Sold a domain on Dan.com. Buyer used stolen PayPal. Sigh.

Just venting but also warning the Channel. Moved a premium Asset last month, buyer paid via PayPal, everything looked enterprise-grade on their End. Two weeks later chargeback hits, funds gone, domain already transferred. Our redundant feeds showed the transfer within hours. Marketplace protection is a joke, they defer to PayPal who defers to banks who defer to nobody. Now I am out the Asset and the Revenue. Considering crypto-only for future Transactions but the Sales Team hates the Friction. Anyone found a Marketplace with actual Seller-Protection or do I need to build my own Escrow?

This is why I ask which providers take XMR everywhere dan.com doesnt, sedo doesnt, your "enterprise-grade" sale just became a donation to a thief. Been crypto-only since 2023, lost one sale total vs three chargebacks before that

not your keys, not your coins
