### Why
India has the 5th largest economy in the world by GDP, yet Bisq does not have many options for people in India to trade. It would be good to give people in India more access to trading on Bisq.
RTGS is an electronic funds transfer system maintained by the Reserve Bank of India. RTGS payment enable immediate and large remittances (minimum of 200,000 INR ~$2,700 USD) by banking customers in India to transfer funds for between any two RTGS -enabled bank accounts.
Pretty much all bank accounts in India can make RTGS payments.
