This is great... but I can't wait until we get some kind of atomic swap that makes mediation unnecessary.

I know it's hard with BTC-fiat... but as fiat becomes more digital it should become easier.

For example atomic swaps should be possible between bitcoin and a bitcoin based stablecoin (omni-USDT?).

Maybe with e-CNY?

The achilles heel of CBDCs will be how easy they are to exchange for Bitcoin 😉

You know what is even more easy to exchange? Bitcoin for Monero used in everyday commerce!

Of course. I agree. Earning and spending bitcoin is better than having to exchange... but that requires network effects. We are not there yet. Exchanges still play a very useful role.

BTC-XMR atomic swaps would be very cool!

There were some teams working on it... but I have not seen any results. Let me know if there is some working exchange that uses them.

Unstoppableswap.net has it. There was once a bounty for integrating atomic swaps into Bisq.

But for whatever reason it didn't happen so far.
