Atomic Swaps Barterdex

[buzzkillb]

So you want to try atomic swaps? Lets see if we can get you started on playing around with this on BarterDEX.

Important, you will need 3 transaction because BarterDEX needs what are called 3 "UTXOs" "Unspent Transaction Outputs" that can be used essentially during the process of atomic swapping. This is noted later down the guide when you will be forced to do this.

First change your denarius.conf on your QT wallet.

rpcuser=denariusrpc
rpcpassword=somerandomlongpassword
server=1

Now restart or open the QT wallet.

Next go download the latest BarterDEX, as of this writing its version 0.8.10-Release Candidate
https://github.com/KomodoPlatform/BarterDEX/releases

Unzip to a folder and run BarterDEX.exe

Generate a New Passphrase. KEEP THIS DO NOT LOSE IT, THIS IS BASICALLY YOUR PRIVATE KEY!

Repeat the phrase and you will be starting BarterDEX

Now click ADD COINS

In the dropdown type denarius or find Denarius on the list, keep native mode to use your QT wallet as the server, and click enable.

DNR is now on your list. Click receive to get your DNR address to send to, to get started trading!

After you send, which basically adds an address to your QT wallet, so you own the private keys, click exchange.

We want to enable KMD for playing around. So click Enable Electrum so we don't have to download the KMD blockchain.

Now we can trade some DNR. I clicked sell DNR. On the Buyer side I clicked one which populates the the bottom left corner. I change to .5 under DNR SELL and click SELL. You might get asked to send some transactions.

Earlier on BarterDEX says to send 3 transactions to get this going. Might have to wait for the full confirms to happen in the QT wallet. Good thing DNR confirms fast so we aren't waiting too long for this to happen. 

Once confirmed, click sell. Go to trade history at the top right and see what happened.
