Liquid Swaps by Boltz: Lightning-Liquid Atomic Swaps

“Shifting rebalancing chain footprint to the Liquid Network, one of Bitcoin’s longest-running sidechains, not only makes sense economically, but it also makes Lightning more reliable and independent from Bitcoin’s mempool.” “These are actual atomic swaps! This means no trust in Boltz is required as we never have custody over your funds, not even for a split-second. It is deeply-rooted in Boltz’s DNA to build the best possible UX non-custodial products.””Talking UX. The current swap box interface can merely serve as a proof of concept for rebalancing channels.
