Private Mode Step-by-Step Guide

Private Swap is a core feature of LibertySwap 2.0 that allows users to swap directly from Railgun balances into assets on other blockchains, all while remaining private.

First Step: Prepare a Railgun-Supported Wallet

To use Liberty Swap Private Mode, users must have a wallet that support Railgun and 0zk addresss. Your tokens into a compatible privacy smart contract of Railgun using a supported wallet interface which is very secure and standing the test of time, and thoroughly audited.

Check out a list of RAILGUN powered wallets here.

Shielded balances are chain specific. A shielded balance on Ethereum is separate from shielded balances on BNB Chain or other networks. Before LibertySwap, these balances could not exchange or communicate with each other. We are here to change that.
