Key Features
Order-Based Trading
KaleidoSwap uses a taker-maker model for swaps. You create an order, pay the deposit, and the maker executes the swap by sending the asset to your recipient address. This is not an atomic swap — you pay first and then wait for the maker to fulfill your order.In this phase, swaps are not atomic. After you pay, the maker processes your order and sends the swapped asset to the recipient address you provided.
