Atomic AF

AtomicAF: The Swap Protocol That'll Make Bitcoin Maximalists Rage-Quit

"We're not here to play nice. We're here to nuke trusted third parties into obsolescence."

🎯 Why This Will Trigger The Crypto Establishment

I watched plebs simp over centralized exchanges for years, then saw Atomic Signature Swaps (ASS) on Nostr and realized: "Holy shit - we've been doing trust minimization wrong this whole time."

ASS isn't just tech - it's a middle finger to:

Fee-grabbing escrow services
KYC-obsessed crypto banks
"Trusted" oracle networks

Here's what really burns the suits:

Get paid in sats for merely signing a Nostr event
Automatically drain funds from cope-artists who ghost after receiving your signature
Swap dick pics for Bitcoin (not recommended, but mathematically possible)
Crash the "trusted relayer" market by making their business model obsolete

All powered by Schnorr signatures. No intermediaries. No mercy.

🤯 The Problem No One Wants to Admit

"The entire crypto ecosystem runs on hopium that strangers won't rug-pull you. We fix that."

Here's the open secret every OTC desk fears you'll understand:

If you pay first, I'll ghost with your sats
If I sign first, you'll leak my signature and bail
Current "solutions": Custodians (glorized banks), legal contracts (lol), reputation systems (Sybil attack buffet)

Our answer? Cryptographic violence.

We force atomicity through Schnorr adaptor signatures - the digital equivalent of a double-barreled shotgun pointed at both parties' heads. Try cheating now, I dare you.

🚀 What AtomicAF Really Does

AtomicAF isn't a protocol - it's a declaration of war.

We built a CLI that lets you:

"Swap anything with a Schnorr signature for anything else with a Schnorr signature. No apologies."

Real-world carnage examples:

Trade a Nostr event signature for a Taproot UTXO
Sell a Cashu token for a signed legal document
Ransom your ex's nudes for 0.1 BTC (hypothetically... obviously)

🔬 Core Crypto That'll Make You Question Your Life Choices

Forget the textbook Schnorr crap. Here's the adaptor signature voodoo that makes bankers seethe:

Given a signature (R, s) on message m with key P = kG:

s = z + H(Rx || P || m) * k  
where R = zG

Now comes the witchcraft:

Split z = r + t to create:

s = [r + H((R+T)x || P || m) * k] + t  
               └─ adaptor sig (sₐ) ┘    └─ secret (t) ┘

When the victim (sorry, "counterparty") reveals the full s, you extract:

t = s - sₐ

Boom - atomic swap enforced by math, not lawyers. Eat that, SBF.

🏗️ Architecture (For Those Who Still Care)

Ass Orchestrator
- The digital bouncer that says "No partials? No entry."
- Swap flow: Init → swap adaptor sigs → finalize or get rekt

IAdaptor Interface

interface IAdaptor {
 /** Not your keys, not your crypto. We take both. */
 prepare(): Promise<void>;

 /** Generate adaptor sig that's useless until counterparty cracks */
 generatePartial(): Promise<PartialSignature>;

 /** Verify their sig or bail faster than a Celsius withdrawal */
 receivePartial(sig: PartialSignature): Promise<void>;

 /** Broadcast final tx/event while flipping off intermediaries */
 finalize(): Promise<void>;
}

Platform Adaptors
- NostrAdaptor: Swap event signatures like they're Pokémon cards
- TaprootAdaptor: Steal (ahem, "claim") UTXOs with zero confirmation guilt

🛠️ Built With Pure Contempt for Legacy Systems

Language: TypeScript (fight me, Rust bros)
Crypto: noble-secp256k1 (because fuck OpenSSL vulnerabilities)
CLI: oclif for commands that hurt less than Coinbase fees

⚔️ Battle Scars

Nonce management so brutal it made a HODLer paper-hand
Schnorr edge cases that required more coffee than Satoshi's Whitepaper
Simulating Nostr latency (turns out "decentralized" ≠ "fast")

🏆 Wins That'll Keep VC Vultures Awake

✅ Swapped a Nostr DM for 100k sats while Vitalik was tweeting about soulbound tokens
✅ Zero dependencies (because NPM modules are the real rug-pull)
✅ Architecture ready to absorb sBTC, Lightning, and your shitcoin of choice
