Development Roundup - atomic swap progress, Metamask style UX swapper started development, dev blog series coming soon

After a successful Mainnet Beta deployment we are back on the regular development schedule with regular Development Roundup summaries along with our more extensive R&D updates and soon to begin developer blog series.

The goal being to give further insight and spotlight our development processes whilst we also expand community outreach (in other areas that may not be so developer focused). Latest updates are as follows:

  • Putting the final touches on the first version of the RenEx Swapper which allows cross-chain atomic swaps for the trading of Bitcoin to Ether on RenEx. Look out for the addition to RenEx soon along with guides!
  • Development has begun on a stand-alone atomic swapper that can be used with any Hashed Time Locked Contract (HTLC) token, usable by any exchange. This will enable Republic Protocol exchanges to support any token on any blockchain. This work will pave the way for a new standard of atomic swaps that should be easily integrate-able for the entire ecosystem and help increase the adoption of the technology.
  • Development on a Chrome plugin for a simpler, faster, and more secure atomic swapping user experience has begun. The goal is to create a tool similar to Metamask - a universal tool with the purpose of being used for atomic swaps.
  • Bug fixes and stability improvements for the RenEx website were pushed.

In the meantime we have continued to test stability of the beta with great results among some expected inevitable bug fixes that comes with a Beta product.

Our commitment continues to be prioritization of improvements which will have meaningful impact on the platforms ability to accrue liquidity. Stay tuned for further updates and more details on these and other exciting developments!
