# Overview

#### What is DarkSwap?

DarkSwap is the flagship trading product within the Singularity ecosystem — a modular privacy infrastructure built for DeFi traders. It enables users to execute trades without exposure to MEV bots, sandwich attacks, or slippage.

DarkSwap focuses on **protecting traders from systemic exploitation**, not just privacy for its own sake.

* **Sandwich attacks** increasing trading costs
* **Front-running tactics** harming regular traders

DarkSwap serves as a **frontline defense** for users.
