I haven't thought much about it, it's just an idea that suddenly came into my head, maybe it's stupid, but I'll say it below. Feel free to trash the idea in the comments.

I thought of a wallet (balance), something like there is on some SMM panels. In this case, BHW would have methods to top up balance like crypto, credit card, webmoney, perfect money (paypal, maybe?), payoneer, etc.

You would top up money directly at BHW and pay for the Forum Marketplace services with that money. The money will be passed on to the seller after the service is delivered. If there are disagreements, a dispute can be opened and the money is held while the situation is reviewed by moderation.

The forum moves thousands of dollars monthly, I believe they could charge a small 2% fee from the transactions to help the forum grow and not depend almost exclusively on advertisers + jr vip.

I don't think this should be mandatory, i.e. Jr Vip sellers who want to remain as it is today, that's fine, but there could be some privilege (a green badge or something) for those who accept this new scheme, as it is safer for buyers and would generate additional financial resources to the forum. As well as making payments easier, as there would be more accessible payment methods.

I know it is something that is certainly not easy and would take months/years to integrate into the forum, but it is an idea, maybe it is repeated, I don't know, but I appreciate you reading this.
 
As I understand it, it will be a part of Marketplace 2.0 partly. But maybe I got it wrong, as many other dumb things I say and think .. =)
 
Many thanks for your faith in us but unfortunately this would require significant business procedural changes that are not in the plans at the moment. We intend to run a BHW escrow service in MP 2 but not a wallet as such ie we'll only hold the value of the transaction - not additional funds.
