Overview

Tradecraft uses Privy.io for secure wallet management. All wallets are user-owned and managed through Privy's enterprise infrastructure with delegated trading permissions for automated strategies.

How Privy Works

Privy is an enterprise wallet infrastructure provider that:

  • Manages wallet private keys in secure hardware environments (TEE - Trusted Execution Environment)

  • Never exposes private keys to application servers

  • Provides user-owned wallets with delegated permissions

  • Handles transaction signing securely

A trading wallet has been generated.

What happens:

  • Tradecraft creates a wallet in Privy's infrastructure

  • You own the wallet through your Privy account

  • Private key never leaves Privy's secure environment
