## What is Vanish Core?

Vanish Core is the API that powers private trading on Solana. It plugs directly into existing DEX infrastructure - compatible with any aggregator, with no changes to routing logic, slippage configuration, or execution parameters. Trades execute privately with \~200ms overhead. No stack rebuild required.

## How It Works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Fund your account">
    Deposit SOL or SPL tokens. Once confirmed and committed on-chain, the balance is live and ready to trade.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Execute a private trade">
    Build a standard swap transaction using any DEX aggregator. Submit it to Vanish - it wraps the transaction and routes it privately through a one-time wallet, submitting via Jito bundle or returning a signed payload for self-broadcast.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Commit the result">
    Call `/commit` with the transaction signature. Vanish settles the trade and updates the balance. On-chain failures revert atomically - no manual action needed.
  </Step>
</Steps>

### Trade Mechanics

Every trade is routed through a disposable one-time wallet, temporarily funded from Vanish's trading accounts. The originating wallet is never exposed as a transaction signer on-chain.

The wrapped trade submits as a Jito bundle by default - or as a fully signed payload for self-broadcast. Settlement is atomic: output tokens land in the balance, the one-time wallet is discarded, and the originating address leaves no on-chain trace. From submission to settlement: \~200ms.
