For privacy-first DeFi platforms that want to offer users cross-chain swaps and liquidity access across 20+ networks from a single interface, without building routing infrastructure.
The Partner
Veru Finance is a privacy-first DeFi infrastructure platform built on Aleo, enabling cross-chain asset transfers and privacy-aware financial primitives. Users bridge and swap USDT, USDC, ETH, and ALEO across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and BSC into Aleo's privacy layer, where transactions are shielded using zero-knowledge proofs.
The Challenge
Aleo's privacy layer is powerful, but delivering a full cross-chain experience on top of it presents structural barriers:
1. Aleo's privacy layer is isolated from liquidity sitting on major EVM and non-EVM chains.
2. Offering cross-chain swaps across many ecosystems means building and maintaining complex routing infrastructure in-house.
3. Users expect access to deep liquidity across networks without leaving a single, simple interface.
Veru needed to give its users multi-chain swap access across many ecosystems, while preserving Aleo's privacy model, without building and maintaining routing infrastructure from scratch.
The Solution
Veru integrated SODAX routing to power cross-chain swaps directly inside its interface:
1
Multi-Chain Swap Routing
Previously: Cross-chain swaps would require Veru to build and maintain routing infrastructure across many ecosystems.
Now: Veru's swap interface uses SODAX routing infrastructure to execute cross-chain swaps across multiple ecosystems from a single interface.
2
Liquidity Access Across 20+ Chains
Previously: Liquidity was limited to chains Veru could connect and maintain directly.
Now: Swaps access liquidity across Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Arbitrum, Solana, Sui, Stellar, and other supported ecosystems.
3
Privacy Preserved End-to-End
Assets bridged into Aleo are shielded with zero-knowledge proofs, and swaps route through SODAX while users stay within a single interface. Wider liquidity access with no loss of Veru's privacy model.
Veru Fi Results
Multi-Chain Swaps Live
Veru's swap interface uses SODAX routing to execute cross-chain swaps across 20+ chains from a single interface.
Expanded Liquidity Reach
Swaps now access liquidity across Ethereum, BNB Smart Chain, Base, Arbitrum, Solana, Sui, Stellar, and more, without Veru building or maintaining routing infrastructure in-house.
Privacy Maintained
Users gain cross-chain liquidity access while assets stay shielded within Aleo's zero-knowledge execution environment.
