I guess it could work that way:
Buyer sends BTC to escrow (and informs him and you about his IOTA address).
You send the IOTA to the buyers IOTA address.
You send the tx id of the transaction of the IOTA transfer (using a tangle explorer) to the escrow as proof.
The escrow sends you the BTC.
This could work great, unless there's something I'm missing. What do you guys think?

Regarding speculation: I see a bigger market cap for IOTA than ETH (there's possibility even to surpass BTC), due to its bigger vision. I am still surprised from what I read in the bitcoinist article. Great times ahead
Since CfB has ended escrow any deals will presumably have to be based on trust
To mitigate trust requirements Im offering 4 gentleman's agreements to buy small quantities to be sent to you after you provide an IOTA address following genesis (which looks as tho it'll be very soon).
PM me or reply in-thread for greater transparency.
Please people, don't trade without escrow. Its super simple, almost everyone use it and it secures your investment. Run away from people who say the only way to do it is based on trust. There are many other escrows available.
Speaking for myself I can be trusted. I'm not gonna screw people over (or risk a vendetta) for a couple BTC
I am not using an escrow since I am not comfortable giving my IOTA password to anybody
If there is a way to create escrow without revealing my IOTA password Im all ears.
