That roadmap is absolutely captured by Liquid.
I liked everything up to the later transition goals.
No one uses liquid. No one wants liquid. But your team is no doubt close to the technical brain thrust behind it or funded by people that want Liquid to happen.
it's not going to happen.
Skip all those steps and just prioritize Monero swaps.
Like lightning, liquid is over designed and worse, a mishmash of acronyms with unclear objectives (all with third party risk and legal liability) a branding crisis if you will.
Imagine being a new user that wants to send money to someone in another country or even in the same country.
All the pain points for getting from fiat to btc, to lightning/liquid, finaly to that person in a private, secure way, are far above basic Monero use.
Wallet security, lightning and bitcoin node self custody, now add whatever liquid is trying to do with its litany of projects.
Each point along this is a learning curve with diminishing returns on sending a few dollars to cover last sundays brunch with friends, or pay for a house.
Liquid has designed itself into a pocket universe no one wants to live in, and others are doing it better.
That being said, Kudos to you and the team on delivering Bisq V2, having a functioning DOA and inheritance process, i will test and hope its an improvement on the slow mess of V1. We all benefit from your success in this space.
