Freeport — a peer-to-peer marketplace on Nostr

EN·VI

Why Freeport

A real peer-to-peer network — not another platform taking a cut and holding your data.

🤝<br>No middleman<br>Deal directly with the other person and agree your own price. No platform fee, no surge pricing.

🔑<br>No sign-up<br>Your identity is a secure key created on your device — no email, no phone-number account, no password.

💸<br>Your price<br>Negotiate openly with a built-in estimator. Zero commission means more stays with you.

🔒<br>Private by design<br>Messages are end-to-end encrypted. Listings carry only a coarse, neighborhood-level location — never your exact spot.

🌐<br>No backend needed<br>The app has no server of its own — it talks straight to open, public Nostr relays. Nothing for you to host, and no single company can shut it down, censor it, or sell your data.

Earn reputation<br>A transparent, peer-rated karma system builds trust between strangers, with no central authority.

How it works

Post or browse, negotiate, done — all between you and the other party.

Post or browse<br>Request a ride or service, or browse what people nearby are offering.

Negotiate<br>Offers and counter-offers go back and forth privately until you both agree.

Make the deal<br>Confirm, swap contact details over an encrypted message, and meet up.

The full protocol: signed intents, encrypted negotiation, co-signed deal receipts, and reputation as a subjective quantity that makes fake identities weightless.
