Reposting a previous post of mine because I still do not see a point to this project.

I said it there and I'll say it here, I hope this is open source. If its not... I don't really see the point of having a service such as this. Why would I download your piece of (potentially) mystery software to accomplish something that can already easily be done via PGP + darkweb mail services? There are so many more potential vectors of attack from downloading and running a piece of software as opposed to me visiting a site and using their web application.

I guess I don't exactly understand what the fuck you are trying to accomplish here... Is this a messaging client? Is it meant to be a marketplace eventually? Why would I use your piece of software vs direct email? Is this specifically made for bartards too dumb or fucked up to comprehend PGP and Tor?

Also lol - "decentralized" so instead of going to a centralized dark web email server and using opensource PGP tools I compiled on my own machine, I'm now relying on this piece of software centrally developed by some anonymous /r/DNMs poster, and I am to take his word that his sup3r l33t <rypt0 protocol is secure. Cool. Awesome. Great Idea.

Also why are you calling this a "decentralized market project" when the creator has not given any sort of indication of what this is actually supposed to be?

Looks pretty decentralised.
