[Peach Bitcoin]

Hey Bitcointalk!

I would like to introduce you to Peach, a mobile application that directly connects buyers and sellers of BTC. Bitcoin is winning, we believe we are part of the good people who wanna win with Bitcoin, and we want Peach, whose aim is make stacking sats p2p the standard, to be known.

Building a great product is cool, but it’s cooler if people actually use it.  

We want peach to learn from the user insights! We intend to strengthen our position in the p2p niche and want to start with Bitcointalk, moreover, we have already started some preparations, so we will announce ourselves in full force very soon! Please feel free to ask!

I'll reserve this post in case I need extra space for an announcement.

Steph, Welcome!

I am glad that you heeded my advice and turned your eyes towards mere mortals. 

I am sure that Peach will definitely become an excellent addition to those projects that are already presented on the forum.

Once again, welcome to Bitcointalk!

[Darker45]

Welcome to the forum!

It is good that you decided to officially introduce your product here. But even before you doing this, there has already been a discussion of your platform here. Although there are some who appreciate the way PeachBitcoin works, there are also those who are skeptical. For one, it is an issue to some that your app is closed-source.

You must understand that trust is not easily earned especially if there are security concerns raised. Perhaps you might want to spare some time and drop by the thread discussing your platform and respond to the legitimate issues raised.

Welcome to the forum,

Nice to see you here with the mobile platform where today almost people used it.

Is it possible to add our currency (IDR) to Supported payment methods? We have GoPay and OVO also, which I think those National Options payment is very popular in my country, and that possibly will bring Indonesia Customer comes to use your application.

And I hope the developer builds up to another platform like Windows, and immediately listed to another application like the Apple store. (it is still testfligth).

Welcome to the forum!

We need more peer-to-peer (p2p) exchanges so that we can enjoy trading without KYC. I'm not quite familiar with the service, but I'll do some research and give it a try. The p2p exchange that I'm using now is Binance p2p, but I had to undergo a KYC for my account, so this one would be good to retain our privacy.

Just leaving this here.... (congratulations).

I guess after the Paxful incident, PeachBitcoin will become a gulliver very soon. 

[LeGaulois]

I shared more or less the same point in the french forum. After localbitcoins, paxful, and others, there is a big audience to grab.
With a correct business plan and a smart communication strategy, I won't be surprised if PeachBitcoin becomes bigger than Bisq and hodlhodl together. And I'm serious, the company has the potential and if everything is planned correctly, it can only work.
People working for the company must be motivated. I mean, it's always exciting to work for a company and take the challenge when you know it can work

I installed the application to use it. Very rarely I install something because I hate mobile phone, but PeachBitcoin is interesting

What surprised me is this tweet:
...
8000 app downloads, 5600 trades completed
...
 
Quite high for a begining, but at least it shows there is a demand

Sheeeesh look that bitcoin 🍑

I tried to install the app using the "DOWNLOAD ON ANDROID" button, but it seems that either the URL is incorrect or the app has been removed from google play store?

[IIrik11]

i searched the app on google play store and it says:



btw, i searched for 'peach bitcoin' and 'peachbitcoin' as well.

both searches had similar results.

[Pmalek]

Forget about the Play Store. You can just download the app from the official website if you want to use it.

@Peach Bitcoin
I assume you are no longer in a beta stage? The first time I heard about the service, it was still being tested and not yet ready for massive adoption.
Can you give us some more stats about how things are going so far?

LeGaulois already mentioned 8.000 downloads and over 5.500 completed trades.
What about countries, currencies? Are there any geographical restrictions, and how many fiat currencies are supported? 

[Little Mouse]

They only support these currencies as they mentioned on their website- https://peachbitcoin.com/how-it-works/#:~:text=Supported%20Currencies
EUR
GBP
CHF
SEK
DKK
NOK
PLN

They have something called meetup for cash transactions though I haven't checked them by registering. I think they should consider adding more supported currencies so people around the world can easily trade. Only that will help them reaching more audience, otherwise, in such a competitive market, it will be very hard for them to continue the business.

