#3 Front running the milk market 🥛 | Open Markets Podcast

In this episode of the Open Markets Podcast, Eric FJ and Sync sit down with Calvadev — a true OG in the open markets movement — for a powerful conversation on decentralized commerce, freedom tech, and why Nostr could reshape the future of e-commerce. https://invest.timestampfinancial.com/offering/shopstr/details [https://invest.timestampfinancial.com/offering/shopstr/details] https://primal.net/p/nprofile1qqsdxm5qs0a8kdk6aejxew9nlx074g7cnedrjeggws0sq03p4s9khmq5n372u [https://primal.net/p/nprofile1qqsdxm5qs0a8kdk6aejxew9nlx074g7cnedrjeggws0sq03p4s9khmq5n372u] https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsrskxuk0dz77cv2c4kg5um75lnx9nq34hyw2nsy35jhny62pp65mchw0w9r [https://primal.net/e/nevent1qqsrskxuk0dz77cv2c4kg5um75lnx9nq34hyw2nsy35jhny62pp65mchw0w9r] They kick things off with major ecosystem updates, including the latest from Nostr Boutique, news on Plebeian Market auctions, and Eric’s announcement that Conduit is going fully open source under the MIT license. Calvadev also shares details on Shopster’s equity crowdfunding campaign on Timestamp, giving supporters a chance to invest in the future of open marketplaces. Plus, the team reacts to Shopify’s new AI toolkit and what it could mean for online sellers everywhere. From there, the conversation dives into Calvadev’s journey into decentralized markets — from the influence of Ross Ulbricht and Silk Road, to Bitcoin, GameStop, Nostr, and the founding vision behind Shopster. He breaks down the evolution of the protocol, the early design decisions behind the platform, and why tools like eCash are critical for private, peer-to-peer payments. But this episode goes beyond commerce. Calvadev also shares his passion for food freedom, including the fight for access to raw milk and the challenges independent farmers face under today’s regulatory systems. It’s a compelling look at how decentralized marketplaces can support not just entrepreneurs, but producers, families, and local communities. The episode wraps with a thoughtful discussion on monetization in decentralized marketplaces — from value-for-value models and onboarding with eCash, to building sustainable revenue without relying on traditional SaaS playbooks. If you care about open source, peer-to-peer markets, Bitcoin-native commerce, or the future of food and economic freedom, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.
