I agree, the fees are more than fair given the quality of the service provided.
For me, the following idea is what puts eXch
really above all others competitors:
Bisq is one and the only truly decentralized exchange which we often recommend to our customers without any greed feelings, since our primary goal is not to make money but to defend some cypherpunk ideas instead.
Defending ideas that (I think) brought us all here in the first place, more than "profit first", is something exceptional enough to be highlighted IMO.
They demonstrate this regularly, whether through large donations (to
SimpleX,
Thorchain, or
Tor Project among others), by participating in/financing the development of a
light Bisq client, or, for example by providing the
first Lightning-Network compatible wallet available on F-Droid.
When I see how some other companies in the industry treat their users (
1 ,
2 ,
3) (like "profit before principles/rights", without even mentioning cypherpunk principles btw...), I'm glad we have access to a reliable, non-intrusive service like eXch.
