# Farcaster Specifications

Hello hitchhiker, and welcome onboard to the Farcaster Specifications! The RFCs describe components that glue together to form a swap protocol between two blockchain based assets, currently focusing on Bitcoin and Monero.

## Overview

Below is an index of the RFCs, loosely in the order we recommend studying them to familiarize yourself with the project.

### [00. Introduction](./00-introduction.md)

Introduction, Glossary and Terminology Guide that will help you familiarize with the Farcaster and Atomic swap terminology.

### [01. High Level Overview](./01-high-level-overview.md)

Describes the high level concepts associated to the protocol such as roles and phases implemented inside Farcaster.

### [02. User Stories](./02-user-stories.md)

Presents from a user perspective how participants interact during the swap depending on their roles.

### [03. Farcaster Architecture](./03-farcaster-architecture.md)

Provides an overview of the technical architecture of the Farcaster software stack. Lists and explains the micro-services that compose Farcaster.

### [04. Protocol Messages](./04-protocol-messages.md)

Specifies the messages exchanged between daemons during a swap and the peer-to-peer management between daemons.

### [05. Tasks & Blockchain Events](./05-tasks-and-events.md)

Specifies the tasks that syncers make available to daemons for the monitoring of chain-state through blockchain events and the broadcast of transactions.

### [06. Datum & Instructions](./06-datum-and-instructions.md)

Specifies the messages that daemons and clients expect to receive from each other. They control the state transitions of an ongoing swap and allow information to flow between a client and a daemon.

### [07. Cryptographic Setup](./07-cryptographic-setup.md)

Specifies the cryptographic primitives used to transfer secrets through transactions with adaptor signatures and specifies the cryptographic setup required at the beginning of a swap to guarantee safety of funds.

### [08. Transactions](./08-transactions.md)

Specifies the Bitcoin and Monero transactions involved in a swap with their temporal safety. Describes variants of Bitcoin transactions, depending on the SegWit version and multi-signature protocol used.

### [09. Swap state](./09-swap-state.md)

Specifies what the swap state is, state-digests summarizing the swap state, what information has to be logged for recovery, and how to recover state after failure.

### [10. Public Offer](./10-public-offer.md)

Specifies the public offer format and features for version 1, allowing makers in the negotiation phase to describe a potential swap, and allowing takers to connects to makers and thus potentially trade.
