What escrow does
When a trade opens, the seller's crypto is locked so it cannot be spent elsewhere.
The trade step by step
1. Open the trade
The buyer picks an offer and enters an amount.
2. Pay the seller
The buyer pays using the agreed method and marks the payment as sent.
3. Release
The seller confirms the money arrived and releases the crypto.
When something goes wrong
Either side can open a dispute and a moderator reviews the chat and evidence.
