One concern I have about nostr marketplaces is anonymity. A lot of accounts here are anonymous, but if they buy a product on nostr, they’ll have to put a shipping address somewhere which could expose their location to the seller. Is there any known way around this?

Blind shipping

Granted, this still requires trusting a third party. No getting around that when you pay via BTC for final settlement, and still need to receive the product

How does that work? Never heard of it

Third party logistics company fulfills the order without the merchant knowing the customer’s address

So blind shipping to a PO Box is probably the safest bet then

Guess you gotta get a PO Box if you want to hide your address.

I'd assume the idea is wallet privacy, not necessarily identity privacy, if that makes sense. If I paid from say my main stack you'd know how much corn I hold. Seems lightning addresses this a bit.

It gets confusing when it comes to this part of bitcoin adoption for me.
