About meshMKT®
The Off-Grid EVERYTHING Marketplace
meshMKT is a new kind of marketplace — one that doesn’t rely on the grid, the internet, or centralized control. Built on lightweight mesh networks like Meshtastic LoRa, meshMKT brings the spirit of Craigslist and eBay into the off-grid world, where communities can buy, sell, trade, and share directly with each other.
We believe trade is the backbone of community. Whether it’s tools, food, jobs, gigs, services, or just a neighbor’s notice, every exchange strengthens local resilience. meshMKT exists to give people that freedom anywhere — even when the lights go out, the towers go down, or the big platforms aren’t there.
Our Philosophy
- Community First: meshMKT isn’t about squeezing profit — it’s about building connections. The more people set up nodes, the stronger the market becomes for everyone.
- Decentralized by Design: Each node runs the marketplace software locally. No servers, no gatekeepers, no one pulling strings.
- Emergency-Ready: In a disaster, meshMKT doubles as a lifeline. It becomes a functioning town marketplace and communications hub when traditional networks fail.
- Uncontrollable Growth: The off-grid market is the blind spot big data and corporations can’t see or control. Our growth comes from people adopting meshMKT where it matters most — locally, independently, freely.
How It Works
- Set up a meshMKT node in your town.
- Connect via the app or your radio.
- Browse, post, and trade — no internet required.
Every new node expands the coverage map and strengthens the network, town by town.
Why It Matters
Big platforms profit by controlling attention and data. meshMKT flips that model upside down. By empowering people to run their own marketplaces, we’re creating resilient local economies that can thrive no matter what happens to the grid.
This is not just about trade. It’s about freedom. It’s about resilience. It’s about building something together that no one can take away.
