Bisq is a decentralized exchange (DEX) that facilitates the buying and selling of bitcoins in exchange for national currencies. Operating as a peer-to-peer network, Bisq is designed to be private, secure, and censorship-resistant, aligning with the fundamental principles of Bitcoin. Unlike traditional exchanges, Bisq does not require users to submit personal information, thus enhancing privacy and security.

It runs on open-source software that allows users to trade directly with one another without the need for a central authority or intermediary, using a software application that can be downloaded and run on individual computers. Trades on Bisq are conducted over the Tor network, further ensuring user anonymity and data protection.

The platform uses a decentralized arbitration system and security deposits to ensure fair and secure trade execution, making it a unique and innovative solution for users seeking to exchange cryptocurrencies in a decentralized manner.

In this review we go over the basic features of the dex, how to buy, or sell bitcoin, and look and feel of the application.
