I'm interested to see your mvp, this coming June 11, right?
There are already bunch of projects aiming to revolutionize e-commerce industry.
But I believe, each of you will serve different kinds of customers.
This is based on what you are offering on your platform.
Your products should be competitive enough as compared to existing online shopping websites.
Checking if at least you can compete with amazon or ebay..
Yes it will be available to check out on June 11
It will then be improved upon further until we reach a point where we are satisfied that it ready for release on the main net. We've done a lot of research into the market and have recognised that there are a number of projects aiming to compete in the e-commerce industry but like you said, a lot of them are all serving different purposes, which is good. With our marketplace, we are aiming to attract every day users to the platform to grow cryptocurrency adoption and the use of smart-contracts to protect against fraud etc. As far as we are aware, when our MVP launches it will be the first marketplace which functions and works as an MVP on the blockchain itself, it's fully connected and hooked up.
Great! Waiting for June 11 then.
Are you going to post products as well as their corresponding prices (with shipping fees) that a consumer can buy from your marketplace?
At least, give us idea what you are offering to us. Thanks!
The MVP on Monday will allow everyone to view the marketplace which will contain listings for items with their prices, initially displayed in Ether. These will have descriptions, categories, seller details etc. Shipping fees will not be integrated in the MVP but will be in future versions. Very briefly, the updated versions and the full release will show prices displayed depending on preference and currencies accepted by the seller. At the moment we're closer to resembling eBay, but instead of auctions you buy the items or services outright for a fixed price. Again, the main release will have an auction system integrated into it.
On Monday, users will also be able to use the marketplace to create their own listings and to make purchases by connecting their MetaMask account. No registration is needed at this stage to allow people to quickly test how it functions and to see it in action. Again, our main release will have a registration system in place. Unlike previous MVPs and demos, this all done by interacting with the blockchain so listings, purchases etc are all stored on the blockchain.
We're excited to allow our community to try out the marketplace and to get their feedback which we can use moving forward.
I suggest reading our whitepaper for more information on what it is we're aiming for:
