In-wallet Bitcoin Exchange

Swap BTC for PART Straight from Particl Desktop!

The in-wallet exchange tab, powered by the new SMSG bot, allows you to quickly fund your Particl Desktop wallet with PART by swapping BTC. The exchange module is also integrated right into the buy flow in a way that will easily let you swap BTC for PART when you don’t have enough funds to checkout your cart. Then, once the PART coins are confirmed into your wallet and have matured (requires 12 confirmations), you can just get back to your cart and place your order with the seller.

SMSG Bot & Bot Management

Manage SMSG Bots (More Bots Coming in the Future)

The in-wallet Bitcoin exchange module is currently powered by SimpleSwap through the brand new SMSG bot. The SMSG bot also allows for other exchanges and service providers to be integrated right into Particl Desktop and will become, over time, a key component of the upcoming SDK. While the bot can be set up with different exchanges and also other coins, it is only enabled for Bitcoin on SimpleSwap…for now!

Note: The exchange bot may not show up initially when going to the Bot Management page. That’s because it is based on the SMSG peer-to-peer network and it needs to sync, in full, to be available. In a way, the bot will appear just like a listing — once the network as scanned the relevant SMSG message containing all the information required to display the bot on your Particl Desktop client. If you click on Bot Management and the page keeps loading, just wait it out!

Cancel Bids

Particl Desktop 2.2.0 introduced the ability to cancel bids. Particl Desktop 2.3.0 adds more flexibility to the cancellation process by allowing bids to be cancelled all the way through up to the point where the seller locks his funds in escrow (thus confirming both parties are fully locked into the escrow).
