# Shield
Source: https://docs.vanish.trade/guide/shield
Shielding is the process of enabling Vanish’s shielded execution layer to protect your trades.
![2025 09 165 44 49pm Jp]()
***
To start trading, select the token you wish to trade in shielded mode. Vanish supports SOL and all token standards. After choosing the token and amount, click the **Shield** button to proceed.
Your connected wallet will prompt you to review and approve the transaction. Every swap requires your authorization, and Vanish never holds user private key custody. Shielding is subject to approval by Vanish’s Integrity Framework (VIF), which screens for sanctions, fraud, and bad actors.
***
![2025 09 165 51 28pm Jp]()
***
Once shielding is active, your trades are routed privately through Vanish’s execution layer. On-chain observers can confirm that a shielded transaction occurred, but they cannot trace the size, direction, or details of your trades, keeping your strategies and alpha protected.
# Swap Tokens
Source: https://docs.vanish.trade/guide/trade
Swap tokens privately within Vanish’s shielded execution layer, giving you the simplicity of a DEX with the added benefit of full transaction privacy at lightning-fast speeds.
![2025 09 244 51 52pm Jp]()
***
From the main navigation of the widget, click **Swap**. This opens the dedicated swap interface. The layout shows:
* An **input field** (for the token you’re selling).
* An **output field** (for the token you want to buy).
* Customisable **Trade** **Settings** (fees, slippage etc.).
***
![2025 09 245 00 01pm Jp]()
Selecting **Settings** allows you to customize parameters to support the trade:
* **Max Slippage** – The maximum price change you’ll allow before a trade fails
* **Anti-MEV (Jito)** – Protects trades from front-running by routing through Jito
* **Priority Fee** – Extra fee to speed up transaction processing
***
![2025 09 245 11 19pm Jp]()
To perform a swap in shielded mode, click the dropdown in the input field. This will display the tokens you’ve previously enabled for shielding (e.g., if you shielded SOL and USDC, both will be available). Select the token you want to trade, the widget displays your shielded balance for that token directly above the field.
In the input field, type the amount you want to trade. The widget automatically calculates:
* **Estimated output**: the amount you will receive after the 0.5% trading fee.
* **Exchange rate**: the price between your input and output tokens.
* **Minimum received**: the guaranteed minimum amount after slippage protection (based on your slippage tolerance settings).
Select the token you wish to receive in the output field. You can also enter the **output amount** first, and the widget will calculate how much input is required.
Vanish currently supports only SOL-paired swaps, meaning SOL must be either the input or the output token. This design ensures liquidity efficiency and supports compliance.
***
![2025 09 245 23 51pm Jp]()
Before finalizing, carefully review the trade details. If everything looks correct, click the **Execute** button. Your connected wallet (e.g., Phantom) will open with the transaction summary, showing the tokens being exchanged and the Solana network fee. Click **Confirm** to authorize the swap. Within seconds, Solana confirms the trade and the Vanish widget updates your shielded mode balances:
* Your input token decreases (plus the 0.5% fee).
* Your output token increases by the received amount.
The output token appears in the **Assets** section of the widget, ready for your next trade.
***
![2025 09 245 34 38pm Jp]()
Behind the scenes, trades are routed through Vanish’s shielded execution layer, which severs the direct on-chain link between your wallet and the swap. On-chain observers see only that a shielded transaction occurred; they cannot trace which wallet initiated it or link it to your broader trading activity.
* **Private**: shielded swaps cannot be connected on-chain.
* **Performance**: swaps finalize at lightning speeds using competitive market pricing.
The **Swap** page feels like any familiar DEX: choose tokens, set an amount, approve, and swap. The difference is that every step happens privately in Vanish’s shielded execution layer, giving you the same ease of use with stronger protection, alpha preservation, and compliance safeguards.
# Unshield
Source: https://docs.vanish.trade/guide/unshield
Unshielding is the process of disabling Vanish’s shielded execution layer and making your assets visible on-chain again.
