Bitcoin2Cash.com - Cash-Only Marketplace

[NghtRppr]

I've just launched the new design of the website which now features an automated system.

https://www.bitcoin2cash.com/

You can open an account by logging in with any valid OpenID login. Once logged in, you can fund your account with BTC by sending to an address tied with your account or with USD by sending cash by mail (no change!) to our business address. Once your account is funded, you can sell BTC by setting an ask amount/price or you can buy BTC by setting a bid amount/price. Trades are performed every 5 minutes. The only fee is a shipping and handling fee when you request a cash withdrawal, which is currently $5.00 but will change as soon I get things running smoothly and figure out a fair price.

So, to start things rolling and generate some interest, I've just opened my own account, deposited 10 BTC and set an ask price for $0.10 for them. The first person that gets a dollar in their account and bids on them will win. On April 15th, I will do the same thing with 100 BTC at a price of $0.20. On May 1st, I will do this yet again with 1000 BTC at a price of $0.40. (assuming BTC prices don't drop drastically, in which case I will lower the price so that it is still far below market price)

The site is brand new and although I've tested it extensively, it's possible that some bugs remain so please be advised.

Also, even if you aren't interested in cash trades, you can still open an account and use it as a safety deposit box for your BTC without worrying about running the Bitcoin client yourself. You also get to take advantage of our automated encrypted backups that are stored on redundant cloud storage services.

Thanks for reading!

Why OpenID?

[NghtRppr]

Why OpenID?

It makes things easier for me. I don't need to worry about managing passwords, verifying email addresses, recovering lost passwords, etc.

[idev]

Nice design and great work sir.

[Hatchetfox]

Looks promising! ^^

It turned me off.

I'm not saying OpenID is bad. I'm saying I don't know anything about it, and couldn't be bothered learning, so I didn't sign up to your site.

Just letting you know because others might feel the same way.

The advantage of OpenID is that you may not even need to sign up: it's entirely possible you already have an OpenID account (possibly without realising it). If you have, say, MySpace account, WordPress blog, Steam account, TypePad blog or Launchpad account then you'll already have an OpenID account. Check the list: there are lots more OpenID providers I've not listed, and the Wikipedia list is likely incomplete.

Ah okay, thanks.

I don't.

I believe at this point any serious bitcoin user will not be afraid of new technologies. And only people who are not going to do real business will not use OpenID.. So bitcoin2cash did not loose anything =))

[Alex Beckenham]

I agree. In the past 2 weeks, I have discovered and studied non-stop bitcoin, tor, truecrypt, gpg, linux, json.

My brain would explode if I seriously added something else at this point.

And only people who are not going to do real business will not use OpenID.

Can't comment on that as I don't know enough about it yet.

Has anyone funded a bitcoin2cash account by mail yet?

I'd love to hear any feedback (positive or negative) with the site, as well as any feedback on sending cash through the mail. Is this generally considerd safe? What are the best practices?

I have done this, do I win?

I haven't received any funds since the new website was launched but back before it was automated the largest transaction was $1,000 in $100 bills. It's best to use security envelopes with the cash wrapped in something like magazine pages. Also, please don't put our business name on the envelopes.

Google accounts are also OpenID compatible.

I'll just put this here.

If I knew how to move our conversation to this thread, I would.

Even better, why not send me your concerns for my safety in private? What's your desire to criticize me publicly if you're not trying to shake confidence in my business? I just find it odd that the only other cash-by-mail Bitcoin exchange has such a keen interest in my safety while nobody else does. Maybe it's because you have a unique perspective but by making it public, it looks more like professional jealousy.

[Maged]

Your safety is completely relevant to the community. Are there contingencies in place should you be imprisoned/killed?

[NghtRppr]

Are there contingencies in place should you be imprisoned/killed?

That's not concern for my safety. That's concern for the safety of your assets.

It's also a valid question. TheMadHatter is getting personal, telling me not to keep drugs in my house, calling me an amateur, telling me that my business is doomed to fail because of fake complaints, etc. That kind of stuff has no business being said publicly if done out of genuine concern. Otherwise, it's just pot-stirring. I can take criticism but I take issue with TheMadHatter trying to act as if he isn't motivated by his own personal agenda.

But to answer your question, yes. If I'm imprisoned/killed, my partner will take over. If we are both are out of commission then my lawyers will be able to shut down the business and settle all current debts.
