1. Can’t send funds due to the following message below.
2. Bisq Network still initializing

Any help out there? Please and Thank you.

Message: You need to wait until you have at least 1 connections to the bitcoin network.

You can go to Settings and try changing some of the Bitcoin node options.  
Perhaps even setting custom nodes to connect to, as it seems like Bisq is having trouble connecting to the default nodes.
