Does Bisq 2 includes a BTC wallet?

Two questions about Bisq 2 BTC wallet:

Question 1. Does Bisq 2 includes a BTC wallet?

Question 2. If yes to the question 1 above, where is the BTC wallet in the Bisq 2 user interface? I searched but found none.

Below is the same as above. But with details for those interested.

I am new to Bisq 2. I am familiar with Bisq 1. But not familiar with Bisq 2. I installed Bisq 2. Created a Profile. But have not yet done a trade. As you know, with Bisq 1, we are able to both add a password on the wallet and encrypt it.

I am a consultant who is presently reviewing Bisq 2 for a client. Who is considering using Bisq 2. Client asked me to review Bisq 2 for my recommendation.

What I tried to find an answer to my questions up above:

• Searched https://bisq.community But found no answer.

• Searched https://bisq.wiki But found no answer.

• Using Bisq 2, searched both its user interface and built-in help. But found no answer.

• Using Bisq 2, created a new Profile. Then searched for its associated BTC wallet address and configuration. But found none.

This is a note to myself. Please ignore this line: ID_Z3S5H2S3

Bisq2 currently only uses the Bisq Easy protocol directed at nocoiners to get their first utxo in order to trade on Bisq1, and for sellers to invest an initial sum and get ROI in the medium term by selling at a higher premium.

No wallet is included, the use case is that buyers provide an address from the wallet in their Bisq1.

Thanks for successfully solving this mystery

For the present, I will complete my test using Bisq 2 with one of my Bisq 1 wallet addresses.

In the future, when Bisq 2 is ready, if needed, both me and the Ubertus team would be happy to contribute testing. About using Bisq 2 for creating and encrypting BTC wallets.

In other words, for now, I’ll limit my Bisq 2 testing to exchanging Fiat for BTC without security deposit. In the future, when Bisq 2 is ready for creating and encrypting BTC and or XMR wallets, I would happily beta test this.

This sounds great. I bet that Bisq 2 will increasingly attract both sellers and buyers. So far, Bisq 2 does seem easier for buyers interested to exchange Fiat for BTC without security deposit.

For Bisq 2 newcomers facing this challenge, in Bisq 2, the field to paste your BTC wallet address into is located here:

  1. Click on “Bisq Easy” horizontal tab
  2. Click on “Start trade wizard” button. Fully complete this wizard. Click on “Confirm trade” button.
  3. After the above steps, and during the trade, paste your BTC wallet address in the appropriate field. At this point, the next steps are pretty self-explained.

I understand now that those steps above are presently available only within the Bisq 2 App. Within its Wizard user interface and during the trade. Not in the Bisq 2 wiki documentation at https://bisq.wiki
