On-chain foreign exchange refers to the direct exchange of different digital assets or cryptocurrencies conducted entirely on a blockchain network. This process utilizes smart contracts to facilitate atomic swaps or decentralized exchanges, removing the need for traditional intermediaries. It enables peer-to-peer currency conversions with transparent and verifiable execution.
