Introducing Safe Trade
Built-in escrow, now live
Built-in escrow, now live
What's New
- A full P2P escrow system, built directly into the forum. Live trade chat, built in dispute resolution, and automatic timers so trades can't stall forever
- New supported currencies: XMR (Monero), BNB, and SOL (Solana)
How It Works
- Create a trade — set a title, description, amount, and currency. Choose whether you're the buyer or the seller, then invite the other party by username.
- Fund the escrow — either party can lock in the exact trade amount in the trades own currency. The platform fee is charged separately and can be paid in any currency your wallet holds.
- Seller delivers — mark the trade delivered once your side of the deal is done.
- Buyer approves — funds are released instantly to the seller. If the buyer doesn't respond, funds auto-release after a set window so sellers aren't left waiting on a silent buyer.
Flexibility Built In
- Need more time? Either party can request a deadline extension — the other side just has to confirm it. Unanswered requests auto-expire so a trade can never get stuck waiting on someone who's gone quiet.
- Something off, but not dispute-worthy yet? Flag the issue to pause the auto-release timer while you sort it out directly, then restart it once you're good.
- Need to back out? Either party can request to cancel — once the other side confirms, escrow is fully refunded and the trade closes.
- Can't resolve it yourselves? Open a dispute at any point and staff will step in to review and settle it.

New Release Notice
This is a brand new system. We've tested it thoroughly, but as with any fresh release, bugs can still slip through. If a bug is found during an active deal, we'll refund the escrow fee for that trade. Reach out to an administrator directly and let us know what happened.Questions, feedback, or found something off?
