Make a private trade
Buy or sell tokenized stocks entirely inside the shield. Your size, timing, and direction stay off the public tape — nothing for a bot to front-run or a wallet-watcher to mirror.
Before you trade
- A shielded balance in
USDG. - The market you want, e.g. a tokenized equity like AAPLx.
Place the trade
cowl trade buy 1200 AAPLxThe order is a zero-knowledge proof, not a public intent. It settles against the pool without ever exposing what you did.
Why it can’t be gamed
- No front-run.A bot can’t sandwich an order it can’t see.
- No copy-trade.A watcher can’t mirror an entry that never appears.
See MEV & anti copy-trade for the full picture.
