On August 29th, Decred (DCR/USD) introduced Bison Relay v0.1.8, a game-changing support system for e-commerce platforms that addresses the critical need for decentralization in the digital retail landscape.

Bison Relay's latest iteration, v0.1.8, signifies a crucial advancement in reshaping decentralized e-commerce and bolstering user empowerment.

Likened to a decentralized version of "Shopify," this pioneering platform is poised to redefine the e-commerce landscape. The update introduces novel features like pages, client-side filtering, and improved client backups.

Bison Relay emboldens users by embracing decentralization, instigating a transformative shift in online retail dynamics.

This transformative change carries profound ramifications for e-commerce enterprises and developers, bestowing them with amplified control, heightened privacy, and augmented security within an ever-fluctuating retail arena.

“With the latest release of Bison Relay, the platform continues its journey as an avant-garde alternative to the traditional web,” said Jake Yocomm-Piatt Decred's Co-Founder and Project Lead.

The absence of user accounts and minimal metadata eradicates typical censorship methods. Server visibility is restricted to encrypted data alone.

Version 0.1.8 introduces new features like pages, client-side filtering, and enhanced client backups.

At the heart of the release lies the "Simplestore" e-commerce infrastructure, designed to facilitate the sale of digital-only products such as images, videos, audio, and files.

Transactions occur through on-chain payments in DCR or the Decred Lightning Network.

Pages in Bison Relay mirror traditional web pages, organizing Simplestore information into interconnected pages.
