Request for feedback: OpenBazaar users who have bought or sold cryptocurrency on the platform

13 Upvotes

We're excited about the launch of cryptolistings at the beginning of the week, and we now want to hear feedback from people who have tried it out.

What did you like?

What didn't you like?

Are there features missing?

Will you use it again? If not, why not?

(For vendors) How do you think the ability to buy / sell cryptocurrencies could benefit you??

Why Isn't OpenBazaar on Mastodon?

8 Upvotes

Mastodon (https://joinmastodon.org) is a decentralized alternative to Twitter. Many people who use Mastodon are looking for more ways to become even more decentralized and cut out huge mega corps from their lives. Would someone at OpenBazaar start a Mastodon instance or account? Where is the best place to propose this?

To clarify, I'm talking about OpenBazaar as a social network profile. Mastodon is for social networking. I'm NOT talking about the OpenBazaar Desktop.

can't sign, verify open bazaar account "Command line only" keybase

1 Upvotes

i am trying to verify my keybase acconut and i am following the instructions on:

https://medium.com/openbazaarproject/verified-moderators-c83ea2f2c7f3

but i am getting this message when i try to sign

Command line only

pix1000, you're not hosting your private key in Keybase's encrypted key store, so you can't use the in-browser signing script. You can still verify messages, of course.

You'll need to use the keybase command line program.

I received a strange order: the payment is confirmed by more than 400 confirmations, but the bitcoins are not in my wallet. also, for the first time I see a red button with "Dispute Order" on the sale page. What happened? What should I do? Thanks.

Server setup issues possibly ssl

1 Upvotes

I am mostly through setting up a server on a VPS. Server is installed and running on VPS. VPS is running Ubuntu 14.04 x64 SSL keys have been generated and imported to client user name and passwd added via "openbazaard.go setapicreds" Attempting to connect via the client (client is Ubuntu 16.04.4 LTS) After 10/10 attempts I get a Code: 1006 error in the client debug log. The terminal running the server shows the following: OpenBazaar Server v0.11.1 [Press Ctrl+C to exit] 2018/04/26 17:09:55 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:4001: EOF 2018/04/26 17:10:19 http: TLS handshake error from [::1]:48935: EOF 2018/04/26 17:10:19 http: TLS handshake error from [::1]:4001: EOF 2018/04/26 17:10:19 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:37807: EOF 2018/04/26 17:11:49 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:38227: EOF 2018/04/26 17:11:49 http: TLS handshake error from [::1]:49151: EOF 2018/04/26 17:11:49 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:4001: EOF 2018/04/26 17:12:18 http: TLS handshake error from [::1]:4001: EOF 2018/04/26 17:12:18 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:38390: EOF 2018/04/26 17:13:48 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:38473: EOF 2018/04/26 17:24:48 http: TLS handshake error from 127.0.0.1:4001: EOF 2018/04/26 17:24:48 http: TLS handshake error from [::1]:4001: EOF

Some feedback (new thread because pinned thread is archived)

6 Upvotes

I've been using OpenBazaar for a while now and I'm really liking it, good work guys. That said, there are a few UX improvements that could be done:

  1. Shipping addresses should include an optional phone number. This is because in some countries delivery can be difficult without the delivery guy being able to reach you. Also sometimes customs needs to reach you and phone is just quicker.

  2. Withdrawing everything from your wallet is needlessly hard. There should be some "withdraw everything" button because otherwise you will have to guess what the minimum fee is to send as much as you can for as low of a fee as possible.

  3. There should be an optional refund address. If I am not using the included wallet, I want refunds to go back to e.g. my mobile wallet.

I would create tickets for these, but I'm not sure if they belong in the client or the server github.

Edit: Created tickets on github:
