As a trial, this CCS proposal is going to operate on slightly different rules
given the unprecedented scope and duration of this proposal. For this proposal
ONLY, refunds will be issued in the event that the funding is not satisfactory
or the milestones are not completed. This differs from the standard of excess or
unused funds going to the general fund.
To qualify for a refund, the donator must send their tx ID, amount, and return
XMR address to luigi1111@getmonero.org (PGP fingerprint:
FE6D D72A 19CD C5FC 6CB9 1696 BA18 1389 4EDD 58B9, full PGP key at
github.com/monero-project/monero/blob/master/utils/gpg_keys/luigi1111.asc) NO
LATER than ONE WEEK after their donation is made. Any remaining unclaimed funds
(in the event that the proposal is not completed) will be sent to the general
fund as usual. If refunds are to be issued, the funds will be returned via the
provided XMR address.
In summary, the funds can be either:
Unclaimed, leading to the general fund receiving them in the case of a failed
proposal.
Claimed within one week of the donation, leading to a refund in the case of a
failed proposal.
Note: The hope is that the refunds will not be needed, and the proposal will get
funded and completed. In the event of proposal completion, refunds will NOT be
issued. It is only if the proposal is not completed or funded to satisfaction,
and ONLY for this proposal.Monero Atomic Swap implementation funding
Previous CCS: Monero Atomic Swaps research funding
Hi everyone,
Three months ago, I posted a CCS for continuing my research on Monero Atomic Swaps. That research is now complete and the results can be found here. The resulting protocol is implementable today; no more missing crypto! So much so that a PoC was implemented in no time; thank you, kayabaNerve and PlasmaPower! Thus I am reaching out to propose getting a team to work on implementing this protocol, with the end goal of creating a production-ready client/daemon for swapping Bitcoin and Monero. Our design enables to seamlessly extend support for more cryptocurrencies to swap with Monero. It would be very exciting to build that.
You can find the whitepaper that describes the full protocol here.
A ready-to-use implementation requires a lot of engineering work. Here, my colleagues and I attempt to break down the project into manageable parts, describing the dependencies that have to be fulfilled, and the general roadmap of the project.
