Bisq is experiencing issues related to a cumulative proof-of-work bug in BitcoinJ.

An upstream fix exists but hasn’t yet been ported to our branch. We expected this issue to surface around March 2026, which turned out to be a miscalculation.

We’re actively working on the fix and aim to release a new version soon. If you have open trades, please be patient—mediators and arbitrators will take this situation into account.

Thanks for the update. I currently have an open trades at “payment sent” and am experiencing sync issues consistent with this bug.

To be clear bitcoinj released a fix for this issue 11 months ago in version 0.16.5.
