Protocol overview

Hush is an execution layer for Cardano users who care about the outcome of a transaction without exposing the full intent behind it.

The execution promise

You define the result first: the asset you are willing to spend, the asset you expect back, and the minimum acceptable amount. Hush searches for a route that satisfies those constraints and settles only when the complete outcome is available.

Private by default

The market does not need to see your hand. Hush keeps the request private while competing routes are evaluated, reducing unnecessary signaling around your trade or payment.

Exact amount or nothing

Slippage and incomplete routes should not turn a clear requirement into a surprise. Hush treats the expected amount as a hard condition: if it cannot be met, the transaction does not settle.

Sponsored network fee

Hush can sponsor the network fee so the user experience stays focused on the amount being exchanged rather than the mechanics of submitting the transaction.

Direct wallet settlement

There is no new custodial balance to manage. Once the transaction is signed and accepted, the agreed assets settle directly to the destination wallet.
