Hyperliquid has become the leading destination for serious perpetual traders. Its liquidity, speed, and market depth are unmatched. However, there is one feature that every user gets whether they want it or not, and that’s a fully transparent order book.
For most traders, transparency is not an issue. For large wallets however, it can create edge erosion. A trader’s positions, size, PnL, and liquidation levels are all public. An industry of copybots has built up around parsing that data and acting on it within seconds. Competitors build intelligence off your publicised strategies, and clustering tools map wallet relationships across multiple data points.
We built ShieldTX to help large volume traders efficiently close that gap. It is the first private perpetual trading platform on Hyperliquid. It’s built on Avail's infrastructure and it gives traders access to Hyperliquid, without the public exposure.
What ShieldTX Does
The mechanics are simple. You can deposit USDC into ShieldTX via Nexus from every major EVM chain. When you open a trade, a fresh, shielded wallet is funded for that position and the order routes directly to Hyperliquid's native order book. When you close, proceeds return to your shielded balance. Observers may see the deposit, but they do not see what happens next, and they cannot link your trading activity back to the wallet you funded from.
You get to access the same liquidity, same fills, and every Hyperliquid perp market. The only difference is your positions, PnL, and liquidation levels are no longer tied to your public profile and copy bots that follow your wallet cannot follow your ShieldTX trades.
Why We Built ShieldTX For High-Volume Traders
When copybots mirror trades, their follow-on volume pushes price against you on larger orders. Based on what we have observed in our analysis, ShieldTX can save between 15 and 25 basis points per trade by breaking the public data trail that copybots act on. This saving compounds significantly for high volume traders.
To highlight the problem faced by popular wallets, we developed a wallet scanner that shows the public data that copybots act upon and exposes how their trades are being effected. You can scan your wallet to see who’s copying your trades.
ShieldTX also removes operational friction as manual wallet rotation does not fix the exposure problem. Clustering tools still link wallets through timing, amounts, and behavior. Managing multiple balances fragments your capital and adds risk. Routing through a centralized exchange pulls you off Hyperliquid entirely. ShieldTX replaces those workarounds with one balance and shielded wallets on demand.
Funds, institutions, and regulated desks have compliance requirements they cannot avoid. ShieldTX is built with institutional compliance in mind with an architecture they can work with.
Who It’s For
We designed ShieldTX for traders who operate at a scale where public visibility becomes a cost:
- Institutions and funds whose public positions leak signal and attract front-running.
- Market makers whose inventory and order flow are visible to competitors in real time.
- Fund managers whose wallet is their brand, and whose drawdowns or liquidations can trigger investor redemptions.
- Individual whales who want to trade size without becoming a target for whale hunters or copybot networks.
Where We Are
ShieldTX is live in private beta. Over $1M has already traded through the platform. We are expanding access to teams and individual traders who fit the profiles above and who want to test private execution on Hyperliquid.
Apply for private beta access. Private beta members receive discounted pricing. If your team trades size on Hyperliquid and public exposure is a cost you are tired of paying, we would like to hear from you.
