Agenda

You'll find the general agenda of our growth calls here: https://github.com/bisq-network/growth/blob/master/docs/growth-meeting.md

As decided on our first growth call (6th of Dec '17) we will focus all our efforts for the next couple of months on increasing liquidity on the Bisq network.

Before we can grow the number of overall traders on the Bisq network, we first need to make sure that we have plenty of liquidity available in major trading pairs, esp. EUR and USD.

This means that anyone who considers themselves a potential 'market maker' or 'liquidity provider' is especially welcome on this call, to help us brainstorm ways to make Bisq an attractive place to be for you. We already have a number of ideas, and are looking to get your feedback.

Note that while we're happy to have pro and semi-pro traders serve as liquidity providers, we're also looking for anyone who simply has a need to sell BTC on a regular basis, e.g. for basic cash flow purposes.

This week will be about:

• Preparations for BTC/USD liquidity week
• New payment methods for the US
• Trading experiments in China @flix1

Feel free to add any remarks below or points you want to discuss on this weeks growth call!

I've just realized the issue title says 2018.02.25... when in fact the meeting is today Thursday 22nd. Hopefully it won't confuse too many potential attendees.

Thanks @flix1! I must have mixed it up today when I changed it back again. YouTube Event and calendar entry should be fine.
