Ink Protocol aimed at the decentralization of markets, allowing users to list an item for sale without the fear that their profile will be removed from the site.
Chang spoke about the principle of the Protocol:
“Ink Protocol decentralized markets, allowing buyers and sellers to control their reputation, to choose a trading platform according to their favourites. This will allow them to securely pay for goods and services without relying on any centralized service provider”.
Protocol Listia allows users to list the same item on multiple trading platforms. Each listing will change as needed, ie after purchasing the product. The seller will no longer need to manually edit information about the listing.
