Bisq contributors are suffering because they can only sell at the same price they received their compensation on Sundays and even then, most weeks their offers don't get taken by the burningman. Anything other than that, they are dumping the price on the market which gets lower and lower because there isn't enough liquidity. 

I agree that it goes against BISQ's principles to be on centralized exchanges BUT if you view BSQ as equity in the project, what you are doing is giving people another way of getting to know more about bisq. We can talk shit about centralized exchanges all day but the truth is they have done an incredible job in being that bridge between the fiat world and crypto. Most people in crypto today are here because of coinbase, binance and others. Bitcoin is, and has always been in all shitcoin-casinos and no one seems to mention it, and that doesn't take anything away from Bitcoin. Volatility due to more liquidity isn't bad, in fact is necessary for growth. Giving it more exposure and using channels like CEXs to have more ways to attract people is a great thing. For bisq it would mean more liquidity, a potential increase in price thus giving back to contributors and eventually have more users which would scale the project even more. 

We have BSQ-BTC swaps, literally the first atomic swaps on bitcoin, huge! but no one knows about it. I do believe in a slow steady growth but at some point we have to make BSQ more accessible and get more people to know about what is happening here. Using the api for trading bots will be an awesome volume boost but there needs to be a larger pool of people that have access to BSQ.

How come BSQ is not even on coinmarketcap? what needs to be done to be there?

Already on CEXs:
- Sovryn [(SOV)](https://coinmarketcap.com/es/currencies/sovryn/) in kucoin, gate.io, uniswap...
- Celcius [(CEL)](https://coinmarketcap.com/es/currencies/celsius/) FTX, Liquid, uniswap, gate.io..
- Nexo [NEXO](https://coinmarketcap.com/es/currencies/nexo/) Huobi Global, Bitfinex, FTX...
- RSK Smart Bitcoin [RBTC](https://coinmarketcap.com/es/currencies/rsk-smart-bitcoin/markets/) Kucoin, Bitfinex..

What needs to be done to make this happen? I'm sure with Bisq there will be more technical difficulties than with other projects but I strongly believe this will help, please share your ideas and I'm looking forward to hear other people's thoughts.
