RE: An OpenBazaar Steem Integration Feasibility Report
Hello! Thanks for looking into this and posting this report, it is great insight. I work for OB1, the company leading the development of OpenBazaar, and one of our backend engineers shared your post in our Slack this morning with this thought. Since he doesn't have a Steem account--but I do!--I'm sharing it here!) >>>>
"My suggestion re: "expensive" accounts would be to check how we're doing things with the ETH wallet. It also has a single address per user model which required us to build some smart contracts to handle escrow cases and an extra call to associate specific transactions with an order. This seems to be working well for ETH. If the Steem wallet were able to import an already made account for use, that might get you around the painful Steem account onboarding. I think the bigger concern that was raised was understanding how our escrow cases might work."
I think this maybe should be it's own thought if everything doesn't work out for users of new accounts, as having the ability for any Steemit user to just jump into OpenBazaar and attach/link an account that way.
Awesome! I’ll take a look and see if that might be a good solution. Apparently there’s also so escrow feature built into Steem that I didn’t know about.
