What it is
Consumer marketplaces, retail, social selling.
Commerce is the edition most businesses meet first, because it is the one that touches the customer. Catalogue, stock, orders, pricing, returns and fulfilment sit on the same ledger as the payment, so a sale does not have to be reconciled against itself later.
Escrow is the part worth understanding. Funds are held and released on proof, which is what lets two parties who have never met trade without either going first. That single mechanism is the difference between a marketplace that works between strangers and one that only works between people who already trust each other.
Who buys it. Retailers, wholesalers, cooperatives and anyone selling to the public.
What it turns on
An edition types the whole deployment.
Every domain is present in the platform. An edition decides which of them are rendered to the public, which are operator tools, and which are not there at all.
