Had a great time representing at the Bitcoin Market yesterday! 🥳

Shoutout to the @nprofile1q... and @npub1eq8we... community for showing out and creating an awesome atmosphere of vendors and makers sharing value for value and creating a circular economy right here in Hampton Roads 🎉

It was great getting to share how our platform helps people keep more of their wealth by lowering the transaction cost of buying or selling their homes 🏠 📱

Can’t wait for the next one!

We’re getting closer, while every day is definitely an uphill battle, things are starting to feel different

The momentum is building

If anyone you know is looking to save thousands on commission fees then they buy or sell, let them know VroomBrick.com is option!

For those unfamiliar, the cold start problem is the concept that networks are most difficult to grow early on, before there are many users on a given network to engage with one another and exchange value.

Similar to both bitcoin and nostr, at the start there is little to no momentum because an open source protocol (like any other budding entity) is subject to the bounds of network effects: the more active users on a given network, the greater the opportunity to exchange value and fuel growth

We had a great discussion on this today where we broke this down and determined what it meant for our company and how we could change up our methods so that we could transition from stage 1 (the cold start problem) to stage 2 (the tipping point)

Our main takeaways that we were left with at the end of our discussion was 2-fold:

1) we need to analyze our own data from past transactions on our platform, and determine where/why early users left our platform (either to buy/sell with a real estate agent instead, or to stop trying altogether)

2) we need to niche down, back to our military roots where it all began

We’re veteran founded and owned, and somewhere along the way we worried that if we did not expand our brand to appeal to a wider audience we would lose out on potential users

What we realized today was that if we’re ever going to appeal to a wider base then we need to hone in and FOCUS and do a specific thing, really well, for a niche audience who we can solve a BIG problem for

For us, that problem is military service members, veterans, and their families losing equity when selling their homes over short timeframes when they relocate or PCS. Frequent moves lead to disproportionate fees, and our software helps our military sellers keep more money in their pocket that would otherwise be lost to high commission fees.

Looking forward to the path ahead, it genuinely feels good to find this level of focus!

We may have just had a breakthrough today when doing a trading on Andrew Chen’s “The Cold Start Problem”

Documenting this journey from the inside, I genuinely feel like were onto something

It’s time to go back to our roots and LOCK IN 🫡 🫡🫡

Same here! Trying to work towards creating a circular economy of value for value exchanges

It’s definitely an experience to on one hand be in fiat world all day and on the other know that this world exists and that you’re in between polar opposites

We’ll get there! One sat at a time 🤝

In full transparency, most transactions on our platform happen with one unrepresented party (our users) and one party working with a real estate agent

We HAVE facilitated a small handful of transactions that were peer-to-peer by two parties who were not represented by real estate agents

This is what I want to see more of 💯

We’ve built the tools, now we just need more awareness that this is possible! Most people think they need an agent but when it comes down to it all you really need is a closing attorney (which we partner with for on-demand access) and the willingness to learn the process

We built our product as a bridge between those who want to do everything themselves (I’m sure some of this crowd is on here) and those those want an agent to do everything and pay them in commission fees

We’re basically FSBO for buyers/sellers who want their showings and inspections automatically scheduled for then with timely reminders and their contracts automated (think TurboTax for real estate, withOUT the lobbying)

We’re fans of freedom tech and we want to normalize lowering transaction costs by increasing efficiency, and ultimately the dream would be to empower people to do that in bitcoin

We’ve got a long ways to go, but we’re happy to be here and can use all the support we can get! If you have ideas or suggestions reach out!

Real talk, let’s normalize buying and selling homes peer-to-peer using bitcoin 🤝

Has anyone here done that?
