It's been a while since I have posted here, but I have been busy in the last year, and last year I tried a few times to auction off some German property here with a little Lukewarm reception, mainly down to trust issues and people not being able to wrap their head around a real world purchase involving lawyers etc.

I'm wondering; in the last year what has changed in the Bitcoin community? With all the new regulations that have been coming into play and more mainstream adoption, is there a chance that now Bitcoiners are starting to be more open to 'normal' transactions with Bitcoin and not so paranoid about them?

I have been getting tired of Ebay and am trying to find an alternative solution. My biggest problem with Ebay is its prohibiton of linking auctions to social media pages. We are allowed to have the auction shared on facebook- great- but NOT allowed to link to our company Facebook page. I think that creates a very unfair situation in this world, because we have great ratings and interaction on our Facebook page, which would lead to customer trust on ebay and then higher bids, but they wont allow it, so the bids come in at unreasonable amounts and therefore no one wants us to auction properties on ebay. Big Catch 22.

Obviously here, it is more of a social network in itself; Last year I did not have the establishment of the company or so many reviews. Im thinking It's time to give BTC auction a shot again.

Would appreciate some comments, suggestions and guidelines I should lay out before trying it again.

Thanks for the input!

Hi, you should give BidBit.co a try. There are no crazy rules when it comes to social media and you can post real estate or what ever you like.

you can visit them at www.BidBit.co


Good luck!
