TradeOS is a decentralized P2P trading platform designed to give users true control over their trades. Traditional centralized platforms control the rules, hold users’ funds, and decide trade outcomes. TradeOS, through a decentralized escrow protocol, allows users to control their own rules, reputation, and assets.
Our target users include global P2P traders, DAO members, and anyone seeking secure trading across multiple blockchains. TradeOS addresses challenges such as trust requirements for escrow, dispute resolution, and proof of delivery, providing a secure, trustless trading experience.
Web3 Advantages
Compared to traditional Web2 platforms, TradeOS offers several advantages:
-
Trustless trade matching: Users can trade without relying on centralized intermediaries.
-
Multi-chain escrow: Supports cross-chain transactions with unified identity management.
-
DAO-based arbitration: Disputes are resolved by community participation rather than a centralized entity.
-
On-chain proof of delivery: Every transaction can be verified on-chain for transparency and security.
TradeOS is more secure, open, and user-controlled than Web2 platforms like WhatsApp or PayPal.
How It’s Built
TradeOS is built on the Internet Computer (ICP), with the Trading Policy Engine at its core, enabling programmable, verifiable, and unstoppable trade logic. Key technical components include:
-
Escrow Protocol: zkTLS/TEE-powered decentralized escrow
-
Multi-chain Support: Unified identity management for cross-chain transactions
-
Languages: Motoko/Rust
-
Third-party Services: External AI for fair arbitration, HTTP outcalls to verify off-chain information
