Tuskex (pronounced ha‧ve‧no) is an open source platform to exchange Monero for fiat currencies like USD, EUR, and GBP or other cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, and BCH.

Main features:

• All communications are routed through Tor, to preserve your privacy

• Trades are peer-to-peer: trades on Tuskex happen between people only, there is no central authority.

• Trades are non-custodial: Tuskex supports arbitration in case something goes wrong during the trade, but arbitrators never have access to your funds.

• There is No token, because it's not needed. Transactions between traders are secured by non-custodial multisignature transactions on the Monero network.

See the FAQ on our website for more information.

Tuskex can be used on Monero's main network by using a third party Tuskex network. We do not officially endorse any networks at this time, but they can be found online.

A test network is also available for users to make test trades using Monero's stagenet. See the instructions to build Tuskex and connect to the network.

Note that Tuskex is being actively developed. If you find issues or bugs, please let us know.

• tuskex - This repository. The core of Tuskex.

If you are not able to contribute code and want to contribute development resources, donations fund development bounties.

To incentivize development and reward contributors we adopt a simple bounty system. Contributors may be awarded bounties after completing a task (resolving an issue). Take a look at the issues eligible for a bounty on the dedicated Kanban board or look for issues labelled '💰bounty' in the main tuskex repository. Details and conditions for receiving a bounty.

To bring Tuskex to life, we need resources. If you have the possibility, please consider becoming a sponsor or donating to the project:
