Interesting, I like the idea that you can be in a group chat with traders and negotiate that way instead of just looking at the orderbooks on an exchange or get bad rates on localbitcoins.

It seems like you guys have copied the Weixin layout though? Correct me if i'm wrong.

Seems like a weird mix between Wechat and QQ.
We, of course, will take Weixin (WeChat) into consideration when we design Bixin, but I don't think it's a cheap imitation. In fact, all mainstream IM apps look almost the same.

Nice App.Who are the people behind this App?Escrow is usually a highly trusted individual or entity, why should we trust a new app with our bitcoin?

Nah, not a new company. Bixin, formerly known as HaoBTC, is founded in 2014. Bixin is the largest Bitcoin wallet in China, and Bixin Pool is one of the top ten mining pools.
I knew I recognized the name before.
So do you need to have a bixin/haobtc account to use this and is the app available on android and on a desktop platform and if not will it ever be?
Yes, you need to have a Bixin account to use it. And it is available on both ios and android. Download Bixin: https://im.bixin.com

I think this would be good to offer services that needed in crypto world. Trust is a must in bitcoin exchange, and escrow have to attend with modern ways (interface). This app will be answer it.
By the way is it usable for global users or it's​ just for Chinese? I am sorry, no offence because I see the app display using Chinese alphabet. Is there any other languages available?

It's in both Chinese and English.

From now on, Escrow payment of the Bixin APP is available.
Bixin, as a third party, will escrow the property safety of both parties.

Q: What is the Escrow payment?
A: It’s a one-on-one payment function with escrow.
The sender will send his bitcoin(s) after they initiate a payment request.
After the success of the exchange, or after 14 days, Bixin will send those bitcoin(s) to the receiver.

Q: Why do you need Escrow payment?
A: Escrow payment solves the problem of trust for both parties to an exchange.
Specifically, you can use this feature to buy or sell Bitcoin, or exchange Bitcoin for goods and services with others.

Q: What is the minimum ceiling for a single Escrow payment?
A: The minimum amount for a single Escrow payment is 100Bits (0.0001BTC).
There is no upper limit for Escrow payments.

Q: Is there a fee for Escrow payment?
A: Within three months, there is no fee charged for an Escrow payment.
The announcement on future Escrow fee rate adjustment shall prevail any payments.
