I work on OB.

I can't speak for the team, but my take is that the more the merrier. We
want competition in the decentralized market space.

I don't know much about this specific attempt other than the article
itself. It uses an altcoin, which substantially limits the number of
people that can use it. The marketplace itself isn't coded (at least I
can't find the source) and it's easy to talk about building a
decentralized marketplace, but as we've found out, very difficult to
execute. The UI looks nice at least, and that's not trivial.
