Haveno ( https://haveno.exchange ) is a fork of bisq. It uses monero as the base layer, NOT bitcoin, so its good for transaction privacy....plus cheaper fees! It is a standalone desktop application that has tor built in and does everything over tor.

Currently in testing stage with fake stagenet monero and needs your help.

Haveno allows you to trade fiat and cryptocurrency for monero and other things like gold and silver. You are trading directly with another peer as you would with localbitcoinsLOLRIP and localmoneroWOOT.

The good thing about bisq and haveno, it can be a FIAT on/offramp. There is multisig and arbitrator protections when there are issues with the trade.

What to do?

• Download binary from the release page and install (or build it if you are a fancy maid :)
• Grab yourself some stagenet xmr from https://community.rino.io/faucet/stagenet/ and send to your monero address in haveno. -Create an account or 10 (all kept local, except the data you need to give to your trading partner)
• Make and take offers and generally test things out as if it was real money.

You can test with real people, or launch a couple instances on virtual machines and trade with yourself.

I think a lot more testing is still needed to get a good solid proper release.

Any bugs found or requests it would be great to make an issue on github. There is also a haveno matrix/irc chat for help and discussing haveno
