[bisq-network/bisq] Add option to make trade 'reason' less obvious (#2869)

[Conza]

I think if TW is to remain up as an option (which has been fantastic), this needs to take priority. All else being equal, this would help.

I think if maker could default it as you suggest, requiring alternate ID then possibly you'd likely want to show that pre-trade acceptance? Or maybe get more cancels? Very marginal I imagine.

E.g. maker requires I put in desc. "Bicycle fund" and I'm getting insurance benefits for being disabled etc. Or some clash that makes taker uncomfortable?

I think helping communication in trader chat (notifications etc is an indirect aide), as well as possible guidance on "alternate ID" section (i) "if uncomfortable with using preferred suggested alternate ID, please discuss alternatives with trader in chat".

It's more about guiding to work it out together. I'm also at 99.9% didn't need a trade ID to verify etc.

Half a dozen people on Keybase have mentioned having their account closed today.

I imagine a mass closure of accounts like this would be made easier by the use of all Bisq trades using a Trade ID (mixed case, only numbers,...).

All it takes if for someone at TW to google 'Transferwise Bisq' and them finding out the Trade prorocol. This would make identifying traders based on the trade IDs pretty straightforward.

Hopefully making the Trade IDs would make this a lot harder for a company to connect trades together.

I am also thinking the maker could request a Trade ID the default?

Also not sure if a blank ID would be useful. Maybe matching name / account details / amount etc is enough. Of all the trades I have done on Bisq, I think I would be able to match over 99% of them to my trade partner without the Trade ID. The remaining 1% could be confirmed in trader chat.
