🌱 MyZubster: The Decentralized Ecosystem to Map the World with Monero and AI

A skill marketplace, a global map of plants and animals, private payments with Monero, and a future built together.

🧭 The Story

Hi, I'm Daniel Ioni, an independent developer from Rimini, Italy.

I'm 38 years old, I have a little cat named Chanel, and I strongly believe that we can build a better ecosystem than the one we've known.

MyZubster was born from this belief. It's an open-source project that combines:

```
🌍 Global mapping of plants, animals, and people

🔒 Private payments with Monero (XMR)

🤖 Human control over AI — AI is a tool, not a master
```

After months of development, MyZubster is live in production on an Aruba VPS and now has a new home:

👉 github.com/MyZubster-Ecosystem

🧱 What We've Already Built

The ecosystem consists of modular, working components:

Component Description Link

Gateway Monero payment engine, webhooks, monitoring Repo

Marketplace Platform for services and skills Repo

Android App Mobile client for mapping and payments Repo

Web App Web interface for the marketplace Repo

Documentation Guides for developers and users Repo

Animal Registry Decentralized animal registry Repo

All repositories have:

```
✅ Clear READMEs and status badges

✅ MIT License

✅ GitHub Actions (CI)

✅ Links back to the ecosystem
```

🗺️ The Next Step: Multi‑Category Mapping

We want to build an interactive map that shows:

```
🌿 Plants (verified by the community)

🐾 Animals (registered on the blockchain)

👤 People (service providers, local experts)
```

This map will be the visual heart of MyZubster. And we need help building it.

9 Script to import public datasets (GBIF, iNaturalist) MyZubsterGateway

10 Collaborative verification system for mapping data MyZubsterGateway

🤖 Escrow Multisig with AI (Bounties in XMR)

To make the marketplace secure and autonomous, we want to implement a 2‑of‑3 multisig escrow system, where:

```
Buyer holds key 1

Seller holds key 2

AI Agent (DeepSeek) holds key 3 and signs the fund release
```

Bounty issues (paid in Monero)

1 Integrate 2/3 multisig wallet with Monero 0.10 MyZubsterGateway

2 Create AI agent for multisig (third signer) 0.15 MyZubsterGateway

3 Escrow gateway to coordinate orders and signatures 0.08 MyZubsterGateway

4 Verification system for the AI (webhook & logs) 0.06 MyZubsterGateway

5 Integrate escrow with the marketplace 0.07 MyZubster-Marketplace

🌟 A Final Thought

```
"I don't want to operate with banks and similar projects anymore. I want to finish developing my platform and start repopulating what we already have in MyZubster, which is now empty."
```

This is my promise.

If you also believe a better world is possible, welcome aboard. 🌱
