[bisq-network/roles] Mediator (#83)

[Bisq-knight]

I got an influx of cases in the past 2 days, which are still open. Nothing out of the ordinary, probably just spiked interest due to the price action of Bitcoin.
 
The cycle was pretty average. about 2 thirds of the value mediated was for altcoin trades (similar to previous cycles) and 1 for fiat trades (smaller trades in general).

The most common issue was simply traders going overtime but settling by themselves. Second

This cycle one of my past disputes ended in an unfuded arbitration/Reimbursement proposal (when there is no delayed payout tx, thus the trade amount does not get sent to the Bisq donation address).
