A peer-to-peer exchange, built around Zcash.
A DEX in development for trading directly with other people. Agree on the asset, amount and price before authorizing a trade.
In development. Trading is not available.
Agree on the trade.
Know what you authorize.
A trader and a solver agree on exact terms. The solver commits funds at the destination first. The trader checks that commitment before authorizing a shielded Zcash payment.

Solver funds and commits firstFunds · existing asset paid to the trader
Only complete, valid, finalized source evidence can release the committed destination funds after verification.
Agree on the terms
Trader and solver fix the asset, amount and price. The trader keeps the data and tools needed for conditional recovery.
Fund the destination first
The solver funds the native asset and irrevocably commits it to the agreed trade before the trader can authorize the source payment.
Check, then pay
The trader independently checks the committed funds, code, verifier, recipients and finality, then authorizes the shielded Zcash payment.
Verify, then settle
Complete, valid, finalized source evidence must be accepted and classified before the existing destination asset is paid to the trader.
This illustrates the full-payment path, not every outcome. Other outcomes can stay pending. Recovery is conditional and is not yet available.
The design uses shielded Zcash at the source. Destination addresses, amounts and timing can still be public. Private matching is not yet solved.
