Privacy-focused on-chain DEX leveraging MPC/ZKP technology
Overview
Renegade is a decentralized exchange that operates as an on-chain dark pool, keeping users' balances and trade histories private from third parties. It uses Multi-Party Computation (MPC) and Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP) to protect privacy and security. Trades occur at midpoint prices to minimize price impact and slippage, which is especially helpful for large orders. The platform earns fees on trades and emphasizes absence of counterparty risk and the inability of others to copy trading strategies. The goal is to provide private, low-friction trade execution in the DeFi market.

Simplify's Take
What believers are saying
- As of June 16, 2026, DeFiLlama shows $128,963 TVL, proving continued on-chain usage.
- Renegade’s May 2026 exploit recovered $190,000, limiting net protocol loss to roughly $21,000.
- The team still markets live trading on Arbitrum and Base, indicating active product support.
What critics are saying
- May 11, 2026’s V1 Arbitrum exploit exposed initialization and migration failures.
- Only 7% of trading touched V1, but hidden control-path bugs threaten V2 and Base.
- Another privacy breach destroys user trust and kills Renegade’s institutional dark-pool thesis.
What makes Renegade unique
- Renegade runs a live on-chain dark pool on Arbitrum and Base, not transparent AMM.
- Its midpoint-pegged trades use Binance bid-ask anchoring, avoiding slippage and price impact.
- MPC and zero-knowledge privacy hide balances and trade history from counterparties and observers.