![2025 09 165 57 44pm Jp]()
***
To initiate unshielding, select the token you want to unshield. Vanish supports unshielding of any asset you currently hold in shielded mode. After selecting the token and amount, click the **Unshield** button to proceed.
Your connected wallet will prompt you to review and approve the transaction. Every swap requires your authorization, and Vanish never holds user private key custody. Unshielding activity is subject to approval by Vanish’s Integrity Framework (VIF), which screens for sanctions, fraud, and bad actors.
***
![2025 09 165 51 28pm Jp]()
***
Once unshielded, your trades return to normal on-chain visibility through Vanish’s same wallet-in, same wallet-out model. External observers can confirm that your wallet received funds, but they cannot reconstruct the trades that occurred while shielded, protecting your trading strategies.

2. **INTERACTING WITH THE SERVICES**
**2.1 Digital Asset Wallets**
You must use a third party non-custodial wallet software application that interacts with public blockchains and iscompatible with the Platform and the Services (“Digital Asset Wallet”). Your relationship with a Digital Asset Wallet provider is governed by the terms and conditions of that third party’s agreements. We assume no responsibility or liability in connection with your use of any Digital Asset Wallet. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to prohibit any Digital Asset Wallet from connecting to the Platform or from interacting with any part of the Services. We do not make any representations or warranties regarding how the Services or the Platform will interact or operate with your Digital Asset Wallet. By connecting your Digital Asset Wallet to the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
**2.2 Digital Assets**
Each Service is a non-custodial application, meaning that we do not, at any time—custody, possess, or control the virtual currency, cryptocurrency, stablecoins, liquid staking tokens, or other cryptographic tokens (collectively, “Digital Assets”) you hold, store, send, or transfer to or from your Digital Asset Wallet. As the owner of Digital Assets stored in your Digital Asset Wallet, you acknowledge and agree that you bear all risk of loss related to Digital Assets sent, received, or stored in your Digital Asset Wallet. You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for the custody of the cryptographic private keys associated with your Digital Asset Wallet and will not share your Digital Asset Wallet credentials or seed phrase with any third party. We accept no responsibility for, or liability to you, in connection with your use of any Digital Asset Wallet.
**2.3 Security**
You are responsible for maintaining adequate security and control of any and all IDs, passwords, cryptographic private keys, hints, personal identification numbers (PINs), API keys, or other codes that you use to access the Services. Any loss or compromise of any of the foregoing can result in unauthorized access to your Digital Asset Wallet and the loss or theft of your Digital Assets. We assume no responsibility for any loss that you may sustain due to a compromise of your access credentials due to no fault of ours or your failure to follow up or act on any notices or alerts that we provide or send to you. In the event that we suspect that an unauthorized person is accessing the Services via your Digital Asset Wallet, we reserve the right to terminate, suspend, or restrict your access and use of the Services.
**2.4 The Protocol**
The Platform provides a web or mobile-based means to access the software protocols that govern the operation of Digital Assets (the “Protocol”). The Platform is one but not the exclusive means of accessing the Protocol. The Protocol is comprised of open-source or source-available self-executing smart contracts. You acknowledge and agree that the Platform is distinct from the Protocol, the Platform is one but not the exclusive means of accessing the Protocol, and your Protocol interactions or transactions are not interactions or transactions with us. You further understand and agree that we do not operate, own, or control the Protocol’s liquidity pools or control trade execution on the Protocol.
**3. THIRD PARTY SERVICES AND WAIVER**
The Platform may include, without limitation, links to sites, technology, applications, products, services, materials, or resources, provided or made available to you by third parties (“Third Party Services”). Your access and use of any Third Party Service are subject to the terms and policies of the applicable Third Party Service provider including without limitation Turnkey Global Inc. and its terms currently located [https://www.turnkey.com/legal/terms](https://www.turnkey.com/legal/terms).
