The AtomicNet vision is to enable a world of liquidity where every asset, including traditionally illiquid assets (e.g., Real Estate, Private Equity), can be instantly and securely traded for any other asset. To achieve this vision, the AtomicNet protocol enables participants to directly settle trades without prefunding while minimizing credit risk. AtomicNet also greatly reduces trade breakage and settlement costs.

AtomicNet enables institutions, such as custodians, commercial banks, central banks, and exchanges, to provide their customers with access to new assets and trading venues, resulting in additional flow, improved customer retention, and new customer acquisition. AtomicNet enables trade sovereignty for its participants because each AtomicNet participant is free to choose with whom to communicate via the AtomicNet protocol.

AtomicNet is not a blockchain (L1 or L2) but relies on a blockchain (the AtomicNet Source of Truth) to provide trustless infrastructure for cryptographic authentication, and as a scalable source of truth for irrefutable publication and other services.
