# P2P & Spot

### ⚡️Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Marketplace

LN Exchange provides a peer-to-peer marketplace where users can directly trade with each other, eliminating the need for intermediaries and allowing for fast and efficient transactions. Whether you're buying, selling, or exchanging assets, our platform ensures a seamless experience with instant settlements. The P2P Marketplace currently sits on [Lnfi Network](https://www.lnfi.network) and will be migrated to LN Exchange at a later stage.

### ⚡️Spot Orderbook

With LN Exchange, users can access spot orderbook functionalities, providing flexibility and diversity in trading strategies.
