The marketplace with no middleman.
Freeport is a decentralized, peer-to-peer marketplace for rides, services and goods — built on Nostr. No company in the middle, no server to run, no commission, no account. Your keys, your price.
Freeport is a decentralized, peer-to-peer marketplace for rides, services and goods — built on Nostr. No company in the middle, no server to run, no commission, no account. Your keys, your price.
A real peer-to-peer network — not another platform taking a cut and holding your data.
Deal directly with the other person and agree your own price. No platform fee, no surge pricing.
Your identity is a secure key created on your device — no email, no phone-number account, no password.
Negotiate openly with a built-in estimator. Zero commission means more stays with you.
Messages are end-to-end encrypted. Listings carry only a coarse, neighborhood-level location — never your exact spot.
The app has no server of its own — it talks straight to open, public Nostr relays. Nothing for you to host, and no single company can shut it down, censor it, or sell your data.
A transparent, peer-rated karma system builds trust between strangers, with no central authority.
Post or browse, negotiate, done — all between you and the other party.
Request a ride or service, or browse what people nearby are offering.
Offers and counter-offers go back and forth privately until you both agree.
Confirm, swap contact details over an encrypted message, and meet up.
A full marketplace toolkit — self-custodial, encrypted, and yours. The newest pieces are opt-in: flip them on under Settings → Experimental.
Self-custodial Bitcoin Lightning + USDT wallet, derived from your Nostr key — one backup covers identity and funds. Your own lightning address, QR pay, and one-tap Pay on confirmed deals.
1:1 encrypted chat with voice messages, reactions, disappearing messages and in-chat payments — plus peer-to-peer audio/video calls with no call server in the middle.
Conditional Lightning payments (HODL invoices) on confirmed deals. The protocol enforces the lock — nobody ever holds the money in between, and unreleased funds auto-refund.
Third-party web apps run inside Freeport with your portable identity and wallet — sandboxed behind a permission firewall where every sensitive action needs your approval. Add any app by URL or QR.
Durable seller storefronts with a conversational checkout, and Lightning zap tipping on posts with verifiable receipts.
Describe what you need in any language and it drafts your post; incoming messages auto-translate. Runs entirely on your device — your words never leave it.
Market feeds in your Telegram groups, one-tap broadcast of group posts to the open network, and personal pings when something needs you.
iOS, Android, web, and desktop apps — plus the whole app as a single offline HTML file. 56 languages with full right-to-left support.
MIT-licensed, no investor deck. Any community can stand up its own market — own name, city, relays — by changing configuration, not architecture.
How far can pure P2P infrastructure go? Buyers, sellers, riders, drivers meet over Nostr, settle in Lightning or cash. Nothing in between needs permission to exist.
A P2P marketplace with a reputation system works. When people own their reputation, the market self-regulates.
A zero-fee exit that answers to no one puts a ceiling on how greedy the big platforms can get.
An open protocol, Claude Code as a pair programmer, no investor deck.
No operator, no cut. A protocol, not a platform. Run it or fork it.
That's the point, and the price. No support line, no refunds, no arbiter. Reputation and your own judgment are the whole safety net.
The full protocol: signed intents, encrypted negotiation, co-signed deal receipts, and reputation as a subjective quantity that makes fake identities weightless.
