Zenland - on-chain escrow on Ethereum. Where should we post? - Zenland - Mar 7, 2026
What's up HF,
We're Zenland - a decentralized escrow protocol on Ethereum. Funds are held by smart contracts, no person touches the money. Listed on DefiLlama, contracts verified on Etherscan, $300K+ processed in V1, V2 just launched - fully on-chain.
We just upgraded to L33t and are planning to invest in advertising here. We want to be part of this community properly, not just drop a thread and disappear.
Before we do anything, wanted to ask you guys:
1. Which section fits best? Crypto Currency? Marketplace Discussions? Premium Sellers? Somewhere else?
2. What makes you trust a new service on HF? We know the forum has its own Contracts system - how does that work in practice, and would an on-chain alternative interest you?
3. Would you use smart contract escrow? Funds locked in a contract on Ethereum, verifiable on Etherscan. No KYC, no sign-up, just connect wallet. 1% fee capped at $50.
Any advice on the right way to enter this forum appreciated.

As far as I am aware, Omniscient will not allow escrow services. Middleman services are allowed but that too with his approval.
I have tagged him to bring this to his attention. Hopefully, you will get an official answer soon.

Thanks for the heads-up! Just to clear up any potential confusion: we don't handle trade disputes directly. The Trusted members of HF would still manage those. We are strictly just the smart contract protocol.

A middle-man is an Escrow service.
This is a sticky in HF Suggestions forum...

I'll try to clarify the stance.
HF isn't going to create crypto wallets to hold funds of members for deals. Blockchain does have the potential to be a decentralized Escrow and HF could potentially integrate a solution that's decentralized. I don't want wallet keys of funds even if just 3-ring-signature. I view it as a very serious legal and financial risk.
If Zenland is offering some escrow solution and he can do some magical integration using our API, I'm more than happy to allow it and even assist if additional coding is required to make it happen.
