Selling 3D Prints Using HIVELIST

in #hivelist4 years ago (edited)

In the introduction post for the ThreeD (3D) Printing Community I stated maybe someday in this community a system could be set up for members who want a 3D print to pay members with 3D printers cryptocurrency for the job.

It looks like something similar to that possibility is emerging. A recent post on the HIVELIST Classifieds Community has announced HiveCommerce websites. This seems promising for anybody interested in trying to market 3D prints on the Hive platform.

It's not getting commissioned for a 3D printing job (yet). Or maybe it will be since posting ads directly to the Hivelist community from a HiveCommerce website will be allowed. I imagine though it can easily be used as a print-on-demand service for preexisting designs.

Quoting from the post by @hivelist

This is a new service and we are working on our offerings. The base package will be a Hivelist.io subdomain site (example: https://yourname.hivelist.io). Your store will have the same look and feel as hivelist.io, but will have your information logged into the backend to connect with your Hive account and Hive payments plugin.

If I am understanding this then as an example if I have the basic hivelist.io subdomain https://holovision.hivelist.io I could offer to sell something like a plastic beehive with the Hive brand logo on it made from PLA.

Because it's a 3D print being offered for sale it doesn't necessarily have to be made until after an order is placed. It would probably be a good idea though to have a few of each offered product already printed just in case so orders can be guaranteed in a timely manner.

The post states that a HiveCommerce website can accept "Hive, HBD, and very soon Hive-Engine tokens". I assume that the plural tokens means not just LIST token but any Hive-Engine token desired can be accepted by a HiveCommerce website.

Sort:  

All of the other assumptions are correct. You will have your own store that you will be able to list what ever product you want. When the store is created, you will get your login credentials and an instructional video on how to use and add products and posts to the site. We are working on all the details and hopefully will have it out in the next couple of days.

Yes, according to the developer that is working on the Hive payment plugin for woocommerce, we are supposed to be able to accept any HE tokens we want. When setting up a site on Hivelist, you will have the choice to accept any of the tokens you wish, although LIST will be included by default on anything we build. For example, for thelogicaldude.com, I plan on accepting LIST, WEED, LOTUS, LEO, BEE, and PAL. Although on the primary Hivelist store, we are going to only be accepting Hive HBD and LIST, you know being our token and all.

This is a nice idea@holovision (69)
You did great