**3.1 Third Party Services**
You acknowledge and agree that you are solely responsible for any and all costs, charges, and fees associated with your use of any Third Party Service. Our integration or inclusion of any Third Party Service does not imply endorsement or recommendation. You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for the availability, reliability, accuracy, or legitimacy of any Third Party Service (including any related websites, resources, or links displayed therein). Any dispute you have involving a Third Party Service including, without limitation, your intellectual property rights, is between you and the provider of such Third Party Service.
We will not be responsible or liable for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by, or in connection with, your use of, or reliance on, any Third Party Service. If, to the extent we permit, you grant express permission to a Third Party Service to access or connect to the Services through such third party or the Platform, you acknowledge that granting permission to any third party to take specific actions on your behalf does not relieve you of any of your responsibilities under these Terms. You are fully responsible for any act or omission of any third party. You acknowledge and agree that you will not hold us responsible for, and will indemnify us from, any liability arising out of or related to any act or omission of any third party with access to your Digital Asset Wallet, decentralized application, software, or other mechanism that you use to interact with the Services.
**3.2 Waiver of Claims**
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you waive any and all claims, demands, and damages of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, disclosed or undisclosed, against Vanish and each of our respective officers, employees, agents, and successors arising out of or in any way related to any of the risks set forth herein. You also waive application of Section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California, or any similar statue or law of any other jurisdiction. Section 1542 reads as follows: “a general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him or her must have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor.”
**4. REWARDS**
In connection with the Services, you may earn or receive incentives, prizes, points, or rewards, (collectively, “Rewards”). Any Reward that we may offer or make available through the Platform or the Services, from time to time and at any time, is subject to these Terms and any other applicable term or provision directly or indirectly related to or in connection with the Reward.
**4.1 General Reward Terms**
By accepting these Terms, you hereby unconditionally and irrevocably confirm that you understand and accept any and all risks directly related to or in connection with Rewards. You further agree and consent that you grant all necessary rights for using your Digital Assets that you directly use or in connection with any program, campaign, or other similar activity we offer or make available. We reserve the right to change, modify, discontinue, or cancel any Reward we offer at our sole discretion, at any time, and without notice to you.
Any information regarding the potential amount of a Reward is an estimate only. Vanish does not, in any way, represent, warrant, covenant, or guarantee the rate, multiplier, or other formula used to calculate Rewards (collectively, “Reward Rates”) will, at any time, remain the same and may fluctuate up or down from time to time. You acknowledge and agree that any representations, whether express or implied regarding any Reward Rate may be based on factors including but not limited to: (a) an estimate based on general market rates; (b) special rates during promotional periods; and/or (c) observations of available on-chain rates.
**4.2 Slashing**
Some or all of the aggregate amount of the Rewards or other amounts may be programmatically destroyed as a penalty imposed by the applicable underlying blockchain network (“Slashing Penalty”). As a result, there may be non-payment of Rewards and the staked Digital Assets may be subject to a penalty. We will not be responsible or liable for any monetary or equitable damage you incur including any legal or monetary arising directly or in connection with your access, use, or unauthorized access of the Services.
**4.3 No Guarantee of Rewards**
You understand and agree that we do not guarantee that you will earn or receive any Reward. We expressly disclaim all representations and warranties regarding any Reward including that any: (a) Reward will be received; (b) Reward will occur on a continuous basis; (c) Reward will be on an uninterrupted basis or error-free basis; and (d) any particular Digital Asset will be available in connection with the Reward.
Vanish has no liability for and expressly disclaims any loss, liability, or damage that you may incur directly, indirectly, or in connection with Rewards including, without limitation, damages arising from or in connection with: (a) interruptions to the Service that you access or receive Rewards; (b) the protocols of the applicable blockchain network distributing Rewards; and (c) errors, defects, disruptions, discontinuances, and/or restrictions of Rewards.
