Bisq has a new update as of 10 days ago, it's now up to version 1.9.4. One improvement is an update to the latest version of Tor, which improves network reliability. The other significant improvement is the implementation of derivative Monero addresses, (sub-addresses) which can greatly improve privacy if you use Bisq to trade XMR.

I'm anxious to play with it, and hopeful we'll see a beta release in the next few months. Unfortunately there isn't a set timeline for 2.0 release, but I expect some of the features will be implemented in minor version updates of 1.9.x as they get validated.
This is a follow-up release that adds the latest Tor version (v0.4.7.
to improve Tor connectivity.

Bisq exchange is working on big update for their new version 2.0 with massive UI changes and improvements.
This is not released for public yet, current version is 1.9.2, but according to screenshots I saw this looks amazing and it improves privacy.
There is a new welcome screen, Nym profiles are available, and you can simply navigate with clicks and sliders, Lightning, Liquid, etc.
It appears to me they hired some new people to help them make it very easy to onboard new users to Bisq.
