<p>For onboarding users (buyers without BSQ bonding).<br>
if we want to try buyers without BSQ bonding for small quantities, maybe we could try something rather manual to get a feeling of how much demand there is for it. Only very experienced Bisq users would do this kind of sell offers (maybe initially a controlled group) and would coordinate with the buyer and require him some proof of ownership through the chat <strong>before</strong> disclosing their payment data to the buyer. We could pick up some old ideas such as a digital signature</p>

<p>This is what I had in mind for Keybase. Keep it Simple Stupid, KISS Principle. This would allow for a simple small trades to take place with minimum complexity.</p>
<p>I did not think past this initial step. First need to make sure there would be a market for small trades. I think there would be.</p>

<p>What I had in mind was a model where the buyer trusts the seller for small quantities. No deposits and no locked BTC.</p>

<p>It would be great to see your proposal for this. My idea for the moment is just to set something up quickly on Keybase to see if there is a market. If their is I think proposals likes yours and <a class="issue-link js-issue-link" data-error-text="Failed to load title" data-id="725166630" data-permission-text="Title is private" data-url="https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/268" data-hovercard-type="issue" data-hovercard-url="/bisq-network/proposals/issues/268/hovercard" href="https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/268">#268</a> are the next logical steps.</p>

<p><strong>End of trade</strong></p>

<p><strong>Trade time:</strong> Less than 20 mins.<br>
<strong>POW:</strong> The chat above!<br>

<h3>What If's</h3>
<ul>
<li>Trade goes well. Everyone is happy. Particularly Buyer who is has had a great first experience of the Bisq community.</li>
<li>Buyer doesn't send payment, no problems seller doesn't send BTC. They are not bothered. This happens.</li>
<li>Seller doesn't send BTC, Buyer calls out seller, Seller loses reputation and possibly bond <g-emoji class="g-emoji" alias="disappointed" fallback-src="https://github.githubassets.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f61e.png">😞</g-emoji> This will likely never happen.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Time require to implement this alternative trading protocol</h3>
<p>One afternoon for v0.1. I can code this one myself <g-emoji class="g-emoji" alias="+1" fallback-src="https://github.githubassets.com/images/icons/emoji/unicode/1f44d.png">👍</g-emoji></p>
