ELI5 atomic swap

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago (edited)

You can exchange one type of coin for another without converting them in an exchange first. So lets say you have VertCoin, and I have litecoin. With atomic swap I can send you the litecoin and you would receive it in VertCoin(Vertcoin just did an atomic swap earlier this week).
