Congrats team, so proud of all the work. ShieldTX breaks the links between funding and positions on Hyperliquid by creating new wallets for every trade. That's the key to protecting traders' signal, reputation and strategies from copy bots, competitors and media.
AVAIL enters the Hyperliquid ecosystem with @ShieldTXxyz Why Hyperliquid, and why now? Hyperliquid is where a lack of privacy costs large traders on every trade, and public exposure is holding back desks and funds who want to trade there. After screening 332,317 wallets over 30 days, ShieldTX studied the impact of copy-trading on seven top perp traders and found a median execution loss of 63 bps per trade. Hyperliquid can't capture the flow that needs privacy while every position remains public. ShieldTX routes that flow to @HyperliquidX, with the enterprise-grade privacy large traders need. We've spent months speaking with whales, trading desks, market makers and digital asset funds who want to use the platform without the public exposure. They want privacy from competitors and copy-bots, without giving up compliance. The current solutions aren't enough: • Hyperliquid sub-accounts link to the main account onchain • Multi-wallet rotation gets exposed by Arkham and other analytics platforms • Third-party privacy solutions still expose a trader's PnL onchain ShieldTX is built to close this gap. Every trade is placed on Hyperliquid from a brand-new Hyperliquid wallet. Nothing links the trade onchain to the trader, and nothing links the trades together. A full trading history is available to users for audits and compliance. ShieldTX is the on-ramp for crypto-native desks today, and the institutions who come next.

We get asked a lot. How hard is ShieldTX to use? It's as simple as using Hyperliquid, because all the hard work happens in the background. You simply deposit, open, close. Every trade goes through a brand-new wallet, with nothing linking you or your trading history onchain.

We’ve been working on this for some time. Excited for ShieldTX!🛡️
We’ve been working on ShieldTX: shielded Hyperliquid perps for traders who care about public wallet exposure. Private beta is coming soon - shieldtx.xyz We also have a wallet exposure scanner for Hyperliquid: check public activity, possible copy-trader pressure, and data quality from a wallet address - scanner.shieldtx.xyz

Shielded execution is coming🛡️
ShieldTX is a perp trading app that routes your Hyperliquid trades through fresh wallets. Your positions, PnL, and liquidation levels are not tied to your main wallet. Same order book, separate identity.

New thing we are working on. dm for access :-)
Perps are phenomenal assets to trade. Hyperliquid is so easy and fast to interface. The order book has good liquidity. But if you are a whale or an institution or a fund manager or a trader who wants to keep some experiments private How do you do it? Can you imagine the reputational scrutiny and community backlash everytime you liquidate? On top of it, you'd ACTUALLY be surprised how every wallet on HL leaderboard is being followed and clustered by tools and bots. We are building something for you without you having to give up Hyperliquid. DM if you want early eyes 👀 PS: Sorry if I can't give everyone access right away. It's in early, early, early beta and we've already had $$$$ in volumes. We're moving slow and steady before accelerate. We want to get this right!

Avail Atomic is live 💥
AMMs just got an upgrade. @QuickswapDEX now has real order book execution. Same app, no bridge, no custody handoff. Orders route through KalqiX, a trustless ZK CLOB, settled atomically on Avail Atomic by @AvailProject. A first for on-chain trading.

Avail Nexus now supports cross-chain transactions of up to $10M. Nexus is expanding its execution capacity to support significantly larger transfers enabled by deeper liquidity access through @Mayan, while preserving the seamless UX apps & users expect. Here’s what it unlocks👇

Very cool work by the Brevis team! It's crazy that almost every Ethereum block is provable in under the block time now.
Pico Prism 2.0 is live 🔥 Real-time Ethereum proving on the 60M gas mainnet blocks Ethereum runs today. 🧵

Love the animated explainer!
60–90% of your users give up before they even reach your app. Not because your product is bad, but because they had to bridge first. Avail Deposits fixes that. Deposit from any EVM chain, in one transaction, without ever leaving your app.

If you're active in DeFi, your capital is never in one place. Every time a new opportunity opens up, you need to figure out where your funds are, bridge, get gas, switch networks & wait. Now imagine all that happening in one transaction. This is 𝗙𝗮𝘀𝘁𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗱𝗴𝗲 by Avail.

Excited that @kalqix will be launching soon on Avail!
High-frequency trading infrastructure needs a data layer that doesn't flinch. That's what Avail DA is for. Here's what it looks like in production with @KalqiX 🧵

I tried @Showdown_TCG and I have thoughts. The deposit flow could be a lot smoother with Avail deposit. > one single step > use any tokens > across any chain cc @StanCifka @AvailProject
