AirSwap - The engine of the new token economy
We present a peer-to-peer methodology for trading ERC20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain. First, we outline the limitations of blockchain order books and offer a strong alternative in peer-to-peer token trading: off-chain negotiation and on-chain settlement. We then describe a protocol through which parties are able to signal to others their intent to trade tokens. Once connected, counterparties freely communicate prices and transmit orders among themselves. During this process, parties may request prices from an independent third party oracle to verify accuracy. Finally, we present an Ethereum smart contract to fill orders on the Ethereum blockchain.

About
We're building a better exchange.
SECURE / DECENTRALIZATION PROTECTS YOU AND YOUR ASSETS
Centralized exchanges are subject to attacks, front-running, and abuse. Entrusting third parties to hold cryptographic assets is a significant risk to the token economy. AirSwap puts you in control of your assets.
PRIVATE / PEER-TO-PEER IS A GREAT FIT FOR BLOCKCHAIN
Blockchain was developed as an online, peer-to-peer value transfer technology. We built AirSwap to harness the same power of blockchain as a globally accessible, friction-free value network, supporting private and secure exchange between peers.
FAIR / DESIGNED FROM THE GROUND UP FOR A DECENTRALIZED WORLD
AirSwap is based on the Swap protocol, a peer-to-peer protocol for trading Ethereum tokens. Many existing exchange designs suffer front-running and race conditions. AirSwap was built with fairness in mind and sidesteps these issues.
