The same story over again, for an traditional escrow marketplace:
1. Build reputation (let me remind that this market was not only a market but also a third party escrow service – so they had shit load of money in escrow, being an escrow service)

4. Get more users
5. Stop Withdrawals
6. Poof.
7. Have fun.
*8. Optional – Say you got hacked
