Hey guys, thanks for your feedback and comments. It's very valuable for us. Really!
What we've been trying to build (and hopefully already built) is a way to exchange one asset from network A for another asset from network B (e.g. BTC for ETH). We know that there are a lot of services allowing this - ShapeShift, Changelly etc. Basically the difference is that we allow the exchanging of assets to happen without the need of a trusted party between A and B (i.e. ShapeShift, Changelly).
The beauty of it is that the whole process is mathematically and cryptographically secured. The whole source code is/will be open sourced, so it can be easily verified and thus trusted (or not). Another beauty of it is that if you allow Alice to swap her BTC to Bob's ETH, Alice can now interact directly with an Ethereum dApp using Jelly.
Simple real life example is Compound. You can use Jelly to supply ETH/DAI/WBTC to Compound having only BTC. In the case where one use ShapeShift - you have a lot of additional steps before using Compound for example.
The process is relatively fast (actually as fast as it could be at the moment) and certainly secure. In my personal opinion as a user (not a developer), I think the whole user experience is great even if you are very little familiar with cryptocurrencies/blockchain.
I think that with YOUR help we can build great product that potentially can accelerate the usage of dApps across our community. We would be very happy if you give it a try when the testnet is officially live and give us your precious feedback.
If anyone of you have any kind of questions ( tech or non tech ) please ask I will answer them ASAP.
Also, soon we will make an ANN thread as per your suggestions. Thanks!
