To be honest, I don't like the creator's policy on scammers; it leaves a lot to be desired.
This post is from another user.
My reasons:
- On Robosats, everyone who places or accepts an order is serious: both parties put down a deposit before starting.
- In this group, your messages aren't deleted for talking about scams. In lnp2pbot, for example, they are. They delete your message and the admin talks to you privately, so that no one else sees that there are scams.
- The Robosats coordinators are much more reliable than those at lnp2pbot. They are more empathetic and open to understanding situations. Those at lnp2pbot only want hard evidence, and if you can't prove a scam 100%, the scammer continues to operate even though it's obvious that they are a scammer.
Interestingly, lnp2pbot has a reputation system, but when it comes to resolving a dispute, that is irrelevant to them.
- Robosats coordinators are open to modifying the commissions for the channels you open with them. Negrunch, the lnp2pbot admin, not only sets a commission of 500 ppm on a channel he did not open, but also refuses to change it.
- Robosats is the platform that charges the lowest commissions:
2% peach
0.6% lnp2pbot
0.6% mostro
0.45% hodlhodl (with referral)
0.2% robosats
- Robosats is the only platform I know of where the scammer loses out if they get caught. This doesn't happen on hodlhodl, lnp2pbot, or any other platform, as none of them work with a deposit prior to communication. On all platforms, there are constant unsuccessful attempts to scam, as there is no cost involved.
- Robosats is the only platform with internal competition and incentives for its coordinators to do their best.
For all these reasons, I consider Robosats to be the best and safest platform for exchanging Bitcoin for money.
