Your Choice, Your Control

​
Privacy-First CEX with DEX Options

EVAV operates as a Centralized Exchange (CEX) by default, with optional Decentralized Exchange (DEX) features for users who want more control. This hybrid approach gives you the best of both worlds.

​
What This Means for You

​
Default: CEX Privacy (Most Users)

  • Your identity stays private from other users
  • Your purchases remain anonymous in the marketplace
  • We handle compliance so you don’t have to
  • Simple experience - no crypto wallet needed
As a CEX, we maintain custody of items onchain while keeping your personal data in our secure database. This lets us offer privacy that current regulations don’t allow onchain.

​
Optional: DEX Features (Power Users)

When you’re ready for more control:
  • Full ownership of your items onchain
  • Transparent transactions visible to all
  • Self-custody of your assets
  • Public collections for influencers

​
Why We Built It This Way

Centralized exchanges are generally easy to use, while decentralized exchanges require some specialized knowledge to access. We believe privacy and usability shouldn’t be mutually exclusive. Current Reality: Onchain privacy tools face regulatory challenges. By operating as a CEX, we can offer true privacy today while building toward a decentralized future. Future Vision: As regulations evolve, we’ll introduce Railway wallets and other privacy-preserving technologies, allowing full DEX functionality without sacrificing privacy.

​
Your Data, Your Rules

​
What We Keep Private

  • Personal information (name, email, address)
  • Purchase amounts and history
  • Item ownership (unless you choose to reveal)
  • Bidding activity

​
What’s Public (Onchain)

  • Item provenance and price history
  • Anonymous transaction data
  • Market trends and volumes
  • Creator royalties and pioneer rewards

​
What You Control

  • Reveal Identity: Influencers can connect profiles to collections
  • Share Purchases: Choose which items appear in your public profile
  • Accept Bids: Control who can see and bid on your items
  • Migrate to DEX: Move to full decentralization when ready

​
Privacy in Practice

Anonymous by Default Lisa buys vintage cameras through EVAV. Other users see items traded but not who owns them. She receives bids without revealing her identity. Selective Transparency Marcus, a sneaker influencer, links his collection to his social profile. His purchases become part of his brand, adding value through association. Gradual Decentralization Sarah starts with CEX privacy but migrates select high-value items to DEX custody as she becomes comfortable with self-management.

​
The Best Path Forward

CEXs typically offer higher liquidity and trading volume because they aggregate many orders in one place, making it easier to execute trades quickly at stable prices. By starting as a CEX, EVAV ensures:
  • Immediate privacy protection
  • Regulatory compliance
  • User-friendly experience
  • High marketplace liquidity
While building toward:
  • Optional self-custody
  • Railway wallet integration
  • Full DEX capabilities
  • Community governance

​
Your Privacy Journey

  1. Start Simple - Join with email, trade with privacy
  2. Build Value - Grow your collection anonymously
  3. Choose Transparency - Reveal what adds value
  4. Go Decentralized - Migrate to DEX when ready
Privacy isn’t just a feature – it’s your right. EVAV gives you the tools to control exactly how public or private you want to be.
Privacy: Simple today, sovereign tomorrow.
