Frequently asked questions

Proteus is a private multichain trading desk. You can research markets, swap tokens, manage liquidity positions, bridge between desks, and optionally fund a managed mandate — with self-custody signing through wallets provisioned or linked via Privy.

Self-directed swaps, LP, and bridges are signed by your selected wallet. Embedded Proteus desks are Privy embedded wallets you can export. Linked wallets (Phantom, Solflare, MetaMask, etc.) remain under your control. Managed deposits only move funds when you explicitly send them to a configured Proteus custody address.

Live desk rails include Solana plus Ethereum, Base, Robinhood Chain, Monad, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, HyperEVM, and Unichain. Markets can be browsed as a blended multichain book.

Yes. Link multiple Solana and EVM wallets under one Proteus profile, then choose which wallet signs each swap, LP, bridge, or deposit via Profile & wallets or the Sign with control on Trade / Liquidity.

Solana swaps route through Jupiter. EVM swaps route through LiFi aggregation. You review the quote, sign in your wallet, and settlement happens on-chain. Proteus does not take custody of self-directed swap flows.

On Solana you can open and manage positions on Raydium, Orca, and Meteora from the Liquidity desk. Transactions are built server-side, safety checked, then signed by your active Solana wallet.

Most Proteus spot routes use AMM / aggregator liquidity, not a central limit order book. The Trade desk depth panel visualizes estimated depth and recent activity around the selected pair to support decision-making.

Network gas / priority fees are paid to the chain. Venue and aggregator fees may apply inside the route you accept. Any Proteus desk or managed mandate fees will be disclosed in-product before you confirm. Always review the wallet simulation before signing.

No. Proteus provides software tools for research and self-directed (or separately elected managed) trading. Nothing on the desk is investment, legal, or tax advice. Digital assets are volatile and you can lose capital.
