P2P Logistics

[BySNiP]

Hello, I am going to release a p2p logistics blockchain that allows users to sign up as Vendors, Purchasers and Transporters. Just like Amazon you can place your order from a vendor , and wait for a delivery person to give it. All of this is done using Wallet signatures, your actual location and your order details are hidden behind a password created using your wallet signature, only visible to those who are in the contract.

Would you guys be interested in testing it out when I release it?
What are your general thoughts on this?
Could you tell me any other networks that provide this service?

Thanks

      -   Your idea about the P2P logistic platform is a good one, and I get what you want to convey. But there are always pros and cons anyway. Maybe I'll start with the cons op first; it's one of those that can't avoid having vulnerability in smart contracts, and even with the counterparty, there's still a risk because sometimes there are others there who don't fulfill their obligation properly. Although I'm not saying that what you're saying will happen, I'm just showing you the possible things in the future that may or may not happen.

But the pros of that always on your part are that you can accumulate more crypto's because of your transporters or purchasers who will avail of the service, and the second is that it can provide a flexible schedule and there is no middleman needed there compared to the traditional logistics that we are used to, and above all, the transparency is there because of the blockchain technology that touches it.

Wouldn’t it be the one who uses it? Who would be interested? I am thinking of a larger scale where you contact the manufacturers and have them use your logistics app or somewhat make it an offer so that they could use your technology.

I’m not sure though how you could over the very big companies that are known for logistics but I hope and wish you good luck for that

Hello, thanks for the reply.
 I'm currently mapping those who don't fullfill their obligations, and slashing money they escrowed.

I wanted to understand how do I promote this when I release it.

Currently I wanted the community to use it. How do I get people to try out the app assuming I release it?
Is it even worth trying conceptually?

I don't want to contact manufacturers/logistics companies as it's the beta version. Looking for community feedback. I guess it'll be better if I release it.

The moment you're able to do such a thing the whole thing stops being p2p, you have a centralized system with an entity that can revoke escrow and ban clients, this is not decentralization, this will be just another platform matching offers.

People will use it if a set of conditions is met:
- it's easy to use
- it's cheaper than the alternatives
- you offer protection even after the sale (refund) in case of a failed contract
Now since your client base will not be normal users but most likely at least LLCs or SPs then you might want to consult some lawyer and accountant based on where you operate from.

If people don't understand how Amazon works and they always need to contact the support team, then creating something that is decentralized and privacy-focused will be more complicated and may require a ready-made and educated customer list, and this list will be limited and have high security standards, so I don't think that such a project will achieve rapid expansion.

In the beta the states are simple. I will scale it by providing OTPs, and also support based on that. Why should the beta be perfect? It will just make you create a trade. Also games like gta can use it don't you think?

I did not understand what you are trying to say. Do you mean that a One-time password will be created for each process, or what do you mean by I will scale it by providing OTPs?

https://localcoinswap.com/ is an example of Non custodial, P2P Trade. You can think of something similar, but the idea is to use multiple signatures and smart contracts to manage everything.

Is this project going to have some new blockchain and token?
I need to see something more first, but I would potentially be interested in testing if you are using currently available blockchains or bitcoin sidechains, but I don't want to mess around with some new centralized blockchains.

You have a great idea and I believe there are people out there who could make use of it for their various businesses. I was looking at the app from this angle of identification. If you design such app  what is the possibility that you would not request for KYC from vendors who make use of your services because this app is something that involves customers exchanging assets for services and sometimes funny things happens and how would you likely resolve those issues without knowing of r having the details of your vendors just like the normal Crypto centralised exchange.
