0 sats \ 4 replies \ @Natalia OP 18 Jan \ on: [SELL] [16900 sats] The Art of Stacking ✌🏽 AGORA
Just created an opportunity to test with emeralize too, but the experience is average so far. 👀
As a creator
- need a mail to sign up and set up PW - when LN login?
- marketplace is not really showing your creation.
- the hosting is showing amazonaws, so it's in Amazon.
As a buyer
- also need to sign up with mail to create an account - too much friction.
- nowhere to look where the paid download in.
- the downloaded redirect was 404, and then who to ask for help?
The only nice thing I can see so far is that the sats goes directly to your LN wallet - curious why @bitcoinplebdev is using it?
Interesting, I didn't even share the link, but someone brought it there 👀 I hope he/she got the download file because the redirect link didn't work so well during my test. ( that's why I didn't share the link in public, but then I guess most likely brought by someone working or using Emeralize. )
I do like the auto notification from Emeralize with Alby tho! I wish other tools could auto notify too.t
- BTCpay - need to configure with Zapier.
- Lifpay - need to check manually...

And source identified! 🕵🏽
It turned out I got a shoutout from Emeralize - It's great that I found you here @santos, and I did some digging, nice knowing the story behind it and seeing someone so passionate about building the product.
emeralize's mission is to help individuals become the best versions of themselves and do what they love.
Ikigai: This is the way - there are quite some people who possess lots of real knowledge, and they can easily teach for a living while doing what they love. ( and I'm curious why named the platform Emeralize? )
However, here is some feedback for you: the current stage is too much friction for both sides 👀
Pros
- payment splitting
- auto withdrawal
- LN payment
- transaction history
cons
As a creator
- Need a mail to sign up and set up PW - why not LN login?
- Marketplace discovery is bad - it was even hard for me to get the ebook page before, but I figured out I could get it by clicking the ebook and then adding the number there.
- The Creator dashboard is confusing - having four options for uploading is too much, and I needed to check all of them before deciding which one to choose from - why not just one? Then creators can upload whatever they want, and I guess most are ebooks or vids, so basically two types? KISS.
As a buyer
- Need to sign up with mail to create an account too - it would be nicer if buyers didn't need to sign up at all.
- Nowhere to relook where the paid download is, and if the downloaded redirect was 404, where should people ask for help?
Others
- The design is a bit outdated, and the theme is really dark; maybe a lighter color helps the learning? Not sure did you checked out gumroad, they have a really lively design.
- Socials, where is Nostr? I think most Bitcoiners use Nostr or X.
- The hosting is showing Amazonaws, so it's in Amazon - isn't it better to ditch big tech?
Here is what I've so far, and thanks for building on LN. ⚡️
