[bisq-network/growth] Argentina ARS/BTC Market Maker Bounty 1000 $BSQ (#172)

[MwithM]

> I think Argentina is a "must have" market for Bisq. I know from facebook bitcoin group in Argentina (more than 40,000 members) that there is a lot of activity buying and selling bitcoin, and many people want to do it p2p, and they indeed do it just based on trust and other member´s references.

Bringing a laptop to a trade meeting is a barrier in secure countries. In Argentina this barrier must be higher. If we want F2F trading to be a real thing at Bisq, laptops should stay home (smartphone app could achieve that) and maybe we would need to have more flexibility with deposits for different kind of transactions (high deposits, over 100% for Mutual Assured Destruction and low deposits (15%) for OpenDime BTC payments).

> Many argentinians have accounts in the US, so they could access the BTC-USD pair, it could be a good way to let them try Bisq in a more liquid market (less frustrating), and once they make a few transactions and get motivated, they might be more willing to participate in BTC-ARS (or even make some basic arbitrage given USD restrictions on the country)

Yes, that's it. Study and explain how to trade USD from Argentina to create happy Bisq users who then will try to trade ARS.
