Add seller leaderboard to Bisq Easy

[darawhelan]

I think it would be good to add a seller leader-board to Bisq Easy

• Allows buyer to see which sellers have the highest reputation
• Allows sellers to see their ranking, and encourages competition

Include LEADERBOARD menu option between OFFER BOOK and MY OPEN TRADES

Leaderboard should in include

• Ranking 1, 2, 3 etc
• Profile Icon
• Name
• Star rating
• Reputation score

If you would like to action this please let me know and I will provide more text for the page.

At the reputation screen there is a table with the reputation of all users in the network (after 2 weeks inactivity they get removed from the network). But I agree that this place is not that visible for newbies and should promote it better.

Yes would be great if you could work out more the details, so a UI dev taking that task has more guidance.

@mastakalandir is this something you would be happy to take a look at?

@darawhelan Can you provide more details on some specific use cases where this would be useful? what value does it add to the user to see this page?

No problems.

Imagine a seller with a 2 star reputation. They would like to get more trades from people buying bitcoin from them. To do this they would like to increase their reputation by burning BSQ but they are unsure as to how much BSQ to burn. If they could look at a leader board they could see the reputation scores for their 'competition', other bitcoin sellers, they can work out from this how much BSQ they need to burn to get to a 3 star, 4 star, 5 star reputation etc.

For a seller with a 5 star reputation it allows them to see what the competition is doing to ensure they continue to burn BSQ or bond BSQ to keep their 5 star reputation.

For a bitcoin buyer they get not only to see the star rating of the sellers but also the position of that seller in relation to other sellers. This might influence their buying decisions when it comes to choosing who to trade with.

@darawhelan - Thanks for the explanation.
This sounds good. However, could this lead to a winner-takes-all dynamic?

could this lead to a winner-takes-all dynamic?

The revenue model for Bisq Easy is to encourage competition between sellers. I think the risks of a winner takes all scenario are low due to multiple currencies, problems with lots of fiat payments, sellers hours they will be connected to Bisq Easy

Ok, let's have a look after the release.
