This really is the best of 2 worlds: forced anonymity like Monero has, but with the mixing set of all past and future z-transactions on this PIRATE chain.

Atomic swaps have happened for quite a while actually. I am part of the testing team at Komodo Platform, where we have been actively swapping around 80 coins for a couple of months now. They have built a decentralized exchange, including decentralized orderbooks, decentralized order matching, etc. An easy to use GUI is in BETA now.

Some articles that probably explain it better than me:
https://blog.komodoplatform.com/everything-you-need-to-know-about-atomic-swaps-and-how-komodo-is-advancing-the-technology-cadaec50da7c
The topic where the current swap protocol is explained and 'invented': https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1340621.0
And the whitepaper covering all the details about the decentralized exchange BarterDEX: https://github.com/SuperNETorg/komodo/wiki/barterDEX-Whitepaper-v2


Swaps between two Electrum nodes have been successfully done for a couple of weeks now, too.

Did you read the post, just 2 above yours? Let me sum this up for you:

First of all, jl777 says he has solved most, if not all, problems that have prohibited the development of any decentralized poker platform in the field.
On top of that, you can anonymize your winnings by using JUMBLR. So, suppose you win a big game of poker, you jumble your winnings and no-one has proof that your btc or kmd or whatever coin is popular by then, were won with gambling. This is quite huge, since there are a lot of legal issues regarding online poker, not only in the US.
It is the first coin to actually make good use of the Lightning Network. Just check this issues list to see the help LN gets from jl777: https://github.com/ElementsProject/lightning/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=is%3Aissue%20author%3Ajl777%20
It is a Bitcoin fork, and does not use Ethereums smart contracts, like a lot of other gambling coins do.

I'm gonna say it: It's a game changer.
