Meta Description:
Learn how MiddleM secures peer-to-peer crypto deals using non-custodial escrow, no KYC, and multi-chain support to eliminate trust risks in P2P transactions.
Peer-to-peer crypto trading has always carried one major risk: who sends first? Whether you’re buying an NFT, hiring a freelancer or closing a private OTC deal, someone has to trust the other party. MiddleM eliminates this problem entirely.
What is MiddleM?
MiddleM is an automated crypto middleman system for peer-to-peer deals. Rather than trusting a stranger with sending payment first, both parties rely on MiddleM to hold funds and release them once the agreed conditions are met.
How it works:
Both parties agree on terms (crypto, amount, who sends/receives)
The sender deposits funds into a secure escrow address
Once the sender confirms the deal is complete, funds are released to the receiver
Optional warranty period protects against disputes
Key Features:
— Non-custodial: Funds are held in cryptographically-secured escrow addresses, not a company wallet
— No accounts required: Access your deal via a unique private URL
— No KYC or auth: Complete anonymity for both parties
— Multi-chain support: BTC, LTC, ETH, USDC, USDT (Ethereum & Solana)
— Warranty protection: Optional holding periods from 3 days to 1 year
— Real-time confirmations: Track blockchain confirmations live
Step 1: Create a New Ticket
Start your secure deal by creating a ticket on MiddleM.
Action: Visit middlem.com and click “Create a Ticket”. You’ll receive invite code to share with the other participant.
Step 2: Select Your Cryptocurrency
Both parties must agree on which cryptocurrency to use.
Action: Type your selection (e.g., “BTC” or “USDC”) and confirm with “correct”.
Step 3: Assign Roles
Every deal has two roles:
Buying an item? Buyer = Sender, Seller = Receiver
Hiring a freelancer? Client = Sender, Freelancer = Receiver
Warning: Selecting the wrong role may result in loss of funds. Double-check before confirming.
Step 4: Enter the Deal Amount
Specify the USD value of the deal.
Action: Enter the amount (e.g. “10000” for $10,000). Both parties must confirm by typing “correct”.
Step 5: Fund the Escrow
Once terms are confirmed, MiddleM generates a unique address.
Action: The Sender sends the exact crypto amount shown to the escrow address. Scan the QR code or copy the address and the amount.
Step 6: Wait for Confirmation
MiddleM tracks blockchain confirmations in real-time.
Action: Wait for the required confirmations. You’ll see a live counter (e.g. “3/6 confirmations”).
Step 7: Complete the Deal
When the sender is satisfied (item received, service delivered), they release the funds.
Action: The Sender types “complete”. The Receiver provides their wallet address and confirms it.
Step 8: Receive Payout
Funds are automatically sent to the receiver’s wallet.
Action: Track the payout using the explorer link provided.
