AirSwap (AST) is a decentralized, peer-to-peer token trading network built on the Ethereum blockchain. It strives to simplify and enhance the safety of the process of trading tokens, eliminating the need for fees. The network operates on the Swap protocol and provides three products: Instant, Spaces, and DexIndex. AirSwap's technology, operational since 2017, allows tokens to be moved only at the instruction of both parties involved in a transaction, potentially fostering trust in the process. The platform's mission is to facilitate global, frictionless trade, and it welcomes participation from a global community of builders working on peer-to-peer protocols and products.
