Atomic Commitment Across Blockchains
Summary: AC^3WN provides the first decentralized all-or-nothing atomic commitment protocol for cross-chain transactions in asynchronous, crash-prone networks. An open permissionless witness set prevents conflicting redeem/refund events, ensuring every contract is redeemed or every contract refunded. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
