThanks for the kind words! I hope you enjoy using it.
- SamPatt 9y agoGlad to hear it, please let us know how it goes. There's a feedback button built right into the client so it's very easy to let us hear your feedback!
- lovemenot 9y agoSame here. I created a few service listings this weekend. I really like the technology (can I use the word "platform" here?) and the vision. I wonder about the business side though. Vendors need many buyers and vice versa, yet download and installation presents significant friction. For OB, what might become a kernel of serious market activity as collectibles apparently was for eBay in their early days? I believe you are targeting Crypto trading, right?

- tylersmith 9y agoWell the submitted blog post is old and predates our curation token plans so it's not really weird. A token will never be required to use the protocol. Even if we tried to make it work that way we'd be forked because it's fundamentally unnecessary for the base protocol.
