I've never heard anything like it! I hope it shoots up. But I think it's better to view yourself in terms of the average user and how you present it to them. The platforms you listed are escrow services in the narrow sense. Purse.io is an Amazon shopping site, and it seems to have ceased to exist. Hodlhodl and Bisq are cryptocurrency exchange boards, yes, they are successful, but it's only an exchange there. I know microlancer.io, it looks like a job board for freelancers, but I don't see much traffic or good moderation there, and so it has degraded to a PTC system for referral advertising. I think it's worth studying the experience of all these sites to find a better way to promote your platform without stepping on the old rake. Either way, I sincerely wish you the best of luck!

Some bitcoin escrow software has achieved a degree of popularity, including purse.io, hodlhodl, and bisq. One thing those services don't have -- and lightningescrow does have, already (in closed beta) -- is a robust api that gives developers lots of control to create arbitrary escrow contracts for any purposes they want. So hopefully by being super dev-friendly we can be a service that developers build additional tools on top of, and if any of those get network effects, that boosts our popularity as well.

That's great! I'll be waiting
Hope you can do it! There were sites that worked on-chain, but they did not find popularity. How are you going to overcome this barrier?

Does anyone know a working escrow site with LN support?

We are working on lightningescrow.io, and we are launching later this year. 

Let me know if you have any questions
