🛡️ EscrowMyCoins - Safe P2P Trading with Bitcoin & Monero

[escrowmycoins]

Hey Bitcointalk! 👋

I'm excited to share EscrowMyCoins - a new escrow service I've been working on to make peer-to-peer crypto trading safer and easier.

Why I built this:
Too many people get scammed in P2P deals because there's no trusted middleman. I wanted to create something privacy-focused, automated, and accessible to everyone.

- What makes it different:
✅ Bitcoin & Monero support - Privacy matters
✅ No KYC required - Your business stays your business
✅ Automated releases - No waiting on support tickets
✅ Self-hosted nodes - We run our own Bitcoin Core & Monero infrastructure
✅ Low fees - Fair pricing, no surprises

- How it works:

Buyer deposits crypto into escrow 💰

Seller ships goods or completes service 📦

Buyer confirms delivery ✅

Funds auto-release to seller 🚀

If there's a dispute, we step in to mediate fairly.

Website: EscrowMyCoins.com

I know trust is everything in this space, so I'm here to answer any questions about security, technical setup, or how disputes are handled. Feedback from experienced traders is super valuable to me!

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. 🙏

Beta notice:
This is a BETA release and we’re actively building a new version with improvements in UI/UX, security hardening, and better automation. Feedback from experienced users here would be hugely appreciated 🙏

We’re also looking for:
🤝 Investors / strategic partners (to accelerate development & audits)
🧠 Co-founders (product, growth, operations)
👨‍💻 Developers (Django/Python, Bitcoin Core RPC, Monero integrations, security)

Website: https://escrowmycoins.com

If you have questions, critiques, or suggestions, drop them in the thread — transparency and community feedback matter a lot here.

Why will anyone trust you with their transactions deal without any reputation and also pay you as high as 2.5% while risking 100% of their funds?
You have a long period of inactivity and recently changed email and password, can you sign a message to prove you're the real owner of the account?

Well, I am building reputation and trust by ''announcing my service''?
You cannot just judge into something straight way or a mysteriously judging the intentions of other people, and Also where is the productive comment? I would be more happy if you pointed out a bug or a good way to improve it rather than you just pointing finger.

As for the long period of inactivity, I low key was travelling the world, super good you should try that for your mood swings.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts. 🙏

I had a quick glance at your platform and noticed you're not automatically calculating & adding the 2.5% fee to the amount the buyer is supposed to pay, while asking them to "send a certain amount exactly"... You might want to reconsider this part ^{[it's a simple fix for tackling the underpayment issue that you mentioned in your FAQ (#4)]}.

BTW, in connection with the response you gave to @Upgrade00, it appears that you haven't posted on either of the following threads in the past:

• The BCT PGP/GPG Public Key Database: Stake Your PGP Key Here
• Stake your Bitcoin address here

Thanks for the feedback.

On fees: we don’t auto-add 2.5% to the buyer’s total because the fee payer is negotiable between buyer/seller—if the buyer sends the trade price exactly, the 2.5% is deducted from the seller payout; if the seller wants to receive the full net amount, the buyer must add the fee on top (we’ll make this clearer in the UI to avoid underpayment confusion).

On trust/identity: fair point—I haven’t staked my PGP key or a BTC address in those Bitcointalk threads yet, but I’ll do it and sign a verification message so anyone can confirm it’s the same operator behind the service.

You're asking to be trusted while we can't know if you can be trusted due to the lack of reputation depite being here since 2020. OF COURSE we can judge you for that! An middle man doesn't make anything safer, it makes transactions riskier.

EscrowMyCoins has been a long-term goal that I am now fully dedicated to finalizing, with a significantly improved version currently in development. I recognize that reputation is a cumulative process, and I am committed to proving this platform's value over time. To accelerate this vision, I am looking for co-founders and investors to join the team. This partnership will allow me to concentrate on technical excellence while we build our market presence together.

How is looking for money going to improve your reputation?

Fair question. Looking for co-founders/investors isn’t something bad, it just helps build faster and better (security, support, dispute handling, ops).
Also, would you drop the same question for yourself in that manner if you just opened your platform? “Looking for money”?
It is quite a rude comment/question my mate and not productive in any way.

Lol. What do you think "looking for investors" is? You want their money. Your domain name is almost 2 years old, your username almost 6 years. You didn't just open your platform.

First of all, Looking for investors does not necessarily mean "Money" but expertise as well.
Technically saying, I am investing my time in replying to your bullshit comments as well.

And as I clearly and previously said, I was occupied with other projects that were time consuming.
Quite a productive feedback from your end lol.
If you want to provide any advice, or any improvements to be made, that would be much better.

In my experience, the ones who respond in anger to criticism are usually scammers, while good users appreciate and understand the red flags.

If you want to provide any advice, or any improvements to be made, that would be much better.

My advice is for everyone to stay away from your "escrow"!

I am all chill not even angry about it, I was laughing out loud because you keep on just fishing for red flags?
You haven’t contributed with any single productive feedback towards this thread and only kept harassing and being negative towards my project, As if you have a sixth sense of whether I have a good or bad intention with my project? That’s what I call bullshit my man.

And for the record, I have no problem about being transparent and setting up multi sig wallets for any cofounders coming onboard, And definitely no problem to make this project decentralised as it is my end up after improving the UI.
