Howdy Steemers.
If you haven't heard there's another emerging platform that looks to be the next future decentralized eBay.
OpenBazaar (http://www.openbazaar.org)
The team has created a great platform that's easily to get a store up and running without the barriers and costs of a 3rd party like Shopify or eBay.
Do you like hot sauce? Do you like art? How can someone take the curation and editorial power of SteemIT and add a commerce platform or storefront (Optional of course)
There are even tools like:
BazzarHound for Android - Search for products and stores on your phone. (Would you like to see a review of it?)
AND: You can get your store running easily on your local computer or even a host like AWS or Vultr.
Now, here's the proposal:
Merge the OpenBazaar platform for purchases with Steem to create a true open decentralized commerce platform (TODCP) that uses "Steem" as its currency via Bitcoin. So you could purchase glass bead necklaces through @craig-grant store or even some
@dragonho art or stories.
What do you think OpenBazaar Plug-in for SteemIT ?
@Ned or @Dan - Any thoughts?
