[bisq-network/bisq] Improve BSQ account creation & purchase process (#5046)

> I created a mockup that was inspired by the ethereum DEXes like Uniswap and 1inch. It's just an icon that displays your current BSQ balance.

> I think BSQ just needs to be front and center in the UI. Period. I have felt this way since the DAO was launched.

I couldn't agree more re: making current amount of BSQ far more prominent. I think BEFORE that takes place, the whole issues raised originally need to be addressed. A cosmetic change will bring awareness, but far more problems if people don't have an easy fluid way to do it.

> Pazza mentioned in another thread about potentially airdropping BSQ to recursively to users of bisq and that's exactly what ethereum AMM DEXes are doing.

> These Automated Market Makers like Uniswap and 1inch airdropped their own governance tokens to users that helped bootstrap the DEX and they added a GIANT icon at the top of the UI that displays your eligible claim/current balance.
> 
> It has now become a trend with these AMM clones to do their own airdrops to incentivize people to be users and liquidity providers.

> I'm not saying we have to do an airdrop (though that would be cool), but I wanted to point out that it works for creating awareness and buzz.

**No airdrops imo.** I don't think there'd be a better way to tarnish the brand reputation garnered so for Bisq. I've piped up elsewhere that BSQ needs to not be considered another shitcoin—have its own stats in various sections of site (reporting on payment methods etc, where its makes it look like altcoins are top no. of offers when BSQ is the vast majority. 

> Regardless, I think BSQ just needs to be front and center in the UI. A simple icon that displays your balance would be WAY MORE advertisement for BSQ than having to search for it as a regular altcoin like it is now.

If the agents/support want more tickets, they'd promote BSQ and make this change - _**without**_ having made it any easier for a newbie to acquire as per OP.

Definitely on board with this UX change in general, just post easy purchase improvements.
