I built a Prusa I3 REPrap opensource printer in a workshop.
It was a fun super time consuming ride. I printed tons of stuff and spent hours tuning it and fixing it once it would break.
Then I sold it at 40% loss and focused on webdev! I gained lots of hands on experience and familiarity with software and hardware that I did not have before.

Excellent Ideas. Delays on large withdrawals, daily limits, monthly limits etc.

Like I said blaming software is not a legitimate excuse. And there is no silver bullet but there must be procedures and good practices that make it too demanding and hard where time + effort will be way greater then the reward.

Thank you but this is for running your own wallet not for running a payment receiving and sending system for thousands of customers.

just trying to get the next "investor" in.
But overall I am disappointed with exchanges I keep all the crypto in the wallet and take out what I consider risk/loss to play/pay someone.
The whole Idea of crypto is not to keep it with a designated third party.
Oh no DOGE gone Ponzi

No .. the sign that they are rotting is them banning bitcoin apps. So I can have a bank app but not a bitcoin app on my phone.

Not good enough to switch from craigslist.
Craigslist is better exposure and this app does not really solve any real problems. A perfect example of starting a business for the sake of starting a business.

Use craigslist experience to become better at negotiating.
Problem with this app is there is a limited amount of users while cl has 90% of the market. So you will probably still get a better deal on cl.

Collect $2 each from the 1000 participating students... and buy the guy a new laptop. I am sure they would not mind ... and for those who do there will be others who will put in some cash.
