When a USER shifts between Bitcoin Cash and an SLP token, SideShift.ai create an ATOMIC SHIFT. The USER will receive their SLP tokens almost instantly.
​
​

How does it work?

  1. USER selects Bitcoin Cash -> SLP SHIFT.


2. USER sends Bitcoin Cash to SideShift.ai, in this case 0.005 BCH.


3. SideShift.ai creates a transaction which includes the BCH sent by the USER (red arrows) and USDH (green arrow). Some of this USDH will be SETTLED to the USER.
​


4. The USER receives the USDH (red arrow) and the remaining USDH is returned to SideShift.ai (green arrow).

If a USER attempts to double-spend and the BCH sent to SideShift.ai is not confirmed, then the SHIFT will be void and no USDH will be sent to the USER.
