When a Mostro 🧌 dispute opens, it's never an algorithm deciding who's right.

The admin of that node, or a solver they've assigned, looks at the actual evidence.

A real person makes the call, and the sats move based on what actually happened.

How do you know you're not trading with the house?

There are rules to prevent that from happening.

Show me the code.

Each person has their counterpart to prevent these things from happening

Let me ask the same question so that you don't have to bullshit me:

How do you know that the offer you're taking was not from the same person as the person doing the dispute resolution. Don't say different nostr key because I can generate one in about 18ms.

How do you know? Simple question. Don't tell me vague shit about rules or prevention. Show me the code or the protocol documentation where it is explained which mechanism prevents this.

Opti.....can you work your magic there?

work what magic? I am aware of the code. I am just not aware of anything that would protect me from a self-dealing coordinator. So if people are saying that no there are protections, then I'd like to know where, because I in fact didn't find them.

Ahh....I just understood your point now.

When creating the project, the developers consider all those potential scenarios, and there are certainly safeguards in place to prevent such issues; there is likely a supervisor overseeing a coordinator, and that supervisor has someone above them ensuring the project isn't defrauded. The reality is that it is filling the void left by @inp2p in the community and is easier to use than the bot. Your question is valid, and other Stackers surely share that same doubt.

Firstly, the number of SATs traded here is small; everything has a counterpart. The keys are generated by a node and reviewed by an administrator in case of a dispute. In the scenario you propose, it's very difficult because an administrator shouldn't risk their work and reputation in the community for so few SATs. I obviously don't have the codes; the developers or a senior administrator must have them. I'm only promoting the project because of its importance.

I understand that you're promoting, that is clear. However, be careful to answer questions with things you don't know. I don't raise this issue for you to defend it, I ask because that's how people get rugged.

Note that nostr identities are disposable, and that there is no sybil resistance. A reputation can be faked. So be careful.

I never use mostro lol

If you're going to buy BTC—or do the reverse—give it a try (using small amounts just to test it out) and let me know how the experience goes. Have you ever used @inp2p?

reply

Having disputes resolved within a reasonable timeframe is something to consider... good job, MostroP2P.

reply

A specific timeframe is established for resolving disputes after analyzing the evidence presented by both parties.

reply

A few days ago, I had to file a dispute, and it was resolved quite quickly.

reply

It’s great that your experience was positive and that you’re sharing it with the community here; there really is a set timeframe for resolving a dispute.

That's how it should be, a solver is the true solution to the dispute

reply

The mediator analyzes the situation, examines the evidence, and rules in favor of the party that is right (that is their job).

It is worth noting that when a dispute arises, the administrators wait to hear from both parties before making a decision.

reply

It’s a democracy... both sides need to be heard and evidence presented before a decision is made; it is worth noting that the node administrator is a respected figure in the community.
