We are happy to announce our first 2020 Event!
This evening with great pleasure we welcome Thomas Bocek, David Duran and Justin Smith that will introduce and showcase Cross-chain Atomic Swap.
SIBEX will be joining us and will demo an atomic swap.

Titel: "A Showcase of Cross-chain Atomic Swaps"
The case study we will be presenting will address the implementation of atomic swaps for the SIBEX trading platform using hashed time-locked contracts (HTLC).
This framework creates and validates each transaction of the HTLC on the trader's own full-node, establishing full-custodianship of the asset to the trader. We will go in depth to demonstrate the process of a swap on the bitcoin and ethereum blockchains. David has already written a blog post about this subject (https://www.blog.axelra.com/2019/12/axelra-accelerate-the-digital-product-delivery-of-sibex/).
