Our API is now additionally reachable at api.boltz.exchange and JSON output in the browser is finally working.
Try it out with e.g.: https://api.boltz.exchange/version
All available calls: https://docs.boltz.exchange/en/latest/api
We double checked with nostr:npub1jg552aulj07skd6e7y2hu0vl5g8nl5jvfw8jhn6jpjk0vjd0waksvl6n8n, the round one we are using is the new official logo: https://liquid.network/assets/asset/6f0279e9ed041c3d710a9f57d0c02928416460c4b722ae3457a11eec381c526d
The droplet will be phased out
And we are back. Happy Swapping!
โ ๏ธAnnouncementโ ๏ธ
Boltz's services will be down for a scheduled maintenance tomorrow June 28th from 7:00 (am) UTC for roughly 1.5h. Reason is a restart of our lightning node due to a memory leak in the latest release. There will be a new release fixing the issue shortly.
We just released a new landing page @ https://boltz.exchange
Intention is to add some info about what we do (more to come) and whom we are working with for first time users, while keeping the swap box only a tap away.
Let us know what you think!
Atomic Swaps consist of *two* transactions (first lock, then claim) and size might be slightly different from yours. Here is how we calculate size: https://github.com/BoltzExchange/boltz-backend/blob/master/lib/rates/FeeProvider.ts#L30
Network fees are calculated based on mempool.space's priority fee. Can you share an example where you felt they were not correct?
Also you might want to check out Liquid swaps. We launched these recently precisely because of spiking network fees on the mainchain:

This is how easy it is to install Boltz as App (PWA) on your mobile, here an example of the steps for Android:
1. Open boltz.exchange in your mobile browser, open the browser menu and tap "Install App"

Confirm with "Install"
https://void.cat/d/Ewt3g5Tgk8iHfA2KDnRUT7.webp
Now you should find Boltz as App Icon on your home screen which you can open and run just like any other app
Today we are introducing our all-new web app:
๐ http://boltz.exchange ๐
๐ United Liquid & mainchain swaps: one web app to swap them all
โฌ๏ธ Increased Liquid swap limits: Now up to 0.1 BTC
๐ฅ Swap to Taproot addresses: now supporting bech32m
๐ง Enhanced privacy: Liquid swaps available via onion domain
๐ฑApp Store censorship resistance: install as Progressive Web App
๐งฎ Exact on-chain amounts: swap to pay with precision down to the satoshi

nostr:npub1psm37hke2pmxzdzraqe3cjmqs28dv77da74pdx8mtn5a0vegtlas9q8970 is there an onion service for the #lightning | #liquid exchange?
Not yet, but will be super soon once merged on our main site: boltz.exchange
For getting outbound liquidity in a *specific* channel we still need to implement https://github.com/BoltzExchange/boltz-backend/issues/197
Eventually we want liquid swaps to be tightly controllable but fully automated via a local daemon connected to your node. No need to handle liquid/L-BTC.
For getting outbound liquidity in a *specific* channel we still need to implement https://github.com/BoltzExchange/boltz-backend/issues/197
Getting inbound liquidity for *specific* channel? Rn you manually would have to control the channel used for the outbound payment in the swap, but we are partnering with a node monitoring and rebalance autmation solution that connects a local daemon to your node doing this for you.
We are targeting routing nodes with this product, but the status quo is rather a proof of concept. Agreed!

Our May 2023 TL;DR:
๐ค- bumpy start: https://snort.social/e/note1s7lx5aksjf3phav0yv5qwr5mewz4mjvpz6xntulmpc9dwjzew59slrwtlg
๐ข- identified & shipped solution for channel rebalances unaffected by #Bitcoin 's volatile fee environment: https://snort.social/e/note128420vxkdc5jfkune5sa52wdj0hdpnvek8kl56uclvuk7tpakhhqtws0q0
๐- Liquid swaps now comprise ~20% of our daily volume , m-o-m total volume โฌ๏ธ25%
Wouldn't be atomic/non-custodial and quite a flow, but would love to see someone to try it out and report back on experience and fees!
Great video! Noticed the webapp is scrollable to the right, which it really shouldn't by default. Did you zoom in?