VANISH AND ITS THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE ANY REWARD INCLUDING ANY VALIDATION REWARD OR STAKING REWARD. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT VANISH AND THIRD PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY FAILURE BY THE APPLICABLE BLOCKCHAIN NETWORK OR OTHER THIRD PARTY IN DISBURSING ANY REWARD. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT PAST REWARDS ARE NOT INDICATIVE OF EXPECTED FUTURE REWARDS. VANISH WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE OR LIABLE FOR ANY REWARD OR SLASHING PENALTY THAT RESULTS FROM YOUR ACCESS OR USE OF THE SERVICES.
**5. RISK DISCLOSURES**
You understand, accept, and agree to assume all of the various risks involved in interacting with the Platform, the Services, the Protocol, Digital Asset Wallets, Digital Assets, Rewards, and all other services, products, or features directly related to or in connection with these Terms including, without limitation, all risks set forth below.
• Digital Assets, the features, functions, characteristics, operations, use, and other properties and/or software, networks, protocols, systems, or other technology that Digital Assets interact with are complex; and the terms, features, or risks described herein are not a complete or exhaustive list of all such features, risks, or complexities and may not be readily or fully understood due to such complexities.
• Digital Assets will be irretrievably lost if sent to the wrong address. For instance, if the address is improperly formatted, contains an error, or for a different type of Digital Asset.
• Blockchain networks and Digital Assets may be subject to forks or attacks on the security, integrity, and/or operation of the networks, including any network events. These events may affect features, functionality, operations, use, or properties of any Digital Asset or network and/or the value of any Digital Asset.
• Any Digital Asset, the Services, the Platform, and/or the Protocol may be targeted by malicious persons or individuals who may attempt to disrupt the Services or steal Digital Assets including, without limitation, malware, hacking, phishing, double spending, smurfing, spoofing, sybil attacks, social engineering, majority mining, mining attacks, distributed denial of service, and blockchain forks.
• The public nature of the Internet means that parts or the Internet may be unreliable or unavailable at any given time. Interruption, delay, corruption, loss of data, the loss of confidentiality or privacy through the course of data transmission, or malware transmission may occur when transmitting data via the Internet or other technology. This can result in your transaction(s) not being executed according to your instructions, at the requested time, and/or not at all. No technology is completely secure or safe.
• Digital Assets may decrease in value or lose all value, in a short period of time or permanently, due to various factors including, without limitation, government or regulatory activity, the discovery of wrongful or illegal conduct, market manipulation, price distortion, insider dealing, market distortion, malicious wrongdoing or behaviors, changes to the Digital Asset’s nature or characteristics, suspension, or cessation of support for a Digital Asset by exchanges, public opinion, technical advancements, macroeconomic and political factors, and other factors outside of our control.
• Digital Assets stored in a Digital Asset Wallet are not protected deposits and may not be protected by any deposit protection scheme. Thus, Digital Assets have a reduced level and type of protection compared to fiat and other asset classes or types.
• The creation of the Protocol may be abandoned for reasons including without limitation, lack of interest, funding, incapacitation of key developers or project members, lack of commercial success or prospects, or Force Majeure Event (defined below). You understand that there are no assurances regarding any benefit to interacting with the Services, even if the Protocol was partially or fully developed and launched.
• The Services may undergo significant changes over time. We may also limit control over how other visitors and/or users can use the Services and what services are offered on or through the Platform. This could create the risk of the Services not meeting your expectations, for any number of reasons, including mistaken assumptions or analysis, a change in the design and/or implementation plans, or execution on or through the Services.
• We currently rely on our service providers for certain aspects of our operations including cloud computing services and data centers that provide facilities, infrastructure, website functionality and access, components, and services, all of which are critical to our operations. Like most other online companies, because we rely on service providers, we face operational risk. Any interruption in the services provided by our service providers can impair our ability to provide the Services.
• We do not directly manage the operation of the service providers we use including their data center facilities. Such third parties are vulnerable to financial, legal, regulatory, and labor issues, cybersecurity incidents, break-ins, computer viruses, denial-of-service attacks, sabotage, acts of vandalism, privacy breaches, service terminations, disruptions, interruptions, Force Majeure Events, and other events.
