I originally discounted this payment method as no to Skrill to Skrill payment is possible, but expensive (1% to deposit funds, 1,5% to send funds, and 1% to withdraw funds).
However if technically possible my proposal is for Skrill to be a 'taker' account only. Similar to my proposal for [WorldRemit](https://github.com/bisq-network/growth/issues/230)
Skrill accounts would be able to take offers on any of the following payment methods:
SEPA (EUR)
Faster Payments (GBP)
Wire Transfer US (USD)
National Bank Transfer (in any of the currencies above)
