<h2>Frequently Asked Questions</h2>

<br>
<section>
<h3>How Does This Site Work?</h3>
<p class="sale-info">
Visitors are able to register an account in order to receive email notifications and conduct buying and selling.
You can post items you own for sale and make bids on other items in a world marketplace.
If you accept a bid for an item you posted you must ship the item to the buyer in order to
receive the bid (minus any fees).
The site uses an escrow process to keep both parties honest;
buyers send funds to the escrow account which only gets released to the seller upon the buyer's receipt of the item.
</p>
<p>
All transactions on this platform use <a href="https://web.getmonero.org/get-started/what-is-monero/" target="_blank">Monero</a>,
a private, digital currency (cryptocurrency).
</p>
<h3>How Do I Use Monero?</h3>
<p class="sale-info">
In order to send and receive Monero you need to have the software installed on either your phone or computer.
Try out these popular Monero projects:
</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://www.getmonero.org/downloads/" target="_blank">Official Community Funded Monero Software (desktop)</a></li>

<h3>Isn't Cryptocurrency for Criminals?</h3>
<p class="sale-info">
No, but this is a common misconception.
Cryptocurrencies are built by and for the people of the world in an attempt
to fill in the gaps where our existing institutions have failed us.
5 years ago
There is nothing wrong with people exchanging goods and services with one another
and transacting with whatever they believe has value; this is a human right.
</p>
<p class="sale-info">
However, the private and decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies has garnered negative
attention from governments around the world, and by extension, the media. After all,
governments are funded by taxing the citizens of a nation and they work closely with central
banking entities which control the supply of money.
</p>
<p>
Cryptocurrencies can be used to circumvent these systems so those in power
have labelled it as "illegal" or "criminal" when in reality it just doesn't align
5 years ago
with the goals of traditional institutions; it is bringing too much power to the people they argue.
</p>
<h3>Why Monero and not ____?</h3>
<p class="sale-info">
Monero has a long history of being open, honest, professional, and community-focused.
It is built with first-class privacy features that protects it's users from snooping and blockchain analysis.
The nature of most cryptocurrencies is that they use transparent ledgers,
meaning anyone in the world can view your wallet balance and transactions;
there is very little privacy focus.
</p>
<p>
Monero is one of very few truly fungible,
private cryptocurrencies that exist today which is why
it was selected as the primary medium of exchange
on this platform.
