Question about a couple of claims about Bisq

[Bisq] was developed by Bitcoin devs and originally planned to be a part of the official Bitcoin source code.

Is this accurate? I never knew that the developers (supposedly) were also Bitcoin developers, or that it was actually going to be part of the Bitcoin (Core?) source code. This is the first I hear of this, which is why I’m asking.

It would’ve been pretty messy and controversial if it were part of the source code! Still, maybe it would’ve been a good thing after all, if done in the right way, in terms of adoption of both.

that’s one thing we have in common then, this is the first time hearing that story for me as well :slight_smile:
