When posting a sell offer, this exception is generated. BTC is reserved and a fee is extracted but the offer is never posted. The trade is cancelled and BTC released but the fee is net returned.

You can try to comment on that issue to see if they can help or you can join bisq.slack.com . The devs frequent those platforms more often.

Haven’t heard of this one before. Could you provide your log file to the devs so we can take a look?

I’ve reported the issue to Github with the screenshot of the error message. I am very curious to find out what’s happening. I tried to place another offer, unsuccessfully and I am happy to share the log file. It’s quite big however (3.2 MB of text). How do I do it?
