Couple questions...

1. Is the decentralized marketplace live and working? Is this the "BlockMarket"?

2. Are you working with BlockNet and dev Dan Metcalf?

Thanks.

1. Is the decentralized marketplace live and working? Is this the "BlockMarket"?

1a. Yes the marketplace is live and working. If you are running the Syscoin QT wallet, you have a fully functioning decentralized marketplace directly in the wallet.

1b. QT is very limited in what you can actually do, and development in QT is tedious.
It also looks quite dated.
So we've developed a new wallet currently called "Blockmarket Desktop" which uses HTML5 and Angular, and is much more flexible with UI capabilities.
Blockmarket Desktop is currently in Beta, available at https://github.com/syscoin/blockmarket-desktop-public/releases/tag/1.0.0-beta5a
The full release should be in the next few weeks. Release date has not been set.

Blockmarket Desktop is a necessary step toward our goal to make the marketplace visible and useable on the Web.
The web version is called "Blockmarket Web" and we will be able to use the same codebase in the desktop wallet as on the web.

2. Are you working with BlockNet and dev Dan Metcalf?

2a. Syscoin is supported in Blocknet but we are not working with them.
Blocknet and Blockmarket are two different projects with different platforms.
Blocknet is a very promising project with incredible potential.
We know and have spoken to Dan in the past when we explored the possibility of somehow integrating Blocknet within Blockmarket.
We are definitely keeping our eye on Blocknet, we strongly support the project and hope to work with them in the future.
