Marketplace UpdateUnfortunately after delaying the launch, it took a lot longer to resolve the problem I found. Which turned into many hours of work, then the api server decided to crap out, which meant I could not progress until it was sorted first, that was out of my hands, because it was a hardware issue the host had to fix. That only happened today!
I didn't post due to comments on previous delays where I updated everyone and had comments about me making excuses. So why bother when likely not believed anyway!
AS I've posted previously everything I've said has been true, in terms of what I've done/working on and what I release. Although the MP has taken far longer than I originally expected or hoped...But finally it's now ready in part to post the marketplace site link. It still has dummy products listed, one test product (set at $0.10) IF anyone feels like doing a live sale. I've also temporary disabled BTC payments, and 1-2 other elements, which will be enabled next week.
Why? I'm going to a family members funeral on Thurs and traveling tomorrow. So after that, over the weekend I'll enable BTC payments and also add the first product (owned by the MP) for sale from Monday (8th) onwards. And if everything is ok will add the second product (also owned by the MP) later in the week.
- For authors it has a flat 1% on sales, all products need to be approved prior to being listed for sale.
- I still need to add various content, such as terms of service, copyright etc. The MP is intended only
for products authors created or own the rights to sell, hence why all products are to be approved first.
I'll be posting further details soon, explaining future plans and ideas I have. Also about the profit share of the MP revenue with KTK holders.
I've been thinking what other coins that can be added, ones that already have an api because it means they can be added much quicker than setting up an online wallet/api (although this will still be happening). They need to have the functions to generate new addresses for each customer, and send multiple payments at once.
I found Dogecoin and Litecoin both have api's and the functions required to integrate with the marketplace, they also has other factors that make them candidates for adding to the MP. If anyone know of other coins that have an api, please post or pm me.
