We would like to invite you to a beta test of a new marketplace: Agora.
It is sad to see that there are so many scammers around that that create marketplaces with the purpose of stealing the money. We think that besides the obvious damage they undermine the trust the community has for the technology stack itself (Tor+Bitcoin+Secure marketplace), creating this idea that it is somehow impossible to operate a stable marketplace for a long time.
Additionally we are big fans of the original Silk Road freedom-based libertarian policy and looking around the other markets that have reincarnated from the ashes of the giant, it seems that few have that particular purpose in mind. We shall try to change that.
The marketplace is about 90% feature-complete and needs real life usage to configure the servers to the load as well as finish the functionality that is most needed.
As such, the number of users that can register at this point is limited, since the load is very hard to predict.
However we encourage you to try it out and help us to get it fully functional. (All the current functions work, but many more features are needed.)
The marketplace is going to employ a referral program: if you refer to another vendor and he registers with your link, you are going to receive 20% of fees we collect from that vendor for every order he makes, with no time restrictions. For the normal users that you refer to the service, you are going to receive 10% of the fee we collect from their EVERY order placed with ANY other vendor. This is partly the reason it might pay up to register early: you can have most referrals and make a lot of money in the end.
Being referred does not imply any losses for the referred users or vendors. Your share is coming from our own fees which would be collected in any case.
Basically we want the community to make money as well as us, thus creating a plethora of users who are actually interested in making the service the best it can be, by providing feedback.
The standard fee taken on each order (and from which the referral percentages are calculated) is 4%.
To become a vendor we require a 0.2 BTC deposit which is held by the service and is used in case you will try to scam users. The deposit shall be increased in the future.
