OpenBazaar is een opensourceproject voor een e-commerceplatform, oftewel online winkelen, met het grote verschil dat er geen centraal punt is, zoals bij een webwinkel van een bedrijf, maar een p2p-netwerk op de achtergrond dat alles aan elkaar knoopt. Betalingen tussen verkopers en kopers worden via verschillende cryptocurrencies, zoals bitcoin, bitcoin cash en zcash tot standgebracht. Voor meer informatie verwijzen we naar deze pagina, waar de features van OpenBazaar worden doorgenomen. De ontwikkelaars hebben eerder versie 2.2.0 uitgebracht, met de volgende aanpassingen:
Release Notes
This is a major release, which adds buying and selling cryptocurrencies, opt in analytics, and many optimizations and bug fixes.
New FeaturesImprovements
- The ability to buy and sell cryptocurrencies was added. The currencies can be sold at market rates. This feature is experimental, and is expected to be rapidly iterated on as we recieve feedback from users. #1308
- An opt-in analytics package was added. Users are able to choose to share non-identifying data with the development team. This will facilitate identifying bugs and improving the app. Users can start or stop sharing data at any time. #1277
Bug Fixes
- Norweigan, Polish, and Ukranian translations reached the 80% translated requirement, and were added as options for the client. #1324
- When viewing your sales, unfunded orders will now be hidden by default, since you cannot take action on those orders, and they clutter up the list of orders. You can still chose to view those orders. #1310
- Listing card image loads will now cancel when the image card is no longer on the screen. This primarily improves the experience when changing pages in the search results or navigating away from a page of search results that hasn’t finished loading. #1309
- Verified moderators are now lazy-loaded. This will speed up startup, and notify the user if the list of verified moderators changes while they are looking at information that will be affected by that change. #1298
- Verified moderators are loaded from a Tor endpoint if the user is in Tor mode. #1284
- Blockdozer changed their URL for viewing BCH transactions, the URL used when viewing details of transactions has been updated. #1320
- An issue where the no valid moderators error would show on an error at the same time as the no verified moderators message, and with the wrong formatting, was corrected. #1307
- A problem where invalid mods would never stop loading was fixed. #1306
- Error messages meant for only the purchase flow no longer appear in the settings/store tab. #1306
- Some layout issues with moderator cards were corrected. #1300
- In the settings/store tab, if a moderator assigned to your store has become invalid, now the only option is to de-select them. #1300
- An unused memo parameter was removed from the purchase call. #1314
- A minor layout issue was corrected in the transactions list. #1285
- The bug where pages stats are changed to zero in the page tabs on the user page when the page settings are updated was fixed. #1287
