There is no point in first checking for the expired timelocks and then constructing a `select!` that also watches for the timelock to expiry. We can simply only have the select! invocation to achieve the same effect. In case the timelock is already expired, this future will resolve immediately. Normally, the polling order of `select!` is pseudo-random. We configure it to be _biased_ here to make sure the futures are polled in order.
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
swapbinary release for your operating system - Run the binary:
./swap buy-xmr --receive-address <YOUR MONERO ADDRESS> - 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
swapCLI - the
asbservice
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.
