COTI has rolled out PriveX, a new decentralized trading platform that puts privacy and performance front and center. Built on COTI’s privacy infrastructure and now live on its mainnet, PriveX is designed to deliver a centralized exchange-like experience in a fully decentralized environment—without exposing sensitive trade data on-chain.
With support for over 300 perpetual trading pairs, PriveX targets institutional-grade performance while protecting traders from common vulnerabilities like front-running and strategy leaks. The platform’s intent-based execution model lets users set specific trade parameters, which are then discreetly executed by a private backend powered by Symmio. Liquidity is sourced from both decentralized and centralized markets—including major players like Binance—allowing users to execute trades seamlessly and securely.
Unlike traditional DEXs that publicly reveal user actions before they happen, PriveX is the first platform to use COTI’s Garbled Circuits protocol for post-trade privacy. This means transaction data is masked until after execution, helping to reduce slippage and safeguard proprietary strategies—especially important for the autonomous AI agents that the platform aims to support.
“PriveX exemplifies the kind of innovation we’re enabling at COTI,” said Shahaf Bar-Geffen, COTI CEO. “Where privacy, performance, and AI come together to serve real-world trading needs.”
At its core, PriveX relies on a solver network to monitor user-defined trade intents. When market conditions align, the trade is executed privately, preserving both anonymity and precision. The architecture is designed to scale with next-gen DeFi tools, including AI trading agents, which will soon gain further support through a dedicated portal and enhanced composability features.
