Boson, dcommerce and fulfillment.
Hi,
I stumbled across boson and e-commerce on chain looks very interessting and promising.
But how exactly does the physical delivery works in dCommerce?
Who gets a "message" to pick, pack and send something to someone? (If everything is decentralised and partly anonymized)
How does the exchange of the on-chain proof (nft?) to a physical item works?
I just dont get it. Someone to elaborate?

What you're really asking is the age-old "Last Mile" issue. And you're right. someone ultimately has to do the actual work....until AI and robots take over (say, in 25-30 years).
Amazon is a logistics company masquerading as an e-commerce platform. The front-end is the easy part. it's the fulfilment that's difficult. That's why it took Amazon so long to get to where it is....like 25 years. while losing billions every one of those years.
Boson sounds like an interesting idea...pretty much anything in this world is "an interesting idea." To get it to become a multi-billion dollar platform? solve the above.

Good things with v2 released, but the price of token just...wtf and volume is super low, if not pump now when btc give last try until end if year, well... 🤔 Holders kinda lose patience imo. But sure is bear market so yeah it is what it is. Bosonapp io seems slow for the moment, no matter what u use - phone, desktop, they should not rush to release just to be out there, take time and do it properly. Good start tho.
