Privacy ecosystem built on NEAR intents & ZK proofs | $SHADE

Launch, Swap, Earn. Private.

Our first weekly article, now every sunday. It covers post-launch update logs, and goes more into the technical side of things. https://t.co/isrJexuLN9

Fees earned through the sale and opening of these packs directly contributes back into the Shaded ecosystem.

A portion of the margin buys backs & burns SHADE. The other half goes to the pools. Dispersed automatically.

You can now open gacha packs via ZEC on https://t.co/5zM5B9Ae9X

deposit anything, gacha in private.

Did somebody say gacha?

5/ Same in the Swap tab:

Swap your private SOL into ZEC and receive it as a shielded note.

Priced in ZEC. Every trade is recorded on Zcash. Traded on Solana.

1/ Memecoins, priced in ZEC.

Launch on Shaded and your coin's curve trades in ZEC, not SOL. Every trade gets a Zcash transaction that records it. And now you can cash out straight to your Zcash wallet, shielded.

4/ Under the hood:

NEAR Intents pays a one-time address that only your browser has the key to. When the ZEC lands, your browser moves all of it into Zcash's shielded pool for your u1 address.

The one-time address is public. Where the note goes or which address before that set it up, isn't.

Hey there,

takes 1 minute to read our post right above and confirm that we are still using our own relay. Now we're also offering privacycash as an OPTIONAL pool route.

All shielding, private launching etc. is still done by us, end-to-end.

Then it takes another minute to figure out that all of our proprietary tech is still there, and we only added this to have more thick-liquidity pools available.

If anything, please refer to /docs on the web.

Thank you for your attention to this matter and I hope this answered your question.

Launching, Swapping and Shielding just became a whole lot easier!

We've fully reworked the Shaded UI with the user in mind. Decluttered, dropped unused features and doubled down on what works.

We've also added new routes and pools via @theprivacycash

2/ We've been happy with the community feedback so far, and encourage everyone to leave behind their thoughts on what they want to see next.

We are far from done. Today's UI overhaul is expected to significantly increase actual productivity, everything is straight-forward with clear step by step instructions.

This is the end of this post.

1/ The median anonymity on shaded pools is still higher than ideal, this is expected for such a short lifespan and will only grow over time.

So far we're dedicating atleast half of all protocol revenue to thickening these pools.

But, for anyone that wishes to be truly private, we have now added privacy cash pools. These pools take a slightly bigger fee of 1%.

50% of that automatically gets sent back to Shaded pools

The other 50% buys-back and burns solana:HgSyn9PW73cNd6KZx9r7TydWB4fKnMWToSH238EC7ray

Are you ready for the new Shaded?

[shaded @shadedzk]

Want to drop in and share what's currently being worked on:

1. Major UI overhaul in the works, less cluttered and more user focused quality of life changes.
2. Shaded Wallet extension: allowing for easy access to anonymous wallets, swapping and shielding while on the go - anywhere on the web.

Timeline for both is a total of 2 weeks including this one. Includes timeline for approval process by Google.

3. We will keep shipping smaller updates here and there during this period, such as new venues to launch tokens and possibly new privacy features.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

We are still in review for blue tick.

How it works:

1/ You deposit SOL (or any token for that matter) onto https://t.co/aq8tCX27Wy

2/ you shield said tokens. They are now private and sit in our pool.

3/ Your wallet doesn't launch the token, we do. You simply hold a ZK-proof note that only you can read.

4/ This note entitles you to the earnings of said coins and the initial dev buy supply.

5/ You now earn from the trading fees generated, 70% sent to the dev and 30% added back into our pools.

6/ More liquidity in the pools enhances anonymity, every transaction supports the Shaded network.

[shaded @shadedzk]

You can now privately swap any coin using @NEARProtocol intents. Fully obfuscated and private from your existing private balance.

@LaunchOnSF Added as a launch option for private launches.

Fund your wallet -> Shield it -> It's now private -> Launch or swap -> Earn.

30% of earnings dedicated to strengthening pool liquidity.

We've added support for @Pumpfun on Shaded v2 launches.

Launch a pump token. Funded privately - 70% of its fees get sent to you, routed through our privacy pools.

30% gets added to the pools. Bigger pools = more anonymity