• Blockchain transactions like Digital Asset transactions rely on smart contracts stored on various blockchains, cryptographic tokens generated by smart contracts, and other nascent software, applications, and systems that interact with blockchain-based networks. Such technologies are experimental, speculative, inherently risky, and subject to change. A defining feature of blockchain technology is its entries are immutable, which means, as a technical matter, they generally cannot be deleted or modified by anyone. You acknowledge and understand smart contracts dictate how funds and ownership of Digital Assets are distributed.
• You acknowledge and understand that you may be subject to scams and/or other types of fraud perpetrated by parties outside of our control. It is your responsibility to be aware of and protect against such misconduct. In the event that you are subject to such fraud, there is a risk of loss of your Digital Assets.
• All blockchain transactions include data and, in some circumstances, personal data about you. Many blockchain technologies store transaction data publicly and permanently. When you use such public blockchain technology, you intentionally make your transaction data public and acknowledge that this data cannot be deleted, removed, or reversed due to the nature of blockchain technology.
• We are subject to an extensive and rapidly evolving regulatory landscape, and any changes to any law or regulation could adversely impact our ability to offer the Services and/or your use or access to the Services. Such regulatory change may also impact your legal obligations with respect to your use of the Services.
• You understand that smart contract transactions automatically execute and settle, and blockchain-based transactions are irreversible when confirmed. You acknowledge and accept that the cost and speed of transacting with cryptographic and blockchain-based systems are variable and may increase dramatically at any time. You further acknowledge and accept the risk, where applicable, of selecting your slippage rate which expose you to additional cost or fees by the underlying blockchain network.
**6. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND COVENANTS**

**17. DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND MANDATORY ARBITRATION**
Please read this section carefully because it waives any right to participate in any class action or other representative action or proceeding. This section requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and limits the ways in which you can seek relief, including by precluding you from suing in court or having a jury trial.
**17.1 Waiver of Class Actions and Right to Jury Trial**
To the extent permissible by law, any claim, controversy, or dispute arising out of or related to these Terms, or any products or services provided in connection with the Services (each a “Dispute”) must be brought in your individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any putative class, collective action, or representative proceeding (collectively “Class Action Waiver”). The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims or engage in any arbitration on behalf of a class. You agree that, by entering into these Terms, you are waiving the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in a class action.
**17.2 Informal Resolution**
Before filing a claim against Vanish, you agree to try to resolve the Dispute by first emailing [legal@vanish.trade](mailto:legal@vanish.trade)with a description of your claim and proof of your relationship with Vanish. If we can’t resolve the Dispute within sixty days of our receipt of your first email, you or Vanish may then submit the Dispute to binding arbitration as provided herein.
**17.3 Arbitration Agreement**
All Disputes between you and Vanish must be resolved by final and binding arbitration. By agreeing to binding arbitration, you and Vanish expressly waive the right to formal court proceedings including without limitation trial by jury and class action. These Terms affect interstate commerce, and the enforceability of this section will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act 9 U.S.C. § 1, et. Seq. (“FAA”).
**17.4 Conducting Arbitration**
The arbitration shall be conducted by the International Chamber of Commerce (“ICC”) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules (“ICC Rules”) then in effect. If you are a consumer, the most recent version of the ICC Rules can be accessed [here](https://iccwbo.org/dispute-resolution/dispute-resolution-services/arbitration/rules-procedure/2021-arbitration-rules/). These Terms shall govern any conflict between the ICC Rules and these Terms. The location and type of hearing shall be determined in accordance with the ICC Rules. Further, a party’s right to request a hearing shall also be determined in accordance with the ICC Rules. Unless otherwise ordered by an arbitrator or pursuant to the ICC Rules, any in-person arbitration shall be in English and held remotely to the maximum extent and administered in New York, New York, or another mutually agreeable location.
**17.5 Confidentiality**
Vanish, the arbitrator, and you, will each maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments, and awards including information shared and produced during the arbitration.
