[bisq-network/proposals] Encourage usage of Bonded Reputation by calculating a score for all offers (#138)

This looks like a nice way to explore how Bisq v2 would work. There's one thing that worries me though.
Looks like this proposal is not considering trading volumes for each user: If I bond 1btc while I'm trading 20btc (in ten or more separate trades), the bond is not covering very much, while I guess that a bond of that quantity would guarantee me 5 stars in very little time. I suppose that this proposal does not intend to cover all possible costs, but if not, it would generate a false sensation of security. 

> The icon should indicate the maximum score if the user performs a bonded role for the DAO, since they are trusted by the DAO as a contributor.
Usually, bonded roles have high stakes for many time. There are not many contributors with bonded roles. Signalling them in the app is a good measure for their privacy? Unless this bond is already something everybody can know matching Bisq client's information, this doesn't add very much value (they would already have 5 stars) while is compromising privacy.
Also, locked bonded role is supposed to cover the expense of mismanagement of their role. The contributor should lock another separate bond for trading. There could be a discount in the price of the Bonded Reputation.

>For risky payment methods, such as F2F cash trades, we could require minimum Reputation Scores to create offers for certain countries.
F2F payouts are very difficult to judge because there's no way to provide reliable proof of payment, so DAO wouldn't have a way to decide what to vote. The only way bonded reputation would make sense for this payment method is if both traders agree to a mutual assured destruction protocol, meaning both of them should lose something if one of them wants, and that could be done just with trade deposits.
