Komodo, the pioneer of decentralised cross-chain Atomic Swap has released their new version of mobile AtomicDEX (Decentralised Exchange) for public beta testing. The app also works as mobile wallet using SPV (Simple Payment Validation) servers for listed coins. They have been working on mobile first approach this year for this flagship product and have been conducting closed beta testing. Many projects are working on decentralised exchanges (DEX) for the last few years and none of them has a true DEX product yet with the exception of Komodo. Users are losing trust over centralised exchanges (CEX) due to limitations, hack, loss of funds, bankruptcy, government regulations and KYC implementation etc.

It’s important to note that this is a beta launch in Europe. During our beta, we will have a fairly low daily limit: €500 per day on buys and sells. We hope to continue raising this limit in the near future as we move out of beta.
Now, it will be easy for European users to buy BitcoinDark using BTC from Coinbase with their Euros. Users need to authorize their bank account to deposit and start trading. Their service is not available in the UK yet. You can always check coinbase.com/global for any new added countries.
