# Swap NFT for NFT

### What are Atomic Swaps?

Atomic Swaps let you propose trading your NFT for another user's NFT. You can:

* Trade NFT for NFT directly

* Send additional tokens alongside your NFT
* Set expiration times for your swap offers

### Benefits of Using Atomic Swaps

* **Trustless Trading**: No intermediaries or escrow services needed
* **Flexibility**: Add token amounts to balance trades between NFTs of different values
* **Security**: Transactions only complete when both parties fulfill their side
* **Convenience**: Manage all your swap offers from your profile

1. Navigate to any NFT you'd like to acquire
