Motivation:

- mitigate risk of two users wanting to exchange gotchis, wearables, etc.

Implementation:

- Sellers can choose to list their item for sale, trade, or both.
- Buyers can offer item(s) in exchange for items up for trade.
- If a seller likes the trade offer, they accept and the items are swapped.

Buyers can do reguests for buys. Seller can choose to fullfill the order.

100% agree, we need OTC. I don’t know how are the players are doing at the moment, but I assume they would need a trusted player to act as an escrow system, not so great.
