## Atomic Swaps
Atomic Swaps allow two parties to exchange different tokens without the need for a 3rd party, eliminating most of the risk of fraud and counterparty default.
In this case, our Customer has earned 1 SND token (which for our purposes is our pretend airline mile token) via previous purchases and he wants to exchange that for L-BTC. How do we do that?

Moreover all of the above lends itself to risk of fraud and counterparty default.
Luckily, due to the additional OPCODEs in Liquid, atomic swaps between assets are possible. In fact, Blockstream has a tool to simplify using it.
