It would be useful if they had some actual freelancers on their site, instead all i see is a couple of bounty hunters who are willing to write "articles".
Compared to fiverr, they're nothing.

The site also seems extremely dead with all feedback listed from months ago.
(Most recent project ask was a month ago..)
And the projects that have bids on them, are all from "devs" with 0 feedback.. I don't know, comapared to fiver or seoclerk, i wouldn't really feel comfortable using their site, or the supposed devs that all have 0 reviews... (Especially when i can get someone who's a little bit more reputed and probably cheaper from one of the two competitors mentioned above.

Obviously, you can't compare a brand new crypto related freelancing service to such giants. Fiverr launched in 2010. and SEOclerk is an old company as well. SEOclerk still not like Fiverr. and this service is very new. so don't expect it to be like them. its owners need to work very hard to make it successful. even XBTfreelancer which is a very successful crypto freelancing platform is not close to Fiverr in term of available jobs and opportunities.

I agree. Like a lot of new platforms, the issue is completely circular.
Need experience and activity to get customers, and need customers to get activity and experience. ;)

I wonder if there is any way to have a service like this act as a "proxy" of sorts. If a project does not get any decent bids after X days, maybe the job gets reposted on upwork, or somewhere. The site can act like a fee taking middleman, and that way, until the site gets active volume, there would still be interest in using the platform.

Users could still pay for a job in bitcoin, the platform just reposts, and converts the bitcoin to fiat.

There can be many ways to achieve that. Promotions and Advertisement could be helpful. There's a similar site called microlancer.io which had gone through many promotions and advertisement recently. Creating and finding jobs there are simpler. Though they were not ready for a large traffic and experienced some problems with maintaining jobs.

It would also be useful if they had any description in their homepage about hold escrows between employers and freelancers.
This missing information maybe the reason that discourage users to try the new platform.
Anyway, IMO someone have to vouch for the platform before i can use it. UPwork is still my favorite one.
