Introduction
The blockchain technology with it's vast applications, especially in the developing countries, has provided a means in which transactions (at impossible speed) and efficient accuracy with minimum transfer fee and so many other amazing applications have created the perfect opportunity for trade and business exploits.
Imagine a steemy future where trade is done online with steem as a recognizable currency like bitcoin and ethereum. A state where by steem and sbd applications will help boost the price to a whooping 1 steem = $10 in the shortest possible time frame.
Unlike most unline stores, we have none willing to exchange steem and sbd for good and services in Nigeria and hence a void was created. A noticeable gap in the blockchain distribution of goods and services on online stores due to it's absence and the presence of a massive adoption of the blockchain technology especially blogs like steemit.com with programmes like Steemit In Nigeria and so many other meet ups aimed at populating this niche with the audience it requires.
An environment like this requires an abode where each country person, especially a place like Nigeria where people can ascribe comfort and access in the same word.
Popular stores in Nigeria which offer such services usually just over-inflate the prices of their goods and services and are not willing to go the extra mile (offer their services on the blockchain).
What My market is offering is bridging that gap and going the extra mile, which is offering the services of online trade on the blockchain or using the crytocurrencies as a means of online trade.
How we plan on operating
We plan on providing a cryptocurrency and fiat based online store where both currencies are accepted and valid as a means of trade.
We plan on revolutionizing the Nigerian online market such that the boring and conventional means of ordering and paying with cash such that cryptocurrency especially bitcoin and steem/sbd become useful in online transactions.
We are working on getting a fully operational site, whereby steemit users get a discount on purchases and non users pay the full price.
This will further drive more people onto the platform and create a win win scenario for everyone.
The site will be an online store where Nigerians on the platform where people can order goods like jewelries, shoes, bags, make ups and other accessories. Think of it as a one stop to all your online shopping solutions where you can put your cryptos to good use.
We should become operational by December 2017 or by January 2018. This is a project by:
This is the first of it's kind and plans are ongoing to get operations in full effect before February 2018, with the site currently being worked on by @leczy.
This site hopes to create employment for members of the platform to what we call a supply channel of suppliers across the different states in Nigeria. That way we hope to create an additional source of income for users of the platform.
The main aim is targeted at making the platform an abode for massive traffic from Nigeria. The is intended to create the next step in online shopping using the steem blockchain technology as a pivotal tool in development.
Hopefully in the nearest future, we might be talking of getting our own smart media token for customers and we might just be the first to introduce our own smart media token in Nigeria.
The truth is we just made online shopping more easy for all, let us help you do things at your convenience.
So many people have asked us why we are choosing to take a risk and add steem/sbd to our list of acceptable tenders knowing fully well that it is undervalued, well the answer lies in the question. It is an undervalued coin with so much potential yet to be harnessed, and we at my market hope to be among those who were willing to take the risk with the "undervalued" coin.
The future is in our hands and the future is now. We have started recruiting people from the platform as agents for my market and we hope to recruit more people. Steemit is more than blogging and my market is offering more than blogging opportunities to everyone.
One day people will look back and say steemit.com as well as the steem blockchain gave people the tool to change the world.

This is highly commendable effort... Add @dorthcreations to one of your vendors... It might just be the time to shift market away from the kongas and jumias
Indeed it might sir, we definitely hope to work with you sir.
Its a brilliant plan! I have been willing to do this but without much funding and resources, I haven't made much progress. Good to see someone has finally stepped-up to have ot done!
Thank you sir for that, we look forward to future patronage from you.
This is brilliant.. This is outstanding. Can't wait.
We can't also wait
Wow, this is astounding.... Kudos to you and keep up the good work.
I think it's really beautiful that more Africans are now starting to recognize the upsides of crypto.
We are going places
Indeed it feels good to try and incorporate cryptos especially steem into the African market.
With time all states in the country can also have branches of mymarket online mall for faster delivery of goods and services.
I bought from this idea!
Exactly, with time the entire country will see how steem/sbd can be as a cryptocurrencies for transactions, and @mymarket will be there to see that it does
Help @mymarket
This is certainly a step in the right direction. I hope you get the needed sponsors. Keep it up!
@eurogee
Thank you sir for your kind words
Wao!!! This pull up is quicker than I expected. At least for now, this is a whole new level no one would have thought of.
Well-done boss.
Thank you sir
Wow..
Anticipating this
Finally we can spend SBD without going through the stress of converting to naira
Exactly, we can spend the sbd without conversion...and steem too
Why-iiii his it I have so match gold and I emall everyone nobody wants-ss to have some.
opps a bit tongue in cheek but as a country I do hope it works but so many times it becomes a scam, I use to work in imports and exports and the amount of times I get the call to change the delivery address it never worked for me then the best one was I got an email from my cousins boss telling me about his problems with his money LOL.
Good luck and yes I do wish its time they got a real economy working.
Thank you sir, we definitely hope it works out
This is really a brilliant milestone feat. The world of crypto can only get better. A time could come when our ATMs here in Naija will perform transactions on crypto
Let's keep our fingers crossed on the ATM bit shall we
