Atomic Swap

Atomic Swaps refer to a technology that enables the exchange of one cryptocurrency for another without the need for a trusted third party or centralized exchange. This is achieved through the use of smart contracts that enforce the swap or exchange only if both parties fulfill their respective obligations. Atomic swaps can occur directly between blockchains of different cryptocurrencies or off-chain, away from the main blockchain.

Crucial for enhancing decentralization in cryptocurrency trading, atomic swaps facilitate a trustless and secure way to trade directly with another party.
