Specs

Total number of supply is 18,400,000 XWP. Mining Swap uses Cuckaroo29s Cycle PoW algorithm with a 15 second block time. Block timing is regulated using Monero DAA.

Faster confirmations and higher transaction throughput

Improved network performance and stability

Establishes a working economy discouraging the mining of empty blocks

Encouraging early adoption and early network security

Born without governance fees and staying without governance fees

Equal, fair, and open community release

Wallets

Support for Windows, Linux, MacOS, paper, and hardware.

Milestones

Current project milestones and future short-term goals.

November 16th 2018

FreeHaven is Born

Simply speaking, Haven added fees, so the community made a free coin. Thus the birth of the "FreeHaven" project.

Faster 15 second blocktime, no premine, no fees, and the best part.. no BS.

December 11th 2018

Rebranding to Swap (XWP) and BulletProof Transactions

Community members decided to completely break away from Haven by rebranding from FreeHaven to Swap.

Not only a name change but also cutting all coding ties to Haven. Swap is rebased from Monero adding BulletProof transactions.

December 16th 2018

Hardware Wallet Support

Can now store XWP physically with a Ledger Blue, Nano S, or Nano X.

January 15th 2019

Swap.fyi Comes Online

First Swap splash page is born with links to pools, mining software, and wallet downloads.

Swap marketing starts assembling. Social media sites are established and community outreach begins to form.

February 20th 2019

Forking to Cuckaroo29s Cycle PoW Algorithm

Swap is the first CryptoNote coin to integrate the Cuckaroo Cycle PoW algorithm for fair mining.

The change brings the Swap network superior protection and stability.

Future Goal

Mobile and Web Wallet Support

After forking to Cuckaroo Cycle PoW algorithm is completed mobile and web wallet support is next.

Future Goal

XWP Exchange Listing

Listing to an exchange will become a priority after a successful fork to Cuckaroo Cycle PoW has been established.

Exchanges

There are currently no official exchanges.

To get XWP without mining use escrow on the the Discord #otc-trading channel or rent hashing at MiningRigRentals.

Community Team

Swap is a decentralized project with people working from around the world. More project contributers are welcome.

Frequently Asked Questions

These are questions from the community. If you have a question reach out to us through Discord, Twitter, Reddit, or our Forums.

What sets Swap aside from other coins?

We use Moneros way of handling transactions (BulletProof) and Grins way of mining (Cuckaroo Cycle PoW). Swap will stay close to Monero technology-wise while not using their PoW algorithm that requires constant forking, destroying decentralization.

What is the current main objective for Swap?

Our main objective is to remain an ethical useful technology. To us, this includes fairness, transparency, security, and ease of use. With Swap you can expect no compromises with governance fees, no premine, and no BS.

How can someone without coding skills help the project?

Besides running a node to support the network, it would be helpful to learn more about the technology. It's easier to explain things when you understand them and you can better form opinions about the technology's potential, or lack thereof.

The best thing is bringing more people in, all kinds of people, regardless of coding skill, and also haters, because they help to make the community more robust.

Why is the algorithm going to change and when?

CryptoNight is slow on GPUs because FGPAs can use embedded RAM. Further variants of CryptoNight will buy time but do not solve anything long-term. Cuckaroo Cycle PoW brings superior protection and stability to the Swap network.

The change will happen once the technology is stable. With proper planning and testing, the transition will be smooth.

Is MimbleWimble Cuckoo?

No, MimbleWimble is the protocol (like CryptoNote), Cuckoo is the original algorithm Cuckatoo and Cuckaroo are based on. Cuckatoo is the ASIC friendly algorithm and Cuckaroo is the GPU friendly algorithm. Swap will stay with the GPU friendly algorithm, Cuckaroo.

Is Swap planning to be listed on exchanges?

Yes, the exchanges listing process will start after changing the current CryptoNight SuperFast PoW algorithm to the Cuckaroo Cycle PoW algorithm.
