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 cannot 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.
I believe Stellarx is built inside the network called Stellar? Their native token, XLM, is a centralized bankcoin, network validation might be centralized too.
Use it if you want, but it is not truly decentralized.
