Baltex.io just rolled out its new “Private Swaps” feature on November 24, 2025.
Now, users can swap assets across different blockchains and actually keep things private; the whole deal happens with real on-chain anonymity.
For non-custodial crypto platforms, this is a big step forward.
They’ve managed to blend interoperability with real privacy, all while regulators keep tightening the screws on blockchain transparency.
What Private Swaps Do
Most blockchains put everything out in the open.
Anyone can track your funds from one wallet to the next.
Private Swaps flips that script. Baltex uses Monero (XMR) as a privacy shield, breaking the on-chain link between your deposit and the payout address.
Here’s what actually happens: you send your crypto to a one-time deposit address, the funds take a trip through Monero’s privacy protocol, and then Baltex delivers your chosen asset to the recipient’s wallet.
There’s no public trail connecting the final payout to your original deposit.
Baltex says the whole thing is non-custodial. They never hold your funds; you stay in control the entire time.
How does it work?
- First, you pick “Private” mode when starting a swap (instead of the usual “Efficient” mode).
- Baltex then creates a unique deposit address just for you.
- Your funds move through Monero, which scrambles transaction history and severs any link between where your money started and where it ends up.
- Finally, your selected asset lands in the destination wallet, clean and untraceable from the original deposit.
As for speed and cost, most swaps finish in about 10–20 minutes, depending on how busy the Monero network is.
Fees start at 0.4%. Private swaps run right alongside Baltex’s other swap options, so you can choose whether you want top-tier privacy or the fastest route.

Why This Matters
The launch lands right as regulatory pressure ramps up, on-chain surveillance gets tougher, and people start caring more about financial privacy.
Blockchains, by default, put everything out in the open, like wallet balances and transaction histories.
That’s a problem if you’re looking for privacy, whether you’re an individual, a company that wants to keep things under wraps, or even a government.
Baltex’s Private Swaps steps in here. It lets you move assets between blockchains without putting your business on display, all while keeping things fast and non-custodial.
You still get a huge range of assets to work with, over 1,000, and it plugs into all the big chains.
Baltex is going for flexibility and privacy, aiming to stand out in a space that usually puts everything in the spotlight.
If you’re a high-net-worth individual, a privacy-focused fund, someone running OTC trades, or just a regular user who doesn’t want the world peeking at your finances, this tool helps you keep control.
In a crypto world that feels more public and regulated every day, Baltex wants to give you some privacy back.
