My last login was years ago (pre-covid) on Lubuntu 20.04 with Bisq v1.5.4

I would like to begin trading again. Back then, user maturity (usage record?) impacted trade limits. Can I transfer my usage record or must I begin from scratch? Or are those limitations all done away with? I’m not sure if I will use Windows or Linux. How secure is Bisq on Windows (due to Windows exploits)? My Linux is rusty.

Thanks in advance!

Bisq on windows is as secure as any other windows application. I recommend you to use Linux, many things are even easier there, since devs and many Bisq users are using it (network effect is changing in this area).

If you had your account signed, it should be signed still.
