How to buy at OpenBazaar, the network of stores that accept bitcoin

OpenBazaar is a platform in which we can buy and sell bitcoin in a decentralized way and using distributed accounting technology, in which the members of a network can communicate with each other, that is, it is a blockchain tool.

It is an open source app. It admits only Bitcoin as payment means and there is no intermediary when executing the transactions.

Download and Install OpenBazaar

In addition to the download link, on its website we find the documentation very complete with everything necessary to understand the operation of this tool, but then we will provide a brief summary of how it works on your Windows, macOS or Linux; It is available for each of those operating systems.

Its installation is simple, just like any other program, we just have to be alert to a possible connection error with the server, but we only have to restart the installation until it is done correctly.

The next important thing that we must do is complete the required information, such as our country and currency in which we want to see the publications or to visualize the equivalent of our products, although in reality they will market in bitcoin.

Blockchain Store Explorer

OpenBazaar looks like a browser, in fact, we can refer to that platform as such, since it allows you to explore the stores as a real explorer, with notifications included.

As important information, under our name on the home screen, we will see the OpenBazaar ID, which is a kind of address with which other users can find our profile. Below, we will see information such as followers, followed and a "biography".

In the upper bar, in the right corner, there is a button called Discover, if we click on it we will find the products offered by the people that we follow, but if we press "Random", we will see a list of the products in the whole platform.
