The next step, according to Rucknium4, is to find a knowledgeable independent party that can verify that the swaps are atomic.

Consult the associated Github repository5 to learn more about the project and to watch a bch chipnet and xmr stagenet POC video. A mainnet demo will also be provided by PHCitizen soon.

This is an ongoing story and the report will be updated when new information is available.


Update 24/1/7: Rucknium mentioned a related project in yesterday’s community meeting6 - pat’s BCH Flipstarter for a production-ready implementation7 [of a BCH<>XMR atomic swap frontend].

Update 24/1/14: the BCH<>XMR atomic swap frontend campaign was fully funded8.
