I think its important to talk about some of the rules for haveno. Currently trading rules/penalties include bisq.wiki/Table_of_penalties This brings into question can haveno prevent fraud & money laundering? or even if it should ie How arbitrators going to handle

https://bisq.wiki/Table_of_penalties

Being a decentralized service, this is a tricky situation, whats illegal in one place might not be illegal in another.

I think first and foremost we should follow the Non-aggression principle Since this is a global exchange and what might be illegal in one country might not be illegal in another country.

From what I understand, this would make any kind of fraud illegal because you are hurting somebody and or taking their stuff.

For me, I see two separate ways of resolving this:

First, you go by the rules of "most strict". In other words, you follow the most strict laws and regulations regarding the parties involved (this includes the arbitrator). In the case that you cannot verify the locality of a party, it is the responsibility of every party to follow their own regulations and follow the known regulations of other parties. Any other "honor code" system such as the NAP would be layered on top of that.

Second, you cut out the middleman entirely, and make the transaction purely one-on-one. Then it becomes a simple issue of ensuring that your transaction is above-board. As far as issues of fraud by one party go, I am still unsure.

less harsher version of Bisq rules is looks great to me.