Interesting. Those are all European fiat currencies. The pound, Swiss franc, Swedish/Danish/Norwegian Krona, and the Polish zloty. 
Still, we are missing the Czech koruna, the Bulgarian lev, and the Russian ruble. Not to mention the USD and other non-EU currencies. I wonder if the service is even available in the US, Canada, China, Australia, etc.?

Sheeeesh look that bitcoin 🍑

I tried to install the app using the "DOWNLOAD ON ANDROID" button, but it seems that either the URL is incorrect or the app has been removed from google play store?

So on iOS peach is in TestFlight. On google, peach is in the European countries store (anyone with android can download the apk).

- usd will never be added and Us IP are banned (regulations).
- russian ruble due to sanctions and regulation.
- the chinese yuan is of no interest to us, since we are focused on europe.

Can you give us some more stats about how things are going so far?

We will soon share weekly peach market stats from our newsletter. 🍑

Nevertheless, we have ~800 open offers to buy open all the time (the average transaction amount is 250 CHF).
There is currently a demand for CHF 200,000 per day, although we only meet about CHF 10,000 per day!

https://peachbitcoin.com/apk/

As for Google Play, I found the app, so I don't know why some users have problems finding it. Of course, the option is to install directly via APK, but such an installation requires the user to allow installations from unknown sources - it is much simpler (mostly and safer) to install the app directly from Google Play Store.


@Peach Bitcoin, my suggestion when it comes to payment options -> Aircash.

[Pmalek]

Too bad that there are so many restrictions and that you are solely focused on the EU and nothing else. I also find it regretful that a huge nation like Russia is blacklisted. Bitcoin is a currency of everyone or no one, but that's your decision.

I tried searching for it manually and couldn't find it on my PC. I didn't try over the phone. "PeachBitcoin", "Peach Bitcoin", or simply "Peach" doesn't show me any good results. Can you post the link to the app so I can check?

[blue Snow]

I can't open applications via download on android also in my phone. But, I can install it via download APK on Android.
I believe this is the play store problem.

It would be best if the service were available globally, but the EU is still a huge market with just under 500 million people and one of the richest areas in the world. In the future, there is always the possibility that the service will expand outside the EU. As for Russia, it is not only a matter of a personal decisions, but also the fact that most of their banks are on the blacklist, and anyone who would try to avoid these sanctions by offering this kind of service would only create additional problems for himself.

@blue Snow gave the correct link, and via a smartphone, the result for the keyword "peach" puts the app somewhere between 4 and 6 places on the list of results, and although it was not the case yesterday, today when I search for "peach bitcoin" I get a direct link to the app.

Hi Peach, nice to see you here, I am glad you joined Bitcointalk forum
Please tell me are you official representative or team member of Peach Bitcoin app?

I noticed your app before and last month I created my own discussion topic for Peach, so you can see can take a look there for any additional feedback:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5444162.0

So on iOS peach is in TestFlight. On google, peach is in the European countries store (anyone with android can download the apk).

What's up with the rumors you are going to release Peach app as open source software?
That would be great, if it happens.

[o_e_l_e_o]

I spotted you a few months ago on https://kycnot.me/. Always a good thing to see more non-KYC and real peer to peer trading platforms popping up (not centralized exchanges advertising themselves as P2P). Hope you do well!

A few questions if you don't mind:

1 - Your privacy policy states that you collect the details of fiat payment methods, as well as receiving bitcoin addresses. How long do you store this data for?

2 - Your privacy policy states you share email addresses with MailerLite for the purposes of marketing. Why can't users opt out of this?

3 - Your FAQ says the following:

When making a sell offer, the seller sends the bitcoin to an address that is controlled by him and Peach: the bitcoin can only be moved from here, if he and Peach both sign off on it.
...
If the trade doesn't resolve normally, this address automatically comes into full control of Peach after roughly 30 days (to be precise: when 4320 bitcoin blocks have been mined).

I assume this is a 2-of-2 multi-sig. Is this correct? Can you share your additional script on top of the standard multi-sig script which allows you to spend these coins with a single private key after 4,320 blocks?
