Samourai Wallet’s BTC-XMR atomic swaps program went live a few hours ago with the release of version 0.0.13-beta:
This desktop application makes it very easy to trustlessly swap BTC<->XMR, completely over Tor. In public beta, expect some bugs, and a “dev UI”. The actual UI is still in development 🙂 (pokkst)
The application is essentially a GUI for COMIT’s XMR-BTC atomic swaps protocol with modifications to further enhance anonymity, with the Automated Swap Backend (ASB) built-in, as well as Samourai Wallet Whirlpool for automatic mixing of redeemed BTC.
Consult the comit-swaps-java docs to learn more about the project.
Downloads and signed hashes are available on the release page. Feedback and bug reports can be directed to @samouraiswaps on Telegram.
Note that while swaps are functional, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Swaps CAN fail, for multiple reasons. It is important you ensure your swap remains running, otherwise you risk being punished.
