Bisq is an open-source desktop application that allows you to buy and sell bitcoins in exchange for national currencies, or alternative crypto currencies. Bisq is for those who do not want to forfeit control or privacy to a central authority in order to trade with other individuals. We regard financial transactions as a form of private speech that should be protected from surveillance by banks, governments, and other institutions.Bisq is currently in Beta and we are actively looking for highly-skilled developers, designers and security experts to join our community. If you’re interested in helping make Bisq a reality, there are many ways to contribute.
