what's Renegade?
Renegade is a decentralized exchange protocol operating as crypto's first on-chain dark pool. It enables large ERC-20 token trades with zero price impact by matching buy and sell orders anonymously at midpoint prices, shielding users from front-running and preserving liquidity. The protocol leverages multi-party computation (MPC) for order crossing and zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to ensure privacy and trustlessness. Users submit encrypted orders that are matched off-chain in a secure manner before settlement on-chain, providing institutional-grade execution in a fully decentralized environment.
Renegade's Arbitrum One transaction count rose 295% by March 16, 2026.
