ATOMIC SWAP 💥
💥Atomic (cross-chain) swap is a way to trade crypto directly with someone else - no exchange needed
💥Like a magic trade where both people get their coins at exactly the same time
💥If one person backs out, the whole trade cancels automatically ⚡️
💥No middleman = no extra fees
💥Increases privacy since you're not sharing details with centralized exchanges
💥Think of it like swapping baseball cards with a friend, but with a magic box that only opens when both cards are inside
💥It's the technology behind many decentralized exchanges (DEXs)
