This guide walks you through opening the app, connecting a wallet, navigating the 3D interface, and completing your first transaction.
1

Open the app

Navigate to the HideMyTx URL in a desktop browser. The app runs entirely in your browser — no install or account creation required.
Use a desktop browser with MetaMask or Phantom installed. Mobile wallets are not currently supported.
2

Connect your wallet

Connect the wallet that matches the feature you want to use:
  • Phantom — required for Private Send (Solana)
  • MetaMask or any EVM browser wallet — required for Shielded Send (EVM)
  • No wallet needed — Private Swaps and Normal Swaps do not require a connected wallet to get a quote
Wallet connection buttons appear in the header and inside each feature panel. See Connecting Wallets for detailed instructions.
3

Navigate the interface

The spider-web scene lets you move the camera freely:
  • Drag anywhere on the scene to orbit the camera
  • Scroll to zoom in or out
  • Click a workstation to open that feature’s panel on the right
Each workstation is labeled and color-coded:

Choose a workflow

Select the workflow that matches your goal:
  1. Click the Private Swaps workstation.
  2. Choose source chain, source token, destination chain, and destination token.
  3. Toggle Route via Monero if you want the XMR anonymity hop.
  4. Enter the recipient address and the amount to swap.
  5. Review the quote and click Swap.
No wallet connection is required to quote. You connect your source wallet only at the point of execution.

Track your transaction

After submitting, a status panel shows live updates for your transaction. For swap features, status updates reflect the Houdini or NEAR Intents routing progress. For shield operations, the panel shows the on-chain confirmation.
