 This man gets it 👌 
 Thanks I love the concept, excellent work  
 Yes, but I didn't win the auction 😆 
 you’re a bitcoiner on nostr, you’re already a winner 😁

Thank you for taking part my friend 💪🧡 
 And thanks to you for founding it 🙏💪 Bitcoiners are great people, full of strength and amazing ideas 🧡 
 The 2FA is very nice. 
this should be standard practice for verifying npub ownership. 
 WHOAAATT??? NO! Worst ever! Unless it changed recently. 
 Seriously appreciate you both trying us out… we’re self funded grass roots and this isn’t even the MVP yet 

The first stage of our MVP is now ready and will be put live in 2 weeks 

The login has seen a number of refinements and the new one is tuned better we think to nostr/Lightning login  

All code is FOSS the way it should be 💪🧡 
 Why is it the worst?

It was very smooth for me. 
 The problem is it's a multi step process and not very private where it could just ask my nip07 to sign a message.

As it is, I can trivially get a list of all login events of all nostr users without much gain.

It is better than asking for the private key though. 
 Yeah we tried to avoid touching the private key. This is the best we came up with... 6 months ago or so.

Since then we pretty much rewrote the whole thing, including the log in. The new version just asks your extension to sign an event, but the event never gets sent to relays.

Coming very soon.
  
 Yes I tried it for my paintings, the idea is good, but it's not graphically attractive.  
 100% I agree 

We know it… a redesign is due… we’re not designers, we’re yet to hire one… it’s a priority once we got the MVP live 

Thank you for trying us out though Isobel… love your work  💪🧡 
 Not yet but will when they'll not ask about TT account. 
 Yes - and it’s about to get even better. Coming very soon 
 👾⚡️ 
 Yes. Clunky login. No buyers when I tried to sell art. 
 How long ago was this? 

The login has been greatly improved 

TIP: use your connected Lightning wallet to login on mobile and use your Alby (or equivalent browser extension) to login on nostr 

Sorry your art didn’t sell… no site can guarantee that and we are grass roots self funded, there is no marketing budget to drive buyers 

We recommend people share their products on their social networks and work it… don’t rely on a single post (often people do) 

Have you got a link to your art? Please drop it here… I’d love to see it 

We’re releasing the official MVP in a couple of weeks with a new homepage design coming very soon afterwards 

We will highlight anything we like 👍 
 I just now tried out nostr login with nos2x-fox and it was asking me to put in a message I received via IM which means that there was a permanent record created of me logging in just now. And it was much slower than need be.

I don't have a connected lightning wallet.

I had commissioned "crypto coffins". Just last week I got the complete batch but I'm not a marketing guy and apparently it was a weird idea :) I'll share the links when I find the time to upload photos of the whole set. 
 The new version, with improved Nostr log in, is not live yet. Coming in 2 weeks. Final bug fixes and testing underway. What you tried is a very old version of our Nostr log in which worked by sending you a DM. We use the extension to log in now. 
 In a few weeks, we'll have a Nostr-based login, besides a lot of other improvements in UX/UI.

Do you have a Nostr extension? Then you just click "Use Nostr extension" and you're set. 
 I'm about to try.
Why you're asking? 
 have you paid attention to me yet? 
 Bitcoin only. I want a marketplace where I can use shares in my Lamborghini to pay for stuff. Jesus 
 Just wait 2 weeks until we release the full Nostr-based version...

It will have better UX/UI, Shopping Cart (you can add products from different stores), Private Messaging and more!!

Everything for fixed price products and for Auctions, interoperable with already existing nip-15 stores!
