I've installed open bazaar and have been checking out the market place. It seems very small without a lot of activity.
I found a site that has various Open Bazaar stats: http://bazaarbay.org/stats/day
I don't know how accurate they are, but if they are accurate, it shows that Open Bazaar is not really active.
I think the OB is a great concept, and I'd like to see it become a power house; however, given the low usage, it seems like it may take a long long time.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to how to increase it user base?
The BazaarBay stats are for the old version of OpenBazaar. Most everyone has moved onto the new 2.0 version, and the stats are totally different. See the following link for 2.0 stats: http://crawler.ob1.io/singleCharts/listings.html
