It's a little bit different from Btt approach but i still see bitcointalk model more convinient. I would like to comment some of the hints you mentioned:

- No need to create a SN account: Users can posts anonymously (at a cost)

Bitcointalk is psydoanonymous (i guess SN also collect navigation data so it's not fully anonymous) and all you need is a new fresh email (to not link with your official one) and you can start posting without any cost.

Yes correct, I think is moore we need to agree on the terminology. What I meant is that SN offers both options:
- full anonymity when posting as @anon (I guess only IP is tracked in this case) no email no any type of registration required (I assume this is not possible with BTT)
- partial anonymity as SN offers multiple ways to create an account (Lightning-LNURL, Nostr protocol keys signature)
- psydoanonymously when, as here, one register an account using an external registered account, that could be email address or X/twitter and a nym (psydoanonymous) - However, SN from my understanding does not store much user data, everything is cached and encripted in the browser cache (take this with a grain of salt - can't verify myself, just read about that in the meta forum itself)

But let's just think. Do we really need this level of anonymity to join/use a crypto-based service? It's not a mi-xer by all means unless you plan to assist trades of illegal stuff. I can use a fresh new email address to join an active well-known marketplace and make deals instead of join anonymously a new Marketplace which is still hasn't that popularity to find all what you need as a trader. Also your anonymity will always be partial even if you can post without registration because making trading deals would require to partially breach you privacy as you may share payment addresses or residency address or other personal contact info like telegram or whatsup. Do we really need such a level of anonymity?

From our perspective, we are just operating as moderator of the AGORA territory, the marketplace. We aim to learn and operate it ethically and provide as much education for users to avoid being screw by scammers. I feel BTT is a good place to learn about the challenges that have been presented in past 14 years, and having conversations with users like you, that has been around for long time, help us learn faster how to behave here, but also how to bring this knowledge in other platforms.

You should have a general understanding of how you plan to run a crypto-based Marketplace and be specific in what kinds of trades you aim to cover. See bitcointalk Marketplace, there is sections gor all kind of deals Collectibles/Goods/Digital goods/Services/Currency exchange and much more. Each section has expert members who assist all kind of deals even sometimes without an escrow garantee. I suggest you spend as much time as you can here and resume what and how you want to run this kind of services. Not that we didn't yet talk about scammers and bad people.
