Yeah it requires javascript for relays, like everything on nostr every app is a proof of concept but marketplaces also work on amethyst over orbot etc

I may annoy you right now but I could suggest using nostr as well lol there’s already marketplaces on nostr the only problem is there is no mediation but nostr marketplaces show up in any nostr app http://ikduzlpwcc4khvj27rlywgic6eaxj5w3brj4uo54z2sfyj7b2hfrepyd.onion/marketplace

No idea I also wondered this, I haven’t purchased digital accounts and just grabbed an example from the site but google specifically is very annoying when you create alts so I’m pretty sure if you buy one and log-in using another device and IP they’ll start firing you with captchas, maybe ask your phone number, then maybe a throaway one could work? But it could not last long until they keep asking you to verify, unless it’s a very old account I think older accounts may be easier to use and not be flagged as spam

I’d ask in the comment section of the listing

https://monero.market/, moneromarket.io ? I can’t verify their legitimacy though never used

https://xmrbazaar.com/ has a few accounts, you can use the search bar for what you are looking, for example: https://xmrbazaar.com/listing/AuvH/

But like in the example I linked, always make sure to look in the sidebar where it says Payment so that it has an option called Multisig escrow, and if buying always pick that, because that means the funds can only be released if the seller actually delivers, while a direct payment you are sending coins straight to their wallet and they can delete the listing as if it never existed and start over, even if it has reviews since they are easy to fake and a fake review doesn’t have to pay anything they can simply be made for free. Just a heads up

That is very interesting. And I like how close it seems to be usable. hope the CCS succeeds

Yep

Yes it is an Amethyst fork with a Monero wallet and support for tipping

And then switching from Matrix to nostr channels and from IRC to SimpleX private messaging

If you want a more decentralized system + with strong privacy and anonymity, we should use nostr communities instead where anyone can create throaway npubs and you can access it from any nostr website, not being stuck to a single domain:

It seems to be more like hiding coins in different addresses while obscuring it on chain & using some clever math to make the UX better.

You are accurate: you “hide” coins in different addresses which are only know to the receiver and the sender, I cannot paste a SP address in a block explorer and find what addresses belong to it, and what is the total balance of this BTC user. I can however send a payment to it and then have a “watch” on this entity, there is no obscuring happening on-chain so usual heuristics like when a coin is spent, to where, how much is change, etc still apply.

Which also means if they spend many SP payments together, they reveal to me & others all the addresses belonging to them and what the total balance was, you can think of it like if bitcoin users sent their BTC addresses to each other via DMs, but it removes the interactivity step from handling new addresses, while adding the scanning requirement so the receiver can also know which addresses were generated to them without having to ask senders each time

It is a good feature to have in general in my opinion, but definitely does not come any close to competing with Monero still
