Lots of demand for Wasabi's Buy Anything Button, we need more concierge agents to handle all the requests.
If you're looking for a job to stack more sats, this is it!

I'm intrigued but not convinced. Your message reads like a great success but I could also read it like "people are pressing the button and nothing happens". Have a link to how this works? I'm far more inclined to press such a button than to make it work.
Here's a long podcast about it

Basically, you tell a company what you want, the company buys it as intermediary, and you then buy the good from the company with bicoin directly.
It's a simple chat interface, but with Wasabi's Tor magic as a layer of protection.
It works great for items > 1000$, like computers, cars, flights and hotels etc.
I watched another walk-through:

and wonder who the counter-party is. Apparently it's ShopinBit which is an EU entity based in Poland. They look quite solid and privacy-oriented but I would fear that if the concierge thing doesn't get decentralized, they could come under pressure to add tons of KYC.
Guess Wasabi including the button will be a good thing to have a head start once they fall as a backend for the button and people really want it to work in a decentralized way.
Yeah, decentralization is bloody difficult...
Nice to see. It’s a cool feature.
