# Shield and Unshield Your Coins with Liberty Shield

## Step 1. Prepare a clean execution wallet

`Use a fresh EVM wallet. This wallet should have no public history tied to your identity.`

`Do not use wallets previously posted on X, Discord, or GitHub.`

This wallet is only for receiving and using unshielded funds later.

## Step 2. Shield funds using LibertySwap. Inbound

`Go to Shield mode.`\
`Select ETH.`\
`Enter an amount using common, rounded values.`\
`Enter your Railway wallet private 0zk address.`\
`Confirm the shield transaction.`

Why this is safe?

* LibertySwap pays the transaction fee.
* No personal wallet sponsors gas.
* Your funding wallet is not linked to the Railgun withdrawal later.

## Step 3. Wait. Do nothing.

`Do not unshield immediately.`\
`Wait hours or days.`\
`Let your funds blend into the anonymity set.`

Time variance is privacy.<br>

## Step 4. Unshield using LibertySwap. Outbound

\
`Switch to Unshield mode.`\
`Select ETH. RAILGUN.`\
`Enter a non unique, rounded amount.`\
`Enter the clean execution wallet address.`\
`Confirm.`

Key protection:

* LibertySwap pays the fee.
* No external gas payer wallet.
* No A → B correlation possible.

## Step 5. Optional. Private cross chain or private swap

If you want to move or trade:

`Use Exchange → Private mode.`

`Swap ETH. RAILGUN directly to PLS or other supported assets.`

`Receive directly into your clean execution wallet.`

You will have PLS to pay gas on PulseChain

## Step 6. Post execution discipline

`Do not immediately trade, deploy, or bridge.`

`Avoid deterministic sequences like unshield → deploy token.`

`Introduce delays and randomness.`

Behavior is metadata.

## Step 7. Social OPSEC. Critical

`Do not post transactions on X.`

`Do not flex timing.`

`Do not reuse known addresses.`

Once inside Railgun, disappear.
