 HOW TO USE DOGECOIN WITH OPENBAZAAR OR GET PAID IN DOGECOIN FROM OPENBAZAAR


The Dash Times has a good tutorial to use an altcoin with OpenBazaar, so below I am copying and pasting that information and using Doge where Dash would be, as Shapeshift allows you to use Doge.



OpenBazaar enables peer-to-peer digital commerce, with the use of Bitcoin as its method of payment with an eBay style marketplace that utilizes the power of cryptocurrency is now available to download.  


The release comes after a public beta period which brought about different store fronts using the decentralized e-commerce protocol’s experimental Bitcoin testnet for transactions.

According to the developers the beta stage saw more than 25,000 across 126 countries worldwide with over 3,000 vendors. The catch here is currently OpenBazaar does not support Doge yet but thanks to a community member (solarminer of Dash) you can use Doge for OpenBazaar transactions.

How to receive Dogecoin with OpenBazzar:

-Get a bitcoin receive address (coinbase, circle, core, etc)  This is a backup.

-Get a receive address from your Dogecoin wallet

-Go to shapeshift.io with Bitcoin on left and Dogecoin on right.  

-Enter the bitcoin return address(optional) and Dogecoin address in your payment address, accept terms, and hit shift.

-Copy the bitcoin address the is created and paste that in OpenBazzar.

-The address will use the market rate and will not expire as long as you don’t put in a specific amount you want to shift.


To pay for an item in OpenBazzar with Dogecoin:

-Go to shapeshift.io. 

-Select Dogecoin on left and Bitcoin on the right.

-Create a Dogecoin receive address and put in the return address(optional).

-Enter the amount and address in bitcoin, accept terms, hit shift.

-Send your Dogecoin to the address and amount that is created below
