A similar can be implemented with this, too.
Basically, when you want to buy something, instead of sending bitcoin manually, the marketplace generates a payment request for you, with two outputs — merchant (the good price) & marketplace (the fee) + some unique ID in the comment field so that the service can link your payment to the order. It can be a QR code or bitcoin:// link or something.
- smoyer 13y agoI didn't say you couldn't do it but please describe how this part of the marketplace is distributed.
- conductr 13y agoWould a distributed marketplace even charge a fee? I would assume all users would be happily compensated by the existence of the marketplace. The lack of fees also increase margins/decreases price
- pogue 13y agoSomebody has to pay to host the thing, run it and so forth.
- Jonovono 13y agoDistributed system.
- pogue 13y agoQuite right. Still, I think this whole libertarian concept is probably based on the idea of _someone_ making some money somewhere along the lines. :) I assume the mediators would need to be paid, at the bare minimum, probably moderators to filter out junk and spam and whatever other unforeseen circumstances pop up.
