Release notes

⚠️ Security update

To enhance security for buyers, sellers must have sufficient reputation to secure a trade for the specified amount. The required reputation score is determined using the following formula:

For a minimum trade amount of 6 USD, the required reputation score would be 1200, which can be achieved through any of the following methods:

• Burn 12 BSQ (approximately 25 USD).
• Lock 120 BSQ as a bond for approximately one year.
• Have a Bisq v1 signed account for at least 120 days.
• Have a Bisq v1 account age of at least 280 days.

BSQ can be purchased with Bisq 1.
For more details, visit the Bisq reputation system Wiki.

Since this release is a critical security update, the new version will be enforced shortly after its release to ensure the protection of all buyers.

Installation

macOS

Bisq does not use Apple's notarization process (see why).
For that reason you will see that (misleading) alert:

Grant permissions by:

• run sudo xattr -rd com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Bisq2.app in a terminal (type Terminal in the Apple search box)
• open Bisq2 again

More details can be found here.

Windows

For similar reasons you will get that warning at Windows: Windows protected your PC

• Click the More info button when prompted
• Click the Run anyway button when prompted

More details can be found here.
