Open Bazaar is going to be so great once the upgrades are done that makes use of the Inter Planetary File System for storing the data for your online shop.  Yes, that means you can turn off your computer, no need for leaving it on just to keep your store online 24 hours a day/7 days a week.

The cool thing about IPFS is that your privacy is protected just like you would be when using Tor. Does anyone have any idea how many users there are using OB?

i have said it the first time i saw openbazaar and i say it again, i believe it is a very cool project that can become very successful and also help adoption of bitcoin a lot.

but to get there it needs to become a lot more newbie/user friendly than what it is right now to be able to compete with something like ebay for instance. until then not much.

Wow let's spread the word in the others..
Many event happen yehey .. The bitcoin price is affected to rise?
For sure it will rise and it will be a good idea to spread the good news so as to instill confidence in the mind of new bitcoin users and even those doubting Thomases out there wishing to see the downfall of bitcoin. A welcome idea of course. Price of bitcoin will definitely get boosting support from this.

Im looking forward for that embedded mining, i think that it is very innovative. I just hope that it would be availabe in our country  and there is no need for me to purchase it outside

If it becomes very successful, it will eventually get to all countries, that is how entrepreneurship works.

I am looking forward to it as well.


I really just hope so.  Who are currently doing this by now tho? Are they posting the possible features of this project? Or some sort of helpful informations like price, or the hardware specifications?

It's 21 INC, but i havent heard anything concrete about it yet, it was just an announcement, but nothing concrete information provided. I guess it's still theoretical, or in research.

I guess it will take a few more years until it comes out, creating microchips is not easy.

Why is the site not working onsite but we have to download the software to do the shopping , as i dont want my computer to get loaded with lot of softwares.
which site you are asking about? if you are asking about Openbazaar then sorry but it is true. you need to download the app to use the features and for doing shopping.
Openbazaar is an desktop app and you can't create your shop at the website. I think this is because the project is very large and making one site may not good for this. but the fact is Openbazaar is a perfect source.

You mean openbazaar?

Do you realize it's P2P, that means that you host the server on your PC, and you are the client too.

Now you can probably skip the server hosting later on once dedicated hosters appear, but for now this is how it works.

I have mixed feelings about Zcoin/Zcash, it is technically an altcoin and will be launched as such.

However the technology/protocol might be useful and might inspire people to improve privacy in cryptocurrencies.

However I have read that monero offers better privacy. I am not sure, can somebody technical explain the PRO/CONS between Zcash VS Monero?

I've read quite a few articles on the matter, and IMO, if you were to read one, I would suggest you read this article.

If you feel inclined and wanted to read a bit further on the matter here are some other good posts I've come across on the matter:

https://blog.okturtles.com/2016/03/the-zcash-catch/

http://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/83/how-does-monero-privacy-and-security-compare-to-zcash/99#99

Figured it's best to get your information straight from the source rather than have me try to give you my interpretations.  Nonetheless, I do agree that it is useful that there has been a lot of hype surrounding zcash; mainly because of the fact it gets people understand the importance of privacy/fungibility in cryptos.

Well, its not what i was thinking it is, i am removing it from this list, i thought it was better designed, but looks like it has a lot of theoretical and practical flaws.

Even though I absolutely love the idea of bitsquare and getting away from exchanges that is MASSIVELY profitable for a few people that can exit any time they feel like it; I just can't seem to enjoy looking at the order books on there.  I went ahead and installed it, and after looking around a bit, it just seemed to give me a headache looking at the pricing for a single market (i.e. 'buy bitcoin') and then doing the vice versa when you look at the other corresponding market (i.e. 'sell bitcoin'). I feel like it would be a lot better to keep the prices in "Altcoin"/BTC or USD/BTC, etc. and always compare to Bitcoin.

Is that just me?  Or is any one else getting agitated with that? I know it's a small, very nit-picky detail... but it just gets on my nerves.  Still plan on trying it out sooner or later though.

Very slow progress, damn these projects take so long to come out and are hardly updated.

I wish more programmers would go out there and help these developers. If you are a programmer contact the project's maintainers and tel; them you want to volunteer to help.

In most cases there project are done by 1-2 people, so people go out and help!
