I’ve completed a trade using a SEPA bank transfer and I believe this is one of the least KYC-free ways of acquiring btc through Bisq. Is that correct?

If so, I would like to buy some btc via Cash By Mail or F2F. I assume I shouldn’t have those funds sent to the same Bisq wallet due to the UTXOs mixing with the SEPA transfer.

Should I first create a new wallet first as described [here](https://bisq.wiki/Create_a_new_wallet_for_your_data_directory)?

Thanks!

that’s probably going overboard and you don’t really need it.  
If that’s what you’re worried about, move out of the wallet the btc related to that trade, send some to another address in your wallet to cover for the deposit, and if you used BSQ to pay for fees in the previous trade, either sell it and get a new BSQ utxo, or pay the fees in btc

Thanks for your answer!  
Could you explain why I’m going overboard with this thinking?

Also - why would first moving out the sepa utxo make a difference? It’s still the same wallet right?

You may be going overboard because your privacy needs aren’t that high.

As addresses are not reused, as long as you avoid merging funds from different addresses, it does not matter if the wallet is the same: at blockchain level, they’re just different, unrelated addresses.
