Privacy and Crypto Swaps: Why It Matters
5 min readShadowSwap Team
Cryptocurrency was designed to give users more control over their money. Identity-free swaps align with that goal: you don't hand over personal data to swap one asset for another.
Non-custodial by design
With a non-custodial swap, you never leave your receiving address in the hands of the service beyond the transaction. Funds go in, get exchanged, and go out—no long-term custody or account balance.
Best practices
Use a wallet you control. Double-check addresses and networks. Keep your receiving address private if you care about on-chain privacy. These habits make no-KYC swaps both simple and safer.
