Move a token from your wallet into your private balance.
Choose a token.USDC, HYPE or any other token listed on Elysium.
Choose a size.Sizes are fixed. They show as buttons. Many people use the same sizes, and that is what keeps you hard to pick out.
Sign in your wallet.The app then says "Ready in your private balance."
If you want to deposit more
Make several deposits of the fixed size. The app suggests a smaller size when yours is too big for the pool.
What stays public
The deposit itself. Your wallet sent a fixed amount to HYDE, and anyone can see that. What is not visible is where that money goes next. See What the public sees.
Use HYDE
Send
Pay someone from your private balance. The public does not see who paid whom.
Enter an address or a name.The app checks it before you go on.
Enter an amount.If it is too big, the app says "Split into 3 sends." and offers to do it for you.
Send.You pay no network fee to send.
Sending in parts
A large send in one move is easy to match with a large deposit. Parts are harder to match. When the anonymity bar drops to Weak, send in parts.
Use HYDE
Swap on Elysium
Change one Elysium token for another without leaving your private balance.
Pick the two tokens.Any Elysium token that is listed. HYPE and USDC are the usual targets.
Enter an amount.Then choose "Swap in next batch".
Wait for the batch.The app shows a countdown. Your swap runs at the next batch on the Elysium DEXs and lands in your private balance.
Why a batch
Your swap joins other swaps and runs with them. The public sees a group of trades, not yours alone.
If a swap is too big, the app says "Split into 3 swaps." Follow it.
Use HYDE
Trade with a Hyde account
A Hyde account is a fresh Hyperliquid perps account, opened from your private balance.
Go to Trade.Enter the amount you want to trade with.
Choose "Open a Hyde account".Funds arrive in several waves. The app shows how many have arrived.
Trade on Hyperliquid.The account shows in "Hyde accounts" with its number, its balance and its PnL. Use "Open on Hyperliquid" to go to it.
What is private
The account has no link to your wallet. No one can tell that you own it.
What is not
The order book is public. Your orders, positions, PnL and liquidation price are public on that account.
Tools that track accounts can mark it as funded by HYDE.
HYDE hides who you are. It does not hide what the account does. Do not reuse the account for things that point back to you.
Use HYDE
Withdraw
Send funds from your private balance to any address.
Enter the address.It can be a new one that has no history.
Enter a size.
Choose how."Fast" arrives at once. "In waves" arrives in parts over time and is the one we recommend.
Why waves
A single large withdrawal is easy to match with a deposit made a moment before. Waves spread it out, so the match is harder to make.
What stays public
The receiving address gets funds from HYDE, and anyone can see that. No one can tell which deposit they came from.
How it stays private
The private balance
One balance for any Elysium token. Only you can see it.
One pool for all tokens
Every token goes into the same pool. One pool means one crowd to hide in, and it grows as more people use it.
It earns while it waits
Your balance earns yield. The app shows the real rate and nothing else. Before yield starts, it says "Yield starts soon."
Yield matters for privacy. People leave funds in the pool because they earn, so the crowd stays large.
The anonymity bar
The bar under your balance has three states.
Good. Your move is small next to the pool.
Medium. Your move is noticeable.
Weak. Your move is too big. The app tells you what to do, for example "Split into 3 sends."
How it stays private
What the public sees
For each action: what shows, and what never shows.

Withdraw
Shows

Never shows

In short
Money going in is visible. Money going out is visible. The link between the two is not.
How it stays private
Staying hard to link
HYDE hides the link. Your habits can bring it back. Follow these rules.
Wait between deposit and use
A deposit followed at once by a withdrawal of the same amount is easy to match. Leave funds in the balance. Let it earn.
Use common sizes
Pick the fixed sizes that the app offers. Many people use them, so you look like many people.
Split big moves
When the anonymity bar says Weak, cut the move. The app tells you how: "Split into 3 sends." Choose "In waves" when you withdraw.
Keep your habits apart
Do not send from a Hyde account to your public wallet.
Do not name a Hyde account anywhere that knows your name.
Use a new address for each withdrawal.
Be honest with yourself
Small and medium amounts blend well. A very large amount stands out in any pool. HYDE is built for the first case.

Fees and limits
Fees can change, but never above 1%. Pay in $HYDE and you pay half.
Fees
The full table is on the Token page. The app shows the cost before you sign.
Limits
Fixed sizes. Deposits use fixed sizes, shown as buttons.
Pool size. A move that is big next to the pool shows Weak on the bar. The app then asks you to split it.
Small and medium amounts. HYDE is not made for very large amounts.

The buyback
Fees paid in another token go to the buyback.
Fees come in.From swaps, exits, sends and private Hyperliquid accounts.
The buyback runs after each swap batch.Right after each 30-min batch, it buys $HYDE on an Elysium DEX, at the average price of that batch.
The split.50% is burned. 40% goes to private locks. 10% goes to the treasury.
Creator fees from the launch go to the buyback too, in full.
Private locks
You lock $HYDE inside your private balance, in fixed sizes.
Sizes

100k

Durations
30 days, weight 1
90 days, weight 1.5

Share. Locks share the 40% of the buyback, by weight, each epoch.
Perk. A lock of 100k or more opens private Hyperliquid accounts at 0% fees.
Cohorts. Locks start in weekly cohorts.
Claim. You claim your share when the lock ends.
Why it can't be farmed
No reward comes from new tokens. Every gain comes from fees that a real user paid.
An owner who pays fees to their own wallets loses 60%: 50% burned, 10% to the treasury. They always end at a loss.
No deposit rewards. No points. No volume airdrop.
