Oddbean new post about login | logout Cool I been speaking to the since November last year, seems like a great tool we can use locally PS. I got some stickers and pins from them, grab few at Beechworth
I was initially turned off by the doxy mobile number. When I thought about it, I realised that the seller already has my full name anyway from the deposit details. A WoT makes a lot of sense.
He doesn't need to have your full name. You can trade with other people even without revealing your identity. It's a bit risky, but when you will have for example 10+ common contacts, you can give it a shot.
They do when you use the fiat banks as a payment method. I couldn't get around that while still accessing euro liquidity from Australia. Vexl has a different set of tradeoffs to Bisq, robosats, etc. I'm actually starting to prefer the Vexl/meatspace model but I don't fully understand them all yet. I can see some incidental benefits arising.
the phone number is your web of trust and everything happens client side with encryption. Vexl doesn't know your phone number. As your network grows the face 2 face trades will be the likely go to for the best privacy. in Czech republic I only do face to face trades and I prefer it it's fun and there's no paper trail.
