Download OpenBazaar 2.2.3

OpenBazaar is an open source project for an e-commerce platform, or online shopping, with the big difference that there is no central point, like a company’s web store, but a p2p network in the background that links everything together. Payments between sellers and buyers are made via various cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, bitcoin cash and zcash.
