We, @steem-supporter as the name says , have always been committed to add value to the steem ecosystem by any means we could. We have developed RUPA The notification BOT for discord after GINA was abandon.

RuPa Bot

We have made steem chat available to steemians tho its not being used, we still want to keep this operating.

Today we have came back to write a post announcing OPEN MARKET (A Decentralized Market Place for STEEM ).

We have been working on this for a long time and its around 60% complete. We were influenced by purse as we were working on something similar for bitcoins and now have decided to make this avilable for steem only. (Both on normal web and TOR)

What is Open Market?

Open Market is something similar to EBAY where everyone is allowed to buy and sell anything . Exclusively for steemians.

Is Open Market is a DAPP?

Yes, all transactions happening in Open Market such as listing event BUY/SELL event, auction event, bid event are broadcasted to the Steem Blockchain with custom json.

How does it will work ?

Any one wanting to sell anything in open market can simply use the quick listing and list there items for a USD price i.e converted to STEEM in realtime, there is no fees for quick listing . If anyone wanting to list a lot of items and want their own custom shop page like the amazon has , they might have to pay a specific price. However quick listings are limited to 5 active listings .

Payment security and delivery ?
As of now payments are escrowed with @steem-Keeper as default until buyer confirms delivery. In any case of disputes , there is a dedicated dispute management system where sellers can upload proof of delivery and other shipment details.
No addresses shall be saved withing the system, and seller will be notifed about details on a encrypted memo.

These are the basics of Open Market . However there are three phases in open market that will be released eventually

Phase 1 - June 1st

Features:

• Quick listing enabled

• Implementing steem's standard escrow system (We call @steemitblog @steemcurator01 to be a part of it )

Phase 3 - July 10th
