You can become your own gateway in two simple steps! Here we'll show how easy it is to issue your own currency on the Stellar network.
1: A user extends trust to your gateway account for a "maximum" amount of your currency. Remember, they're trusting you'll honor whatever your currency represents when they give it back to you.

Here we'll show how a simple trade works on the Stellar distributed exchange.
1: You submit an offer (using TransactionType "OfferCreate"), offering the currency you want to sell for another currency you want to buy. In this example, we'll put in an order that says "I'm selling 500 Stellar for 10 USD!" Now, you must specify the issuer (gateway) of USD you'd like to buy (a gateway you've already trusted).
