The marketplace needs to be rebranded if you want it to be mass adopted.
This is not the final product.  The "Blockmarket" I think should be fully branded and sexy looking.  I'll let the devs confirm the sexiness though... @dano, can you confirm that Blockmarket will be sexy?  Thanks!

 Smiley Yes Blockmarket is our first product on top of the Syscoin platform and is a consumer-grade experience for the decentralized marketplace similar to what most web users are accustomed. Blockmarket's first milestone is in June/July timeframe (on roadmap) and will be a version intended to be run on a standalone server, this offering will also be packaged with our Azure deployments allowing 1-click marketplace deployments.

After the first milestone is accomplished we'll move to the second milestone which is a multi-tenant version of Blockmarket. This will support multiple sellers under one roof. The team will have its own version of this deployed for people to use the Syscoin marketplace with no download or install required. We'll probably cap inventory on the version we host (15 items per user or something) with the goal of driving up adoption and steering merchants who want to scale up into larger inventory towards their own Blockmarket deployment on Azure (milestone 1).

Still aren't 100% decided on what our web wallet experience will be. Given the features of Syscoin we'd really want to enable users with the all these features in any web wallet experience we present. Looking into porting Bitcore to Syscoin to allow for fully independent wallet operation in the browser with no download and without user funds sitting on a web server somewhere.
