SilentSwap Graduates from YZi Labs EASY Residency Season 3 Demo Day
New York, NY, USA, May 14th, 2026, Chainwire
The participation of the privacy infrastructure innovator highlights the growing focus and continued progress in privacy in the crypto domain.
SilentSwap has graduated from a 10-week-long YZI Labs residency program. The project participated in the latest Season 3 of YZi Labs’ global incubation program, EASY Residency, which supports early-stage founders across Web3, AI, and biotech. The announcement coincides with the program’s Demo Day, where selected teams get a chance to present to top-tier global investors and ecosystem participants.
Founded in 2023, SilentSwap is a next-generation, non-custodial privacy service for cross-chain swaps. It is a fully decentralized service that keeps its users’ financial activity completely confidential while offering low fees and supporting multiple chains. More importantly, SilentSwap makes the entire process straightforward and secure.
The OFAC & AML-compliant platform moves millions of dollars per minute without leaving a trace. Currently focused on making privacy in crypto the default, SilentSwap is capitalizing on the hands-on support provided by EASY Residency across product design, market strategy, and global network access.
YZi Labs’ EASY Residency is a growth program designed to support high-potential founders with capital, mentorship, operational guidance, and other resources needed for scalable growth.
After two successful seasons, EASY Residency recently hosted Season 3, marking the program’s transition from a single, fixed group to a year-round model with global hubs and rolling participation. The Demo Day, being held in San Francisco, is one of three global showcases the program has planned for this year.
The big day gives the chosen teams the opportunity to connect with fellow builders, leading investors, and strategic partners that they want to work with. Furthermore, teams get to showcase their products, deliver live pitches, and have deeper conversations directly with industry leaders at a critical stage in project development.
For SilentSwap, this means reaching a larger audience by addressing the lack of intuitive native privacy solutions, which has been a barrier to making privacy in crypto practical.
More broadly, the platform prevents privacy leaks during on-chain transfers. Users can now trade or move assets privately across ecosystems with speed, maintaining complete anonymity throughout.
With its approach, SilentSwap has completed thousands of swaps and processed millions in trading volume, positioning it in a fast-evolving landscape of blockchain and privacy-enhancing technologies.
“Our time in EASY Residency showed us the market is hungry for privacy infrastructure that’s actually usable. We’re focused on delivering non-custodial solutions that feel natural to mainstream users, and YZi Labs’ support is accelerating that mission,” said SilentSwap Founder Shibtoshi.
Following the Demo Day announcement, SilentSwap plans to leverage YZI Labs’ vast network and specialized support to accelerate growth. The platform is focused on expanding adoption while pursuing its longer-term goal of making privacy in crypto accessible to all.
