<p><a class="user-mention" data-hovercard-type="user" data-hovercard-url="/users/chimp1984/hovercard" data-octo-click="hovercard-link-click" data-octo-dimensions="link_type:self" href="https://github.com/chimp1984">@chimp1984</a>  I agree that there must be better ways. We have done many experiments and should continue to try new things.</p>
<p>However I absolutely do not think you should focus on the trades, but rather on the fact that the market maker has kept live offers for more than a month and made efforts to attract users. Trades by themselves could be easily spoofed... but locking up funds for months in live offers and keeping Bisq running every day is a larger committment.</p>
<p>Also bear in mind that having earned 1000 BSQ that person is now incentivized to continue to use Bisq (if only to sell the BSQ) for a few months and normally will continue to attempt to start-up their local market as well as provide feedback on how to improve localisation efforts.</p>
<p>Is 1000 BSQ too much? should we ask for more work or more results? Maybe. I would still recommend that we honour this bounty and maybe change extant bounties as a result of this discussion.</p>
<p>I tend to think that it is better to ask for more work rather than reducing the bounty. We've tried smaller bounties before with little success.</p>
