Maybe we should add more text to the headlines:
> WHY
> Bisq trading is currently decentralized, but Bisq's funding and decision-making is not.

Suggestion: 
"Why does Bisq need a DAO? 
A decentralized exchange like Bisq requires to be censorship resistance in all aspects. The trade protocol and the P2P network have achieved that to a high degree. The way how contributors are compensated for their work and how decisions are made need to meet that criteria as well to ensure that Bisq can develop its full potential." (probably too long....)

> WHAT
> The DAO enables Bisq to manage funding and decision-making without the confines of a corporation or other legal entity, keeping Bisq stateless & sovereign.

Suggestion: 
"What is the Bisq DAO? 
The Bisq DAO is the decentralized model to enable the transfer of revenue in form of the trading fees from the users of Bisq to those who build and maintain Bisq. Voting has a central function in the DAO not only for compensating contributors but also for decision making."

> HOW: DECISION-MAKING
> With no CEO or central leadership team, DAO voting (social consensus) is what directs project strategy.
> HOW: FUNDING
>  With no financial accounts to hold revenue, the BSQ token is what distributes value from traders to contributors

Maybe reduce it to one point

Suggestion: 
"How does the Bisq DAO work?
At the heart of the Bisq DAO is BSQ - a Bitcoin based colored coin token. The Bitcoin blockchain is used for notarizing meta data which is distributed over the Bisq P2P network. All Bisq applications are nodes in the Bisq DAO network and are validating the consensus rules."


Maybe we can add something with voting in the "Contributors" section? Thought not sure if that gets too much if not mentioned before? 

>Traders
>When the DAO is live, you'll be able to pay trading fees with BSQ.
>by buying BSQ with BTC, you'll be paying Bisq contributors for their work
>BSQ trading fees are much lower than BTC trading fees
>you can still pay trading fees with plain BTC if you like

Suggestion: 
"Traders:
When the DAO is live, you'll be able to pay trading fees with BSQ.
- if you pay trading fees in BSQ instead of BTC you get a hefty discount
- contributors are selling their BSQ on Bisq. By buying BSQ from them, you support the Bisq DAO
- Trade fees are distributed to all BSQ stakeholders by "uncoloring" BSQ back to BTC - thus all stakeholders will enjoy a value increase of their BSQ. Our way to distribute revenue.
- if you are not convinced yet, no worry you can stick with paying the fee in BTC 

> Contributors
> When the DAO is live, you'll receive BSQ for your work.
> do valuable work, request compensation, receive BSQ
> sell BSQ to traders for BTC to get paid
> do more work, grow the network, and do it all again!

Suggestion: 
"Contributors:
When the DAO is live, you'll earn BSQ for your work.
- do valuable work, request compensation in BSQ, sell BSQ to traders
- partizipate in voting about compensation requests of other contributors or any other open requests for making a decision about any change in Bisq
- enjoy the most permissionless, non hierarchical and global work place"
