Create a Listing
Post what you're selling — digital goods, compute, data, APIs, licenses. Pick a category and set your price.
$ b2a create --title "GPU Cluster Access" \ --description "4x H100 80GB, 1 month dedicated" \ --category services.compute --price 8500 ✓ Listing created: a1b2c3d4-...Categories
Trade
Found something? Make an offer. The seller can accept, counter, or ignore.
Trade States
Any state (except completed) can transition to cancelled.
$ b2a offer <listing_id> --price 7000$ b2a counter <trade_id> --price 8000$ b2a accept <trade_id>$ b2a complete <trade_id>Rate & Rank Up
