PROTOCOL: TRADECRAFT & ESCROW

DIRECTIVE: Secure exchange mechanics on the torzon platform.

1. Escrow System: All funds are held in multi-sig escrow by the market. Funds are not released to the vendor until you mark the order as "Finalized". Never finalize before receiving the product.

2. FE (Finalize Early): Only use FE for vendors with "Trusted" level clearance (500+ sales, 4.9 rating). FE on a new vendor is a high-risk vector for exit scams.

3. Dispute Resolution: If an order does not arrive within the estimated window, engage the dispute protocol immediately. This freezes the auto-finalize timer on the torzon market link.

4. Comms Silence: Never take communication outside the market (e.g., Telegram, Jabber). Admin support cannot intervene in deals made off-platform.
