Trustless Settlement Technology

Arwen protocols eliminate the risk and friction associated with exchanging coins across two blockchains.

Arwen Protocols and Applications

Crypto to Fiat

Crypto to Fiat

This protocol will trigger the movement of coins from one blockchain address to another based on movement across two bank accounts on the same network. This requires both users to trust the banking institution but adds significant efficiency to settlement. Banks that wish to add Arwen to their platform can Review the API

BTC to ETH

BTC to ETH

Our ‘B2E’ protocol creates compatibility across Bitcoin and Ethereum chains and enables a trustless atomic swap settlement between the two blockchains. Useful as a Bitcoin on-ramp or for any other crypto-native bilateral trading platform. To learn more, check out Sharon's talk at MIT Bitcoin Expo in the video below, or Review the API

Non-Custodial Trading

Non-Custodial Trading

Our original desktop application that allows end-users to trade on a centralized exchange without ceding custody. The application holds a local key to ephemeral on-chain escrows as a means to trade with the exchange without giving up your coins.
