Atomic swap is a smart contract technology that aids exchange of one cryptocurrency for another without using centralized intermediaries, such as exchanges. It supports the exchange of one cryptocurrency to another without the use of an exchange.
Exchanging a cryptocurrency to another takes a lot of processes and could be difficult mostly because not all exchange has the all type of cryptocurrency that an investor holds. The atomic swap makes exchange easy and fast for all cryptocurrency.
