That's what multi-sig contracts are for. I can provably lock money into an address in such a way that the money cannot be moved until you & I both agree to finalize the transaction. It's escrow with no 3rd party. That plus a web of trust network, & other smart contract forms of insurance, & the discipline of constant dealings all have the combined capacity to basically secure all forms of trade. The thing we really need is a way to do 2 party escrow via the lightning network or L2 ecash. It can be done via the base chain & on Liquid, but we really need full retail layer support.
