Coinbase vs Shopify for new coins

[armenmerikyan]

Instead of getting listed on Coinbase which is almost impossible for small/new projects, I was thinking of using Shopify as an alternative to sell coins. Basically everyone that want's to sell brownie coin would have to setup a shopify store and start selling through shopify.  

Let me know what you think

I didn't know that shopify is now an alternative to sell coins. Do you have a link for this or proof that we can sell coins(Altcoins).
Do you mean, shopify is like an exchange platform were We can able to trade cryptocurrency is this what your trying to emphasize

Think of it like this, you want to sell coins, setup a shopify store and sell the coin for USD at whatever price that you like. It could be any coin, bitcoin, litecoin, each coin is a product on the shopify store. buy the coin, provide your address and coins are sent to that address.

This is like an exchange that you're describing but it's just slower than the usual exchange that we have. If it's needed to provide the address for the bought coins to be sent later, that's a manual process, unlike the usual exchange that you can withdraw it anytime as long as you're at the threshold of minimum withdrawal.

What OP's idea is like the marketplace for e-commerce just like what we see with them selling goods and products online. But in his idea, it's his coins or any other coins that will be listed there.

with an Exchange you can buy and sell coins with one account, with this model (e-commerce) you can only buy from a shopify store, If you want to sell your coins you would have to setup a store for yourself and start selling the coins from your store front. This gives us the ability to not deal with the KYC problem since we are only selling coins and not buying them.

Why not just list your coin on uni or sushi instead? As I believe it's even free to do (just the cost of gas fee) and all you need to do then is advertise your project and spend the listing fee on marketing instead:)

Might as well, right?

With this model every person that want's to sell coins would have to setup their own Shopify store, obviously they can sell other products along with the coins like t-shirts, ...

It brought me up with a big question: Is Shopify just an intermediary platform or an exchange?
I got what you mean, each customer can create their own store there, and sell the coins they want. So, do customers deposit those coins to your platform? If yes, how can your platform hold all coins (no matter what platform it works on, even junk coins)? And if the customer does not need to deposit, so your platform is just becoming an intermediary website. Customers can put anything there, even paper. What is the difference between Shopify and an intermediary website?

Shopify would not be an exchange, you can't returns your coins for money. you can only buy coins from a shopify store. If you would like to sell coins for cash, you would have to setup your own store, provide shopify with your banking information and sell the coins that way. With this model you know who the buyer and sellers are. it's traditional commerce versus an exchange.

Ya, I got you  So, your idea is to bring currencies (created to operate on a decentralized platform) into transactions on a centralized platform like a bank, huh?

it doesn't have to be a bank, your merchant store could be a bitcoin store instead of shopify. you can sell stuff for bitcoins if you don't want to get the bank involved.

[ChuckBuck]

it doesn't have to be a bank, your merchant store could be a bitcoin store instead of shopify. you can sell stuff for bitcoins if you don't want to get the bank involved.

Well, it means the options are completely expanded according to the customer's wishes, and there won't be any limits, right? Understand your idea, but I think it is difficult to implement. If a customer wants to receive money through BTC, your platform will have to become an intermediary to hold the BTC. If customers want to receive money through the bank. Your platform must work with those banks' payment gateways.

Let's say John wants to sell his coins, He creates a Shopify store, johnscoinsstore.com lists his coins for sale, sell his coins and he is done.

Let's say Paul purchased some coins from John's Shopify store, Now Paul want to sell his coins, so Paul sets up a Shopify store paulscoinstore.com, lists his coins for sale, and sells his coins back to John or Jane ...

Yes, I understood what you said. But you have not mention how they make a checkout on their own sales website yet. Can John put any form of payment on his website? So who will protect the buyers? If the Paul has sent John money, but John says he has not received it yet, how to protect Paul?

Hey u thought about to use Shopify for selling Coins?

If you make such accusations you should at least do a little research .

Who is protecting the buyers at the moment at an ICO? Is there usually an escrow?

This is only for those projects that don't have a huge market and you're like selling them privately through the proposed model and store through Shopify.

You may not require the KYC but the more important factor is the worthiness of the coin and what will be the other essentials and distributions that it can give to the buyers.
