+When the seller receives your payment, they'll mark it as received in Bisq. Bisq will then complete the trade by releasing the bitcoin you bought to you (along with your deposit).
+
+You can keep your new bitcoin in a built-in Bisq wallet (click "Move Funds to Bisq Wallet"), or send it somewhere else (click "Withdraw to External Wallet").

+Congratulations. You've just completed your first trade on Bisq!

+If Bitcoin's motto is "be your own bank" then Bisq's motto is "be your own exchange." It's an exciting concept, it's growing fast, and it's something you'll want to follow.

Agree, same basic tone comments as above. This strays from the mark of helping a fellow (perhaps newly born) cypherpunk find their way through the software, to something more didactic, even slightly condescending (though I'm sure you did not mean for it to land that way).

It's definitely good that we point users at the best ways to stay in touch, and even good that we let them know that Bisq is still growing. The motto stuff was a bit of an experiment in the Phase Zero doc. I still generally like it, and there might be a place for it in this doc, but I think it's slightly out of place here in the `Stay in touch` section.
