The swap should not be concerned with connection handling. This is the responsibility of the overall application. All but the execution-setup NetworkBehaviour are `request-response` behaviours. These have built-in functionality to automatically emit a dial attempt in case we are not connected at the time we want to send a message. We remove all of the manual dialling code from the swap in favor of this behaviour. Additionally, we make sure to establish a connection as soon as the EventLoop gets started. In case we ever loose the connection to Alice, we try to re-establish it.
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.
Quick start
- Download the latest 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.