**17.6 Arbitration Time for Filing**
Any arbitration must be commenced by filing a demand for arbitration within one year after the date the party asserting the claim first knows or reasonably should know of the act, omission or default giving rise to the claim. If applicable law prohibits a one year limitation period for asserting claims, any claim must be asserted within the shortest time period permitted by applicable law. If a claim is not filed within such period, the Dispute is permanently barred.
**17.7 Severability**
If any portion of this section is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms and such severance of the provision(s) shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this section. Further, to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Lastly, if any provision in this section is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, such provision shall have no effect to the extent relief is allowed to be sought outside of arbitration. The remainder of this section shall remain in full force and effect.
**17.8 Modification**
Notwithstanding any term or provision in these Terms to the contrary, you and Vanish agree that if Vanish makes any future material change to this section, we will notify you. Your continued use of the Services including the acceptance of features and services offered following the posting of changes constitutes your acceptance of any such changes.
**18. GOVERNING LAW**
These Terms shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of Panama without regard to conflict of law rules or principles that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. You agree that Vanish may initiate a proceeding relating to the enforceability or validity of its intellectual property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction. With respect to any other proceeding not subject to arbitration under these Terms, the courts of Panama will have exclusive jurisdiction. You waive any objection to venue in any such courts.
**19. AMENDMENTS TO THESE TERMS**
We reserve the right to amend these Terms, any other agreement or document incorporated or referenced in these Terms, and any policy governing the use of the Services at any time and in our sole discretion.

Your continued use of the Services after posting of such amendment constitutes your agreement to be bound by all then-in-effect amendments to these Terms, regardless of whether you have actually reviewed them.

You may be required to provide us with certain information and/or documentation directly or through a third party. You hereby authorize us, directly or through a third party, to make inquires that we consider necessary to verify your identity, protect against the misuse of the Services, or for any other reason in connection with the Services.

When a new user connects their wallet through your link, they are recorded as your referral. From that point forward, a portion of the fees generated by their trades is shared with you.
The base referral reward is **20%**. Earnings accumulate across all referred users and continue as long as they trade.
***
The program features **tiered commission increases** based on the total trading volume of your referrals. Once a milestone is reached, the increased rate is permanent:
* **\$25,000 referred volume** → 22% commission
* **\$100,000 referred volume** → 25% commission
* **\$500,000 referred volume** → 29% commission
* **\$1,500,000 referred volume** → 32.5% commission
***
Active traders benefit from a **Weekly Personal Boost**. If your own trading volume reaches at least \$10,000 in a given week (Monday–Sunday, UTC), your referral commission rate increases by **+2.5%** for the entire following week.

# Vanish Integrity Framework (VIF)
Source: https://docs.vanish.trade/start/integrity
![Compliance Framework3 Pn]()
At the core of Vanish’s approach to privacy and compliance is a simple but effective mechanism: each user operates with their own single fixed deposit and withdrawal address. Users cannot send private payments or mask peer-to-peer transfers within the protocol.
The **same wallet in, same wallet out** system ensures:
* Verifiable links between all deposits and withdrawals
* No obfuscation of origin or destination
* Address hopping completely disabled
While trading activity remains shielded, the movement of funds in and out of Vanish maintains a clear, auditable path. Traders maintain protection over *what* they trade only after funds are properly vetted and screened, with sanctions monitoring ensuring no illicit funds enter or exit the protocol.
## **Sanctions & Exposure Monitoring**
Every deposit and withdrawal undergoes multi-layered screening, with continuous monitoring to detect illicit flows.
* **Direct and indirect exposure checks:** both sanctioned wallets and close counterparties (1-hop) are flagged.
* **Cross-chain visibility:** suspicious activity across 90+ blockchains is tracked in real time.
* **Continuous screening:** all flows are checked against OFAC and global sanctions lists.
* **Geo-restrictions:** access blocked from the U.S., U.K., OFAC-sanctioned, and other high-risk jurisdictions.

