SideSwap is a non-custodial, peer-to-peer platform for privately swapping, holding, and trading Bitcoin and other assets. A recent upgrade now introduces direct asset-to-asset swaps, eliminating the need for intermediate conversions.
Innovative Swap Engine
Users can now exchange Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC), stablecoins like L-USDt, and tokenized securities directly with one another. The platform supports both market orders and instant swap orders executed at optimal prices.
Enhanced Trading Features
The new engine enables partial matches, allowing orders to be filled even when full quantities aren’t available. This reduces slippage and improves liquidity efficiency. SideSwap retains its non-custodial nature through atomic swaps — secure transactions that either complete fully or not at all.
Privacy and Security
SideSwap leverages the Liquid Network’s Confidential Transactions, hiding both asset types and transaction amounts from public view. Only trading parties can see transaction details, providing superior privacy compared to transparent blockchains. Users retain full control of their private keys throughout the entire trading process.
Democratized Liquidity
The upgrade opens liquidity provision to everyone, not just institutions. Anyone can now contribute to liquidity pools and earn fees, broadening market participation. Fee discounts are available for single-signature and AMP wallet users, making frequent trading more cost-effective.
Here are some features from the latest version of SideSwap:
- Native Segwit support – Enables lower fees and ensures cross-wallet import compatibility
- Real-time price tracking – Let your orders follow the market dynamically with index-linked pricing
- Order Book trading UI – You can now hit and lift orders directly in the order book interface
