Hi, I’am performing a SPV resynchronisation for the first time and I have several Bisq peers but no Bitcoin network peers. Is this due to me using my own node or is the synchronisation not working?  
I just installed the app yesterday and was trying to close my first transaction. Now I’am trying to resynchronise the SPV because, after several hours, the payment confirmation didn’t appear when sending sats already had several confirmations on the blockchain. I don’t have a great trade history: how long should it take? I am a little stressed because by tomorrow morning at 10 a.m. I should make the payment for my purchase.  
Thank you

EDIT  
For almost a day now, the resynchronisation seems to have been going on without progress.  
The deadline for my payment has passed and I also feel sorry for the seller.  
Should I consider the part of the balance blocked on my escrow as security for the transaction now lost or, with some penalty, will it one day be released and with the seed I will be able to recover it?

Point them to this issue if you need to go to mediation, I suppose it will be accepted as an excuse to be late on your trade.  
In a normal computer, it shouldn’t take more than 2-3 hours for a wallet with less than a year and not heavy use. If you open the terminal with Bisq, you can see how the process is going and get an idea if it’s still going on, but sometimes it can show as not advancing while it’s still worth to wait a little more.  
You have instructions on how to proceed to restart Bisq and not losing the spv resync progress: [Resyncing SPV file - Bisq Wiki](https://bisq.wiki/Resyncing_SPV_file#Fix_an_incomplete_SPV_resync)

PS: If you have no Bitcoin network peers, spv resync will never work. Go to matrix www.bisq.chat for help on this issue.

Ok, thank you, I’ll try again

Ps il it’s a problem with my node and I turn it off, will Bisq look for other nodes?
