Mycelix Marketplace

What is Mycelix Marketplace and what is it for?

Mycelix Marketplace is a peer-to-peer marketplace built on Holochain, where buyers and sellers deal with each other directly instead of through a central operator. It is meant to give people a familiar way to list goods, trade and settle problems among themselves, with seller trust and dispute handling coming from the community rather than a company.

Mycelix Marketplace is published by the Luminous Dynamics team, which lists it alongside a Mycelix-Core protocol and a Mycelix website in the project's own README. Its stated aim is commerce without a central operator: buyers and sellers deal with each other directly, and no company sits between them running the shop.

The intended experience is familiar. Someone browses listings, looks at photos of an item, adds it to a cart, checks out and leaves a review. What differs is where the shop lives: listing and transaction records are meant to sit in Holochain's peer-to-peer data store, photos on IPFS, and a seller's trust would come from a reputation score built out of past trades. If something goes wrong, the design has a buyer file a dispute and community arbitrators vote on the outcome.

The README describes how to look at it from source — clone the project, install the front-end dependencies, run the SvelteKit app locally — and records that wiring up a real Holochain backend was still ahead, so the pages a developer sees work from the app's own data rather than a live network. The repository's status line now reads archived, which makes the code a design record rather than a maintained install.
