Since the inception of Monero atomic swaps — largely due to Joel Gugger’s adaption of adaptor signature-based swaps for Monero (as we’ve detailed here) — they have only been unidirectional, meaning it’s only been possible to buy or sell Monero as the ‘taker’ of a swap offer, never as the initiator. This is due to certain technological constraints behind the semi-scriptless adaptor signature scheme that is required for XMR swaps.

Today, we’re extremely proud to announce the implementation of bi-directional Monero and PART (Anon) atomic swaps on BasicSwap DEX, meaning swaps can now be facilitated in both directions.
