Starting bid: 25.0BTC
Buy it now: 60.0BTC
Bid increment: 0.1BTC
End date and time: Saturday, March 26 2016, 11:00 AM UTC
Important:
At any time before the reserve price of 25.0BTC is met, I reserve the right to close this auction. After the reserve price is met, the auction will remain open.
Description:
BTCDLC (bitcoin downloadable content) is a self-service marketplace where independent vendors can create shops to sell their digital content: https://www.btcdlc.com/
Additional information:
It's pretty straightforward for sellers:
For buyers it's super simple, they don't even have to use an email address, though it's safer to do that because a download link is emailed to them once a transaction is confirmed.
I have too many commitments to keep running the site, much less add new features. For example, some sellers have asked for the ability to embed items for sale on other sites. This is low-hanging fruit for any new proprietor.
BTCDLC has a solid reputation. The code is all custom and it is secure.
How many users are there?
There are between 250 and 500 registered sellers and more than 200 shops in the system. The app is free to use for both buyers and sellers. Buyers can optionally tip BTCDLC and sellers can optionally choose to profit share. It's not a huge revenue generator, but with some savvy marketing, it could be.
A note on pricing:
I'm setting the reserve price at 25 BTC and the bid increments at 0.1 BTC. I realize this is a high price for some. But a custom blockchain app with 18 months of reputation, no security breaches, and community goodwill comes with a price tag even if it requires some business development. You could write a clone with cheap offshore development but it would still cost a substantial amount and I doubt it would have the security or performance record of BTCDLC. Even just a security audit of a new site would itself be expensive.
Here is what is up for auction:
Nothing is perfect, and that includes software. So if issues arise in the future, the buyer will need to either be technically proficient or have access to a programmer, because the site is being sold as is. Like they say:

Additional information:
It's pretty straightforward for sellers:
- They sign up with an email and a bitcoin wallet address.
- They link to a Dropbox account and a new BTCDLC folder is created in their Dropbox/Apps folder.
- They create shops and add items by adding them to their Dropbox and settings prices in the BTCDLC admin interface.
For buyers it's super simple, they don't even have to use an email address, though it's safer to do that because a download link is emailed to them once a transaction is confirmed.

Here is what is up for auction:
- The name BTCDLC, the domain transfer rights, and the code that runs the site.
- My help in setting up a new server to host the app. You will have to create an Amazon web services account because parts of the site are hosted on S3.
- I will hand over the Dropbox and Gmail accounts that are associated with BTCDLC so that the site can continue running.
- The current shops that are in the system can continue to operate without interruption but the order history will be deleted for privacy reasons and shop owners will be notified before the sale goes through that they will have some time to delete their shops if they wish. (Let's say seven days for this.)

Sorry, I'm not sure why. You can PM me if you're interested in any of the scripts.
BTCDLC operates in the United States. Ponzi schemes are illegal in the US. This shop was selling Ponzi scripts, which violates the terms of service. There is no programmatic mechanism for catching a violation, so it wasn't automatically removed. If there is some sort of ambiguity or mistake, please contact via email and we can discuss further:

BTCDLC isn't interested in policing what is posted, but things that are expressly illegal in the jurisdiction where the server is located are not really debatable. Thanks!
I'm happy that there are legitimate creative people making stuff and selling on BTCDLC, but it is frustrating that there are people doing problematic things and that shops have had to be deleted. It makes the whole ecosystem look poisonous and shady from an outsider's point of view.

Code placed to BTCDLC a vendor site, but for FREE, still free to download. They virus checked aswell so it's safe to use.
Just a clarification: this is incorrect. BTCDLC does not virus check because we don't actually host any content that is for sale; all content resides on individual vendors' Dropbox accounts.
Very, very late to this party, but just wanted to add BTCDLC to the list of offerings

BTCDLC (Bitcoin downloadable content) is a platform for making storefronts for your digital content. Its free: neither buyers nor sellers pay sales/purchase fees. (Miner fees notwithstanding, but those dont go to BTCDLC, obviously.)
You hook up your Dropbox account and you can create shops to sell your files.
BTCDLC doesn't hold on to your money. Once a sale has resolved (i.e. delivered + downloaded or refunded), the money leaves our servers. We take security seriously, but it's even better to just not have much to steal.
Check it out, please
