LocalMonero is shutting down. How do you plan to do fiat<->XMR now? Do you just keep the addresses and accounts of traders on file and keep going? What about people who haven't started exchanging fiat for XMR yet?

Thanks

You can buy/sell BTC with fiat on bisq, and swap that for Monero.

Haveno is Coming Soon™, it's basically bisq for Monero.

God, the fees. And the devs are assholes.

I'll be waiting for it, thank you

We are a reputable trader on there -> https://agoradesk.com/user/geterdone

and we have decided to build an I2P and Tor replacement. We have not slept since they made the announcement so we can get it up and running as fast as possible for the community. We are currently on the Matrix chat if you want to reach out to us for any questions, etc. -> @geterdone:matrix.org

We would have posted this elsewhere but, literally the only places you can post are constantly blocked. You can tell this very quickly like what happened when localmonero announced on reddit.com/r/monero they had 38 messages but only 15 showed. The fight for privacy is becoming a war and the battlefield is open.

Yes that is a good guide, and we even use the very same chat network they do, Matrix @geterdone:matrix.org Ok back to work for us so we can get the p2p back and not sweat the unneeded/unwanted negative forces.

I thought agoradesk was the same thing as localmonero

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

The differences from our understanding is that localmonero is where you can place ads to sell Monero. Agoradesk is where you could place ads to sell Bitcoin in addition to Monero, a combination of if you will. We are modeling the new site after Agoradesk more so than localmonero but, the functionality will be the same if not identical.

I hope AgoraDesk/LocalMonero will release all of their source code for their platform after they shutdown to allow anyone to fork it and start their own platform without having to build a platform and app from scratch

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Do you think it will help Haveno?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

If the AgoraDesk source code is released? Maybe? It can help anyone who wants to create a P2P trading platform. I think Haveno is written in Java and I have a hunch that AgoraDesk back end is not in Java.
