Atomic swaps would be trades of BTC/LTC/VTC (coins with a similar language/chain) without a third party or exchange needed. (so no deposit/withdrawal/exchange fees)
Nice. One if the major problems with BTC right now are transaction fees.
I wonder how that effects the mining and exchange networks. I can imagine they'll never want something like that. I smell a fork, unless there is something I'm missing about this story.