### **Industry Leading Compliance Partners**
***Elliptic***
The leading blockchain data and intelligence platform trusted by banks, FIs, governments, crypto native businesses and regulators for compliance, risk management and intelligence operations. Elliptic’s platform has the highest uptime, scalability and response times by a significant margin and supports market leading organizations such as Coinbase, Revolut, Binance and provides Vanish with real-time, multi-asset risk detection for AML compliance.
***Range***
On the backend, every transaction passing through Vanish is screened in real time to detect illicit exposure. Trusted by Jupiter, Solana, and PumpFun, Range is one of the leading blockchain security and intelligence platforms — and the market leader in Solana.
Range’s screening solution is natively cross-chain, so in addition to performing sanctions checks, it also flags known bad actors from other ecosystems. Backed by their [Cross-Chain Explorer](https://explorer.range.org/), Range currently tracks transactions across 90+ chains to provide complete visibility into asset flows.
This is the same technology that underpins the [Solana Transaction Security Standard](https://www.range.org/transaction-security) and secures every multisig on Squads Protocol, safeguarding over \$20B in assets. Acting as the control tower, Range delivers Vanish real-time screening, KYB/KYT analytics, and continuous sanctions monitoring, ensuring no illicit funds enter or exit the protocol.

### **Real-Time AML Screening & Risk Controls**
![0 Qmm2ihr5f F Qkr UK7 Web]()
Vanish is purpose-built to safeguard all traders from front-running, and alpha leakage, without compromising on preventing illicit funds from poisoning the protocol.
* Every deposit and withdrawal is screened in real time by Elliptic and Range to uphold a clean trading environment and deter illicit activity.
* Continuous checks via Elliptic and Range against OFAC and global sanctions lists detecting fraud and high‑risk wallets.
* Range provides KYB/KYT monitoring to flag high-risk counterparties and suspicious transaction patterns.
* Strict geo-blocking to prevent access from sanctioned or restricted regions.
By embedding these controls at the protocol level, Vanish ensures that compliance is not an afterthought but a foundational layer.

### **Vanish’s Security Infrastructure**
![0 4T Fqut0h Wl6h6p La Web]()
***Turnkey***
Scalable wallet infrastructure built on hardware Trusted Execution Environments (TEEs). Vanish never holds user private keys; all cryptographic operations like key generation, signing, and encryption are performed in secure enclaves, isolated from the system.
***Groom Lake***
The “private military corporation of crypto,” staffed by NSA and CIA veterans. Groom Lake actively protects billions in DeFi assets, providing Vanish with operational security, live threat monitoring, penetration testing, incident response, and global intelligence support to detect and neutralize risks before they impact the protocol.
***
## **Privacy and Compliance as Pillars**
Vanish is purpose-built to safeguard traders from front-running and alpha leakage, without compromising on preventing illicit funds from poisoning the protocol.
By pairing transparent fund flows with industry-leading sanctions screening and military-grade security, Vanish proves that privacy and compliance can coexist, not as compromises, but as reinforcing pillars.

Vanish enables private trading with integrity on Solana, designed for traders who value privacy, speed, and security. \
\
Onchain transparency is both a strength and a weakness: every trade is visible, exposing strategies to frontrunning, copy traders, and unwanted attention. Vanish introduces shielded execution, providing instant private swaps for legitimate traders while preventing misuse from bad actors.
***
* **Shield** — Connect to Vanish’s shielded execution layer, removing the direct on-chain link between trades.
* **Trade** — Execute with shielded execution, accessing deep liquidity at market prices and protecting strategies from exposure.
* **Unshield** — Settle trades back to your wallet, restoring the on-chain connection without revealing your execution path.
***
Vanish leverages smart trade routing across shielded liquidity sources to maintain trade privacy. Pricing and execution remain competitive through leading aggregators, with the critical distinction that your wallet and strategies stay unlinkable on-chain. \
\
This privacy is reinforced by the Vanish Integrity Framework (VIF), a compliance-first layer that screens every flow and enforces strict safeguards against illicit activity, ensuring traders gain protection without compromising regulatory trust.
