In the last couple of hours we have laid out the groundwork for the very first live instance of Haveno called Reto.

We have set up multiple seednodes and have trusted arbitrators.

We expect to be able to provide simple instructions on how to join Reto within the next 24 hours, after which we will hopefully see the first trades happen!

Join our SimpleX group to stay updated:

There are instances of Haveno? Isn't it p2p?

Yes, but the main developers did not want to risk getting arrested for running the network. So they just released the software and said to the community, here, have at it. So instead of one large network there can be several small networks and eventually I think it will turn into a meta client where the client can just view all networks at once and you can pick a trade on whichever network you wish and see who the arbitrators are and so on and which network it's from.

Thanks for explaining. Double-decentralized :)

Can we make a Matrix or Session group to track this instead? Here's what a comparison of Session to SimpleX said: "To summarize – SimpleX is a broken and messy thing, but it is very cool." I don't use a smartphone very much and desktop apps that work well are few and far between. It seems like everyone is trying to drag me to their favorite messenger without providing any additional benefits in anonymity and security. I wouldn't mind if SimpleX had binary installers for more distro's, but that territory rarely gets covered adequately in early adoption.

Yes, because people treat messenger choices as a popularity competition.

Look how many people I got to switch to crapware just because they wanted to chat with me! I must be super socially powerful! Woo hoo! Meanwhile, the technical consequences of this strategy are... predictable: crapware.

Opt out of all the noise and just stick to IRC.
