Imagine there is a multi currency wallet:
MULTI-ALTCOIN-MULTI-WALLET
Something like multibit, but for altcoins.
Modular, functional, brandable per coin.
which has an escrow module
module ideas, not essential, but nice-to-have
- an escrow module, where always two three or four people have access to the same wallet, but each according to her role in the escrow protocol
Now here comes an idea, perhaps I am wrong, but perhaps this is a very good idea.
If in two coin currencies
two such escrow modules of the
three people escrow protocol
are linked
by taking the same "third person" in both escrow protocols,
(and then replace her by software of course)...
... then we could have trustless trading inside our multicurrency wallets.
Or am I wrong?
In other words:
Currency-1 transfer is agreed upon only if currency-2 transfer is agreed upon.
And currency-2 transfer is agreed upon only if currency-1 transfer is agreed upon.
Both transfers are locked until both transfers are unlocked at the same time.
Of course, that involves waiting for the slower confirmation currency, but hey that's we do anyway, don't we?
How can these two escrow transactions be reliably linked?
