According to CoinMarketCap, the most popular asset on the Bisq is a cryptocurrency Monero:
Also Larry Cernak notes that never before Monero was not on the Bisq is so popular. An abnormal burst of activity in a pair of XMR/BTC analyst associates with the implementation of KYC procedures at the service ShapeShift.
3/ 89% of all volumes on Bisq involved Monero in the last three months. In the previous 2 years of Bisq”s existence, only 17% of volumes involved Monero. This is likely because of the heightened regulatory pressure that resulted in having to Shapeshift KYC of its customers.
