Powered by @npub1nyyh...7gan 👊 Disclaimer: While current network fees for Boltz Liquid Swaps render tiny swap amounts economically impractical, we believe it’s crucial to provide flexibility. With Zap Swaps, users of Boltz-powered wallets like Misty Breez no longer need to resort to alternative solutions for occasional tips or Nostr zaps. Happy zapping ⚡️

Call for UI/UX feedback! We are currently debating internally about how meaningful it is to have our Web App expose the technical swap state in the course of the swap (see below). Keep it or remove it? Poll 👇

Common issues/questions

Say adiós to per-swap refund files 👋 Say hola to the Boltz Rescue Key 🛟 At boltz.exchange, we’re dramatically simplifying swap UX: instead of downloading a new refund file for every submarine or chain swap, you’ll now only need one Boltz Rescue Key—downloaded once—and we'll never bother with downloads again 🙏 How It Works 🔑 The Boltz Rescue Key functions as master refund key, deriving a new key for every swap 🖥️ It works on any device and lets you create refunds for all swaps created with it. ⚛️All without compromising the non-custodial characteristic of Boltz Swaps. Why It Matters The Boltz Rescue Key reduces the risk of users misplacing individual refund files and losing access to funds locked in swaps—especially critical for web-based swaps (like boltz.exchange) that require external key backups.

Network fees for Rootstock -> Lightning swaps just dropped by 50%. Before: 162 sats, Now: 81 sats 🫰 Spontaneous #Lightning payments with your RBTC balance just got even more accessible 🧡 Wen integration to allow your users to spend #Bitcoin on the go? @beexowallet @Rabby_io @EdgeWallet ELI5 of how we did this: we extended our Rootstock swap contract to allow us to claim Rootstock swaps in batches. The more swaps happen in a given time frame, the cheaper it gets. If Rootstock swap volume continues to grow, network fees may drop even more.

Announcement: Today we are making Boltz user support safer! 🛡️ Due to the dramatic increase of scammers, trying to extract mnemonics from our users via DM, we are discontinuing support via DM on all platforms. While we are keeping channels like Discord and Telegram for public discussions, everything that needs private communication, like inquiring about details of a swap, will only be processed using one of the following two communication channels: 1. Via support chat at boltz.exchange 2. Via email to hi@bol.tz This concretely means that if someone tries to make you communicate via any other communication channel, IT'S A SCAM! ⚠️ Your Boltz User Support Squad 🧡
