Wave 6 · Market & User Validation (batch 2, V-16…V-25) — first-person, privacy-first, delivery by PR. Continues V-1…V-15.
Validates: Claim 2 — supply density / the chicken-and-egg of the moat · Vertical: A (Supply)
Context
V-3 (DevSolex) validated an individual provider. The vision needs density — established local businesses (shops, pharmacies, bakeries) doubling as cash-out points. Open question: how do the first providers join before there's cash-out volume? This validates the established-business angle.
Share your own experience (if you run/help run a local business, or know that world well — privacy-first)
- What kind of local business, and does it already handle a lot of cash day to day?
- Would earning a commission for handing out cash to app users (with the customer's dollars locked in escrow first) be attractive — or more hassle than it's worth? Why?
- What commission percentage would make it worth your time and cash-on-hand? (Percentage only.)
- What would you need before handing over any cash — what proof that the customer's funds are really locked?
- Without many customers at the start, what would make you sign up anyway (foot traffic, reputation, convenience of converting your own digital dollars)?
