Description

When adding a SEPA or SEPA payment account to Bisq there are 4 countries missing.

Bisq should enable users with bank accounts in these countries to access the EUR market place with SEPA / SEPA Instant accounts.

Adding these should be straightforward for @bisq-network/dev assuming being backwards compatible would not be an issue?

Adding these 4 countries would increase liquidity in the EUR marketplace.

Version

v1.4.2

Steps to reproduce

On the Bisq client:

Accounts > Add new accounts > SEPA
Accounts > Add new accounts > SEPA Instant

Expected behaviour

The following countries are missing:

Euro Countries

AD - Andorra
SM - San Marino
VA - Vatican City State

Non-Euro Countries

JE - Jersey

Although small in population; Andorra, San Marino, and Jersey all have significant financial centers. All these countries have more bank accounts than their population size. Non citizen and corporate accounts held in these countries are often large in size. These countries also have a reputation for more privacy in relation to their banking institutions.

Vatican City accounts are controlled by the Holy See, therefore, there is a limited number of VA IBAN accounts in existence. However Bisq should enable all countries to easily access the platform.

Actual behaviour

The above 4 countries are missing from SEPA and SEPA Instant.
