OpenBazaar Opened , your first impressions ?

[alani123]

Openbazaar's open source delelopment looks like a joke, so bad the people at /r/buttcoin are making fun of it.

For a new project you should not blame them for not being mature on all fronts. Maybe an open source developer wants to improve on this

'Somebody should fork OpenBazaar to create OpenBazaar Classic so the initial euphoria can be sustained.'
LOL

OpenBazaar is a great initiative and project for buying with bitcoin.
Since its a new project we can expect some delays or misconfgurations but that is not to be discouraged them but we can expect full swing overall improvement very soon.

I'm a bit doubtful about the competence of the developers though. I get that it's just the start, but even after coming out of beta, several updates did nothing but worsen problems introduced in previous ones. And they failed at implementing basic checks for stores such as stock updates. Not only that, but they don't seem to be welcoming comunity contributions in their open source development. I hope that if this isn't resolved someone else would be courageous enough to take over with a fork.

The recent work has been with I2P.

Another tool which looks more promising is I2P, something which we’ve begun to investigate more closely. I2P already uses UDP.

This looks promising.

I hate to be a naysayer about I2P, but who the fuck implements network-layer with JAVA?! Probably packed with vulnerabilities and SLOW... Who knows, maybe OpenBazaar will be the killer app for I2P.

There are other players in the distributed market space. I believe Syscoin is launching their DM soon, possibly others are too?

Yes only ones that are of any value are Syscoin and Bitbay. Bitbay is p2p and Syscoin is blockchain based.

Has anyone here actually tried it?

The lack of listings is largest problem I noticed.  I want to try a transaction to see how it works; but couldn't find anything I wanted on the platform.

Yes I also had this problem, I think there still need to come a lot more stores from users, but I also think its just a matter of time before this is gonna happen.
My first impression about the layout and work ability is pretty good, I love the layout and its also simple to use.

Hehe, NEW project but it's full of errors. It does not matter that it's new. It's a crap. Also, it costs 1 mil USD according to their website

To their credit, I believe they hav released the FIRST EVER decentralized P2P marketplace app (other than Taaki's proof of concept). I agree that it's sloppy, and I hate the choice of python/nodeJS etc for this type of app.

Nonetheless, it mostly works, and it's a huge step forward in software concept and design.

It works, it is free, and there is no server that can be shut down.

The other things can be fixed.

The most important one is to encrypt the IP addresses
