- I wanted to ship fast to see if anyone liked the idea and would actually use it
- There are a couple of safeguards in place:
1. Since you can only sign in via Twitter, you get a good sense for the other person (buyer or seller), as well as the likelihood that they own the domain they are claiming to
i.e.
7 followers, 3 day old account... probably doesn't own 'google.com'
17k followers, 10+ year account, active indie hacker... I can believe they own 'dwarf.domains'
2. Any sales are escrow'd by me as a middle party, so there's not much room to scam someone anyhow
So this isn't a perfect nor permanent solution, but good enough to test whether or not it's worth taking the platform further
