Why

India has the 5th largest economy in the world by GDP, yet Bisq does not have many options for people in India to trade. It would be good to give people in India more access to trading on Bisq.

Paytm is an Indian e-commerce payment system and financial technology company, based in India.

PayTM has around 350 million users. Users can send funds to each other via the PayTM wallet.

PayTM is already included on almost all other P2P cryto exchanges.
