AtomicDEX Enters Public Beta
We are very excited to announce the public beta phase of AtomicDEX, the industry's only mobile-native decentralized exchange built on anything-to-anything, asset-agnostic atomic swaps. This represents a generational change in atomic swap technology.
The AtomicDEX story goes back all the way to 2014 when our vision about a decentralized exchange was born. Indeed, the current version represents our third generation DEX protocol. It goes beyond a wallet and the original scope as we have built an entire solution that empowers anyone to build a product relying on our technology backend. - AtomicDEX is also a wallet that is compatible with most protocols, such as BTC/ETH/ERC
- AtomicDEX uses libtorrent protocol to connect users who have agreed upon a trade.
- Once a match is found the trade settlements happen through a cross-chain atomic swap
We are releasing a test version of AtomicDEX on Android and iOS for a limited number of beta testers. The purpose is general bug hunting and further optimizations to the atomic swap backend.
Help us make AtomicDEX a better product, and join us as we continue to revolutionize the blockchain space.

Exclusive AtomicDEX Coverage By Decrypt
It is just like the Decrypt's article headline reads: "AtomicDEX's beta launch means atomic swaps are coming to a phone near you".
We are one step closer to a more interconnected user experience where everyone will be able to move and manage cryptocurrencies and blockchain tokens within a single interface. The process of an atomic swap was well explained by Tim Copeland:
An atomic swap is when a cryptocurrency is directly traded for another cryptocurrency, without any third party being involved to handle the funds. As such, the whole trade is performed on-chain
Note that with AtomicDEX you will be controlling the real privatekeys of each coin you hold. The trading does not happen through a proxy like on the currently dominant proxy token DEX model.

Antara Framework AMA Was A Big Success
A month ago on June 3rd, we introduced Antara, An End-To-End Smart Chain Development Framework.
We had released a limited amount of information and knew that there would be a lot of questions. We decided to host an AMA to properly inform our community about what is coming.
There were tons of good questions ranging from Antara, to rebrand, to development. We compiled some of the answers into a blog post.

In-Depth Look Into Atomic Swap History
Continuing with a strong atomic swap theme, we decided to publish extensive research about the history and origins of the cross-chain atomic swap technology. The research was made for journalists, researchers, and analysts.
The commentary is intended to be an informative launching point into one's own investigation into the world of atomic swaps.

Towards Independence And Komodo Vision
Komodo has had a long-standing vision about creating an open platform with maximum developer freedom and independence. Finally, it is all coming together and we are closer than ever.
Token trading and exchange is a major part of our ecosystem vision as users would no longer have to give up control over their privatekeys. With the AtomicDEX Wallet, we are able to hand trustless trading capability to our ecosystem as well as to the greater blockchain industry.
Another key aspect in our vision is a multi-chain ecosystem of sovereign blockchains. That will be made a reality by Antara Framework that will be launched together with our rebrand on July 15, 2019.
