0trace — truly private instant exchange

[casey15]

Very good questions, thank you.

1. “Liquidity routing” is simply an extremely honest description from our side. All core liquidity is ours. For some directions (for example SOL → USDT on Solana), we may use DEX infrastructure for automatic swap execution and payout processing. We never share user data with third parties, and never will.

2. Even the clearnet version is designed to be as privacy-oriented as possible from the service side. We do not keep logs, do not store order data longer than necessary, and do not request or collect user information beyond what is technically required to complete a swap. The clearnet version also does not connect any external resources such as analytics systems, tracking scripts, metrics platforms, or third-party monitoring services.

The Tor version exists to provide more stable and native operation inside the Tor network and its infrastructure.

That all makes sense. A question though, if the entire core liquidity is held internally and no logs or external analytics/monitoring services are kept how do you then perform abuse prevention, fraud patterns monitoring, up-time, attack monitoring, troubleshooting or dispute resolution? Do you maintain some in-memory temporary monitoring solution or is it all done strictly at transaction level without any auditable records maintained.

Updated the liquidity and routing description.
Some wording could be interpreted ambiguously.

0trace uses exclusively its own liquidity and never shares swap data with third-party liquidity providers via API.

If I may say focusing on internal liquidity really highlights the difference in service in terms of privacy compared to other exchanges.....

​That said, what are your plans to keep your service stable and reliable for users in times when the market is moving rapidly or is highly volatile? I am just curious because I believe it's all about long lasting potential and value that's all.....

Every new company will always give you a positive feedback on this question the only time we are going to fine out the real answer is as time goes on and they start having rapid growth then we are going to see their real potential as for now they will always give us a good and positive response to make us more calm, but let see how things will go for them however with their response I believe they are going to do well but time will tell.
Good question though.

Thank you for the positive words and attention to the project.

No — 0trace is not a mixer. We are a privacy-focused instant exchange service.
A mixer is specifically designed to obfuscate the transaction history of the same asset by pooling and redistributing funds between multiple participants.
0trace works differently. We process regular cryptocurrency swaps between different assets and networks using our own liquidity and exchange infrastructure.

Privacy and mixing are not the same thing.

Thank you for responding as well, it is encouraging to see representatives addressing users questions for clarification. And from what you have explained so far, I am now convinced that Otrace is not a mixer, rather a cryptocurrency exchange that promote pure privacy.
 
I also tried to explore your platform and the image below puped up. Since the Otrace exchange is still undergoing update process I would check back later to see if there are any areas I that may require further clarifications, thanks.
