Bisq has a history of contributors disappearing due to lack of incentive or sense of coordination within bisq as a unit. In order to incentivize the support team and reward consistency in contribution to the project (as well as inflation) I suggest increasing the compensation after 6 months of consistent contribution so that it would look:
Role
Current Compensation
New Compensation
Burning man
1000

Mediator
1000

Refund Agent
50 USD per case fee + 1% per cycle interest rate for BTC paid out + 3.3% issuance fee for BSQ requested
55 per case fee + 1% per cycle interest rate for BTC paid out + 3.3% issuance fee for BSQ requested
I prefer to have this structure: 50 +1.1%. 50 USD per case is enough, I get much more low amounts than big amounts to reimburse and arbitration fee covers a bigger part of the cost for higher volume trades, while is insufficient for low amounts. The rest (+1.1%) is the cost of "lending" BTC to Bisq and I find it ok to increase it, specially since after a year I roughly have benefits.
Issuance fee (I prefer to call it printing cost) is not part of compensation, it's reimbursement. It's not exactly 3.3% but a cost calculated every cycle depending on BSQ price. Traders will be reimbursed considering this printing cost as well. https://github.com/bisq-network/support/issues/1052
