Short (V2) vs long (V3).onion addresses for users?

I notice that most users with open offers seem to have longer, V3 .onion addresses, but a few have short V2 .onion addresses. Is there an explanation for this? Are the shorter onion addresses more “suspicious” (ex., using an older version of Bisq or some kind of hacked version)? Or, are they more “trustworthy” (ex., because they’ve maintained a Bisq account for a long time)?

I’m just curious - thanks!

You can find more information on that topic in this thread and wiki page:

Tor v2. will be disabled this year.
