Particl Desktop 🖥
We're still completing the items outlined in our previous updates, namely including enhancing Tor server capabilities and making a variety of minor improvements.
Please note, however, that we are currently observing a delay that is impacting the development process of Particl Desktop which we hope to resolve shortly.

BasicSwap 📈
Bi-directional Monero Atomic Swaps 🧡
We're on the brink of completing the testing phase for the new bi-directional Monero swapping feature of BasicSwap DEX, with plans to launch this groundbreaking functionality next week.
While we have confidence in our current implementation and the extensive testing conducted, we encourage you to promptly report any issues you may experience with this new feature. Your assistance is invaluable, as it accelerates the project's progress and contributes to a more robust ecosystem!
Small Fixes and Display Improvements 🤏
tecnovertWe've also implemented a few minor modifications, notably enhancing the information display during adaptor signature-based swaps. The ITX and PTX states, which previously appeared as "Unknown", are now accurately displayed.
This improvement has now been pushed to BasicSwap's dev branch, with additional updates to follow soon, and will soon transition to the master branch, making the update official.
Increased Focus on New Exchange Listing 📈
This week, we've been asked about the current efforts to get PART listed in new exchanges, and we thought of addressing that in this update.
In light of Bittrex's current situation, which is less than ideal for many community members, we've indeed recently increased our efforts to secure listings on more accessible and popular exchanges.
The objectives of this initiative are multifaceted. Firstly, we aim to enhance the accessibility of PART for both our community and newcomers. This involves ideally listing on a KYC-free, unrestricted exchange that operates in a broad range of countries.
Secondly, we seek to establish a reputable trading environment for the PART coin, which will foster improved liquidity and increased volume. This, in turn, will enhance the coin's appeal to external observers and speculators.
Additionally, securing listings for PART on more popular and widely used exchanges paves the way for the coin to be reintroduced to quick swap exchanges like SimpleSwap.io and StealthEX.io. As you may recall, PART was previously listed on these exchanges but was removed when Bittrex began restricting their API use to service providers.
In essence, securing listings on better and more widely used exchanges will yield net positive outcomes for the project, amplifying the results of our marketing and outreach efforts. While most exchanges enforce NDAs during the discussion and negotication phase, thus limiting our ability to share ongoing developments, we will certainly announce any positive news in that regard as soon as we are able to.
