[bisq-network/bisq] Bisq-2 UX challenges (Discussion #5959)

Having the Bisq-2 allow for new traders, with no BTC, begin buying BTC on Bisq directly in the app would be a positive step forwards.

Currently the Keybase model relies upon reputation. I like the idea of Bisq-2 having multiple identities so that an established trader could use on identity linked to reputation and/or BSQ bond to facilitate a trade with a new user, whilst at the same time have a separate identity for say the BTC/EUR market or BTC/BSQ market that does not link to any reputation or BSQ bond.

The current Keybase model could be improved in Bisq-2 by the following:

- Have options for traders (with reputation / BSQ bonds) to make offers to sell BTC for specific payment methods / currency
- Have option for new traders to make offer to buy BTC with specific payment methods / currency
- Inclusion of a chat function in this market for buyers to ask questions and sellers to answer
- Inclusion of a support feature should either trader want to escalate trade to mediator / support agent
- A way for Bisq to charge trade fees on accepted trades

To be fair there might not be much difference between the market above and a market for those who choose to use a reputation or BSQ Bond security model to complete their trades. Maybe the market above could be limited to a specific BTC/Fiat amount  and/or only include sellers that have had their reputation verified and/or have a required amount of bonded BSQ. 


I really like all the possibilities that would come with Bisq-2 but I do agree that it brings with it significant UX challenges. This is made even more complex by being able to run Bisq on multiple clients. Would the idea be for the design to be mobile first? Should you be able to do everything on a mobile you can do on a desktop? Also are is a users client's able to connect at the same time / used interchangeably, or, will it still be the case that only one instance of client can be used?
