This PR does a few things. * It adds a TorTransport which either dials through Tor's socks5 proxy or via clearnet. * It enables ASB to register hidden services for each network it is listening on. We assume that we only care about different ports and re-use the same onion-address for all of them. The ASB requires to have access to Tor's control port. * It adds support to dial through a local Tor socks5 proxy. We assume that Tor is always available on localhost. Swap cli only requires Tor to be running so that it can send messages via Tor's socks5 proxy. * It adds a new e2e test which swaps through Tor. For this we assume that Tor is currently running on localhost. All other tests are running via clear net.
XMR to BTC Atomic Swap
This repository hosts an MVP for atomically swapping BTC to XMR. It implements the protocol described in section 3 of this paper.
More information about the protocol in this presentation and this blog post.
Quick start - CLI
- Download the latest
swap
binary release for your operating system - Run the binary specifying the monero address where you wish to receive monero and the connection details of the seller:
./swap buy-xmr --receive-address <YOUR MONERO ADDRESS> --seller-peer-id <SELLERS PEER ID> --seller-addr <SELLERS MULTIADDRESS>
You can generate a receive address using your monero wallet. The seller will provide you their peer id and multiaddress. We are running anasb
instance on testnet. You can swap with to get familiar with theswap
CLI. Our peer id is12D3KooWCdMKjesXMJz1SiZ7HgotrxuqhQJbP5sgBm2BwP1cqThi
and our multiaddress is/dnsaddr/xmr-btc-asb.coblox.tech
- Follow the instructions printed to the terminal
Limitations
For now, the MVP is limited to testnet3
on Bitcoin and stagenet
on Monero.
How it works
This repository primarily hosts two components:
- the
swap
CLI - the
asb
service
swap CLI
The swap
CLI acts in the role of Bob and swaps BTC for XMR.
See ./swap --help
for a description of all commands.
The main command is buy-xmr
which automatically connects to an instance of asb
.
asb service
asb
is short for automated swap backend (we are open to suggestions for better names!).
The service acts as the counter-party for the swap
CLI in the role of Alice.
It provides the CLI with a quote and the liquidity necessary for swapping BTC into XMR.
For details on how to run the ASB please refer to the ASB docs.
