Post what you have and what you need. The algorithm finds exchange chains of 2 to 5 participants — even when direct swap isn't possible.

Problems we solve

Trading without money seems impossible when nobody wants what we have to offer directly

Finding multilateral exchange chains manually is impractical

No trust between strangers to exchange without a middleman
