I have not actually used bisq in production, only configured it and set up the private key.
It looks like a very good idea, if people value their freedom this is a good exchange, but do the the decentralized nature of it using the scrow service that is built in it is a must.
I did like it, however I did not see an option to use checks, checks are very safe if used properly. That is you walk in the bank that issues the check and request the cash, it either goes though or not.
I will personally be using this exchange in the near future, but I will need to study all the payment options for fiat.
Also it would be nice if a rating option was added to the exchange to rate the sellers and buyers from possible scams.
