SilenDex

SilenDex is a privacy-first decentralized exchange (DEX) designed to protect user intent, trade history, and liquidity positioning through zero-knowledge mechanisms and stealth infrastructure. Built as part of the Silensio ecosystem, SilenDex redefines how users interact with DeFi markets by eliminating the exposure typically associated with on-chain trading.

Traditional DEXs, while decentralized in custody and execution, remain fully transparent in terms of order flow and wallet activity. This visibility enables front-running, MEV attacks, and wallet profiling. SilenDex solves this by making all core trading activity private by default.


🔐 Key Features

Trade from zkWallet SilenDex integrates directly with privacy-preserving wallets like SilenWallet, enabling users to execute trades without revealing their primary wallet address or token balance to the public mempool.

Invisible Order Flow Order creation, execution, and cancellation occur off-chain or within shielded environments using zero-knowledge proofs. This prevents external actors from monitoring, copying, or interfering with trade behavior.

Stealth Liquidity Pools Liquidity providers can supply tokens into encrypted pools where pricing and depth are obfuscated. Pool balances, LP identities, and AMM curves are masked from external visibility, reducing the risk of manipulation or tracking.


⚙️ How It Works

SilenDex operates as a hybrid system combining private off-chain order management with on-chain settlement verified through zero-knowledge proofs. Users interact with a confidential matching engine that ensures trade execution without revealing sensitive trade metadata.

  • Users initiate trades through their zkWallet without exposing sender identity

  • Orders are matched in a private layer based on shielded intents

  • Zero-knowledge proofs validate the trade logic and ensure correctness

  • Final settlement is conducted on-chain with encrypted routing and stealth transfers
