Yes, a Telegram bot is certainly much less secure in terms of communication privacy compared to a program like Bisq, for instance. This service prioritizes user-friendliness over achieving 'perfect privacy'.
It's also structurally different from Bisq, because here users cannot choose how much BTC to sell. Instead, it's a kind of competition where the first person to book a so-called 'purchase request' gets the opportunity, which means that selling large amounts of BTC is impractical. Furthermore, when using the Telegram bot, you only need to provide your Wise payment link—there's no requirement to input personal data directly. While you might consider this link as 'personal data', it's ultimately a matter of your discretion, especially if you prioritize perfect privacy.
Our network, which launched in November 2024, has a unique operation. The goal of this service is to facilitate connections between individuals looking to accomplish different tasks that require the use of Bitcoin through other services we offer. I know it sounds a bit crazy, but it really isn’t.
If you'd like to learn more, you can find us on Telegram (@bitzon_network) where you can gather further insights and discover each and every service linked to this one. You'll also discover how we can offer a +2.5% bonus instead of a fee, and why it still remains 'profitable' for us to do so.
Of course, users need to trust the escrow service, which means trusting us. We hold the bitcoins and will 'release' them only when the Wise payment link is marked as 'settled' by Wise itself, indicating that the payment has been successfully completed. In our view, this is the only effective way to facilitate the process without relying on a centralized escrow service that also handles the Euro payment, which would be:
1. Impossible to do, given the regulatory framework
2. Easier to track, since you would consistently receive Euros from the same entity
Finally, let me clarify that using the service is perfectly legal since taxation is a personal matter. Individuals can utilize our service and later report their sales—those details are not our responsibility.
With this message, our intention is not to 'defend' our service but rather to acknowledge that there are both pros and cons.
But who is "us" ? Do you have a website/company? Or just people must trust because you say so?
If you do not have any other source to provide legitimacy, I doubt that this is legit.
