ebay amazon shoppe make money digital id avoid kyc

Here is my latest idea. Nothing has gone into this apart from a spontaneous thought so don't expect anything more yet.

Whether we like it or not, people these days are reliant on online shopping for essential supplies. Lately, the access thereto is increasingly gated by digital id infrastructure such as digital banking and account verification flows. This is the reality in so many markets across the world and its often crippling for people who are for some reason excluded from the digital id system.

Enter Anon Supermarket (call it something else if you want). The idea is that we dropship any (suitable) goods or services from digital id gated system to pseudonymous users for xmr, using multisig wallets and reputation for security. Instead of holding its own money / digital id, anon supermarket delegates orders to peers with access to the system and money to spend. In return these peers get a KYC-free source of crypto at a good price. I suppose the exchange rate could be dictated by market makers on either side. I expect that users will pay a premium to access the gated market on demand, making this a potential way to get no KYC xmr for LESS than spot.

The atomic swap setup would be similar to haveno, except transactions are settled by delivery of a third party service rather than direct payment.
This would be fundamentally different to xmrbazaar because instead of directly buying from peers you are asking peers to buy something for you in exchange for crypto. This means that anything on ebay, for example, is instantly available.
One down side is that your address will be exposed. I think this is alright for shoes and parts and shit even if not for cars and gold and shit, but that's just an opinion.

Effectively, this is proxy shopping on Amazon. Most sites that have done this ran into issues or the operator just stopped being reliable (AnonShop).

The other concept similar was Purse.io from 2014 where random Chinese people would buy Amazon products for customers in exchange for Bitcoin. You would put out a wish list and they would buy it and get the Bitcoin. All these models are brittle and the only thing that lasted was gift and prepaid card sellers.

Really, people just want to be able to buy things on Amazon with Monero.
