I have already mentioned it on occasion, but I think the best solution to implement an escrow system is to use the most decentralized system that exists now to buy BTC, P2P way: Bisq. Why invent the wheel, if it already exists?
If Bisq implemented the option to change BTS or BitUSD by FIAT, then the purchase can be moved to the Bitshares DEX and the problem would be solved. There is not much danger that Bisq can remove volume from the DEX of bitshares, since the vast majority of Bisq's trade is exchange of BTC with FIAT, functionality that does not exist in the DEX. The exchange of cryptocurrencies in Bisq is wallet-to-wallet, and of very low volume. I do not think it could interfere with the type of smartcoins trade and low fees of the DEX.
Bisq can now trade with any type of cryptocurrencies, so it seems to me that the best approach for this project would be to contact the Bisq dev and propose a collaboration. Both projects would add synergies and win, so that a p2p-bridge would be available immediately. Precisely Bisq has modified its connections Tor to be able to work in mainland China and it turns out that there Bitshares has a good market. Makes sense.
