firstly be online,
secondly use PGP
only accept amount how can you provide (insurance) -this is necessary if you lost your client's pledge (about your fault like giving wrong address)-
and then trust is coming to you step by step.

being an escrow isn't worth the time. some times you get a tip or so, but most of the top escrows do it for fun. not to gain something from it.
Yeah that's the point, I think it's fun lol.
I legitimately think it's fun to be an escrow.
What's fun about it? You're potentially offering to hold on to a lot of other people's money that you have been entrusted with. Will it be fun if something goes wrong or you lose funds somehow? You sound quite naive, especially when you disregarded everybody's advice in here and went and started a thread offering to escrow.
Hey!
Thanks for the reply, do you think I can start escrowing now?
I'm pretty sure no ones gonna trust me with anything over 0.5 BTC, but I gotta start somewhere right?
Do you think people would allow me to do their small deals?

Why would anyone trust you with 0.01? They have no reason to and using you defeats the purpose of escrow. How does anyone know you won't just run off as soon as someone sends you 0.5btc or an amount you like the look of? You don't start off by offering escrow, you build your trust and rep over time by doing trades and being an active member of the community. Most escrows should fall into it naturally and if you're an active and trustworthy member people may ask you to escrow deals regardless but announcing that you want to hold onto people's money with no previous experience and zero rep just looks suspect at the least.
just be trusted and active in the forum..when time goes on you will be getting yout trust increased
anyone can be an escrow, you just gotta convince people you are not a scammer
good luck lol
good luck lol
Are you confident enough in storing your bitcoin that you could hold thousands of dollars for someone else and be 100% confident that there is absolutely nothing that could happen to them? And if they do, do you have the funds to backup anything loss. Its your responsibility to hold those funds, and if anything happens to them while in your care you are 100% liable to reimburse the buyer for the funds.
I have thought about really getting my escrow business off the ground, but that is quite a bit of responsibility and although I have the funds to cover probably more losses than people would trust me with, I still don't want to have to pay out of my own pocket if anything were to happen.

Is there any certain requirements?
Though I'm regular escrow agent here, I'm probably the wrong person to ask. I actually created this account as an alt of my main so I could talk shit to other people without tarnishing the rep of my primary account. That being said, we could always use good and honest escrow people. I think there's maybe like a half dozen "go to" people on this forum, but 24/7 coverage isn't always possible. Sometimes we'll get hammered with multiple escrow requests at once, and often times when we're away from our computers.
My advise is to just participate in the forum community for a while. There's really no hard-set amount of time that would qualify you -- you just have to develop a rep as a good trader, or one who offers tech advice to newbies, or contributes meaningful ideas to improve the protocol
Good night, and good luck.

I want to get trust, but I can't get trust if noone trusts me that i'm trustworthy. I swear noone even trusts me $10 :/.
start doing some trade and selling some stuff, go first if necessary, they will leave a feedback anyway, or use an escrow at first
i don't see the problem to be honest, i started in the same way, zero trust at first(we all started with zero trust btw...) by selling altcoin, then i sold some hardware and i gained my little trust
you can do the same, and it is pretty easy
you are basically telling him to buy rep, you should only trade or get loans if you really need them not to build trust to later be an escrow, thats not good advice at all.
not it isn't, i'm just telling him to gain trust, in the only way you can gain them, by tradind or selling stuff, this isn't buying rep at all, buying good reputation is in the form of extorsion, or dealin with the same guy over and over again
Yes you are telling him to buy trust, if you are doing trades or taking loans for the sole purpose of getting trust you are buying trust, if you need those loans or you need to make the trades thats another story.
the problem is that you can't distinguish between the two, you can not know if he is selling a thing because i need to sell it or because he want to buy trust, so from my point of view if you are simply selling stuff or trade btc with different people you are not buying trust, you are simply earn trust, it does not matter how many times per day you do it

Tomatocage and others have already provided you with the essentials on how to go about becoming an escrow on this forum but apart from that you also need to show the users that theire funds will be safe, some escrows are providing Trezor wallets for safe keeping of user's funds, others are very technically advanced and keep the funds in cold storage and they have their PGP Keys published so the users can know that they're infact the real person. All this is a part of becoming a successful escrow.
I keep my funds on cold storage on an offline pc and I have a pgp key but still I would NEVER offer escrow services because I don't want to hold any body's funds for if some unthinkable reason they're lost, I'd have to pay them from my own funds and I don't want to take any risks. I prefer to sleep peacefully.

Go and take out loans and repay with collateral like other people do, also use a trusted escrow to hold the collateral so maybe you get some green trust from him
