# CitySats.com
A website that helps you find buyers/sellers of bitcoin in your local
neighbourhood.
## High level overview
CitySats.com is a site similar to [leafedout.com](https://leafedout.com/),
except for buyers/sellers of bitcoin. The site is very simple, you are presented
with a customised Google map showing all the buyers/sellers of bitcoin in your
local neighbourhood. Each user on the platform has a profile that includes
reviews, the price that they are willing to buy/sell bitcoin and how much, their
location, their operating hours and contact information.
It's important to note that this site does not facilitate transactions between
users, or custody user funds.
## Maps
This site using the Google Maps API to display maps with custom markers for
buyers and sellers. The website checks the user's location on load and pinpoints
the map to the user's location.
The user must have an account to create a listing.
## Profile
The site has two profile types: buyers and sellers.
Profiles include the following details:
- A location
- The amount of coins that they are willing to buy/sell
- The price at which they are willing to buy/sell
- Contact information, such as their Wickr, WhatsApp or telegram details
- Their hours of operation
- Reviews and a star rating
- An alias
- Verification tick (should pay a small fee)
Anyone can create a profile by signing up.
## Important details
- Users should be warned against scams by refusing PayPal
- The site aims to support bitcoin only, no alt coins
- Users should be strongly encouraged to check reviews and trade in cash
## Advantages over other platforms
- No KYC
- Easy to meet buyers/sellers in your location
- Trades can be done face to face, with superior privacy, confidence and fewer
restrictions
- The website is not facilitating trades or holding user funds (both a
security and legal advantage)
- A feedback system enables buyers and sellers to trade with confidence
- The government cannot claim that the website administrator is a money
transmitter
- It circumvents banking restrictions on purchases of bitcoin
