# About Garden

Swap Bitcoin trustlessly anywhere in as little as 30 seconds.

Garden is an intent-based Bitcoin rails protocol. You express what you want to swap, an open network of solvers competes to fill the order, and settlement happens on-chain via HTLC contracts. Both sides complete or neither does — your funds stay in your control, start to finish.

Garden has processed billions of dollars in volume, powering Bitcoin swaps across apps like Phantom, MetaMask, Lightspark, LI.FI, and many more.
