Features and Philosophy

Unlike traditional online exchanges, Bisq is designed to be:

Instantly accessible – no need for registration or approval from a central authority. Decentralized – there is no single point of failure. The system is peer-to-peer and trading can not be stopped or censored. Safe – Bisq never holds your funds. Decentralized arbitration system and security deposits protect traders. Private – no one except trading partners exchange personally identifying data. All personal data is stored locally. Secure – end-to-end encrypted communication routed over Tor. Open – every aspect of the project is transparent. The code is open source. Easy – we take usability seriously. Bisq is for those who do not want to forfeit control or privacy to a central authority in order to trade with other individuals. We regard financial transactions as a form of private speech that should be protected from surveillance by banks, governments, and other institutions.
