Escrow Service

I am willing to act as an escrow for most transactions.

An escrow is a third party that both a buyer and seller trust who takes controls of the funds for a transaction in order to allow a buyer and seller who do not trust each other to trade.


The buyer/seller contacts me and lets me know the details of the trade, such as what is being bought, who the other party is, how long it should take to be delivered.

I will then send a PGP signed message to both buyer and seller, which includes this brief description of the trade, and an escrow bitcoin address.

Once the buyer funds the escrow address, I will confirm to both parties that the escrow has been funded and that the seller should now send the goods.

Once the buyer receives the goods and they are content with the trade, they will send me a message informing me to release the escrow payment to the seller.



All funds held in escrow by me are backed by my own personal funds. In the event something happens to funds I am holding in escrow, I will attempt to cover the loss personally.

For small transactions (<$500) I will be storing the Bitcoin on a hot wallet.

For larger transactions (>$500) I will be storing the Bitcoin on an airgapped wallet.

For very large transactions (>$20,000) the funds can be stored in a multisig 2-of-3 address along with the buyer and seller. More on how that works below. In addition to this I am willing to participate in a multisig transaction for any sized transaction. Multisig escrow is mandatory for transactions over $25,000 as I cannot personally guarantee transactions of that amount without a multisig setup.


For a normal escrow, I charge 1% of transaction amount + transaction fee for every payment I need to make. Typically I only need to make one payment (releasing the funds to the seller). I will confirm upfront the total fees I charge.
