I like the ideas on [the Deposits](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/pull/4347) pull request because it still leaves the option to use the 15% security deposit and only **suggests** a security deposit based on current volatility.

But still, [sellers stop answering](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/issues/4126) and they can [omit mediator's suggestion](https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq/issues/4162): that's as critical as the security deposit, maybe even more. Symmetric deposits won't help buyers if sellers are not accountable when they don't follow the trading protocol. To fix this, a [software](https://github.com/bisq-network/proposals/issues/224#issuecomment-646190073) lock seems good ennough

Furthermore, I'd like to study a few changes for arbitration:
1. Reduce timelock trigger time, to reduce collateral needs and let users get back their money earlier.
2. Copayment for arbitration, to make the costs of arbitration more explicit.
3. Allow more than 1 arbitrator, to reduce the high amount of capital needs for this role.

We should keep discussing at #proposals channel the pros and cons of this changes, and what numbers should be used. I'll make the proposals after considering your points.
