TL:DR

One thing that all privacy-centric communities and projects can agree on is the pressing need to build crypto solutions without central points of failure in order to bring the industry back to its roots and core ethos — namely, privacy and decentralization.

Even though BasicSwap is incredibly powerful and allows for probably the easiest XMR-BTC or Part(ANON)-BTC decentralized swaps available anywhere, it is at the cost of a relatively involved setup process. Thankfully, accessibility and onboarding improvements — notably a more straightforward and less complicated install process — are on the horizon, and will no doubt help less technically savvy but particularly privacy-concerned users to achieve the swaps they want directly on the BasicSwap platform.

To honor this commitment to privacy and resilience, integrating the BasicSwap protocol into a comprehensive web-based DEX framework hinges on a few things:

  • The commitment to make as little compromise as possible with regards to decentralization
  • liquidity providers
  • [modular software architecture](modular software architecture )

Addressing the peculiarities of a web-based BasicSwap gateway also brings us closer to its integration into the Particl Marketplace, which will allow for seamless swaps between other digital currencies and the $PART settlement coin. This aims to bring deCommerce to unprecedented levels of accessibility and resilience, even allowing users to compound the privacy benefits of multiple cryptos and swapping protocols — a formidable building block towards a common, truly decentralized financial system open to all.
