Posting an offer
An offer is something you have and are willing to trade. A request is something you need.
To post:
- Go to Marketplace → Create Project
- Choose Offer or Request
- Set the commodity type: Lease, Hire, or Exchange
- Add a description, availability, and location
- Optionally attach a video slideshow — this dramatically increases engagement
Receiving a proposal
When someone is interested, they send a proposal. You'll receive a notification. You can:
- Accept — moves to contract stage
- Counter — propose different terms
- Decline — closes the proposal
Moving to contract
Once accepted, the platform generates a contract with:
- Both parties' signatures required
- Milestones you define (or use a template)
- Escrow: the buyer's LTU is locked until milestones are released
Completing a trade
- Buyer funds escrow with LTU
- Seller delivers on the milestone
- Buyer approves — escrow releases to seller
- Both parties' IA scores are updated based on outcome
If there's a disagreement, either party can open a dispute — which triggers the expert panel process.
