Pre-alpha. Not live. Do not use real funds.
A person-to-person ramp where honesty is the equilibrium.
Swap USDT for US dollars or euros directly with another person. No company holds the money. Each trader locks a deposit worth twice the trade, and a deal that ends in dispute is destroyed, not won by either side.
Named for John Nash. In a Nash equilibrium, no player does better by changing strategy alone.
Buyer paid
Buyer didn't pay
Seller releases
Equilibrium
Trade completes
Seller has the dollars, buyer has the USDT. Both deposits come back.
The limit
Seller is out 1,000
One trade's math cannot stop this. Public reputation does.
Seller declares non-receipt
Burn
Both lose
Seller loses 3,000 USDT. Buyer loses the 2,000 deposit and the $1,000 already sent.
Burn
Both lose
Seller loses 3,000 USDT. Buyer loses the 2,000 deposit.
The problem
Swapping cash for USDT person to person means trusting someone.
Trust a stranger
Somebody sends first and hopes the other side follows. One side always carries the risk.
Trust a company
A platform holds the money in between. Now you depend on it staying honest, solvent and open.
NashFi: trust the payoffs
Both sides lock deposits in a public contract. A paid seller gains nothing by lying, and a dispute is destroyed rather than won.
How a trade works
One trade, start to finish.
Every rule is fixed before anyone locks a deposit. Nothing inside the product can be negotiated.
-
1
A maker posts an offer
Fixed terms, backed by their deposit. Want different terms? Post your own offer.
-
2
A taker accepts
Both deposits lock. Each one is twice the trade amount.
-
3
The buyer reveals
That unlocks the seller's contact. They arrange the bank or cash payment privately. The app never sees it.
-
4
The buyer pays and marks paid
Until the cutoff, the buyer can take the claim back, only if the money never left or has come back. That burns a flat 10 USDT.
-
5
The seller releases
The escrow goes to the buyer. After a reversal window, anyone can settle, and both deposits return to free vault balance.
If it goes wrong
Three endings burn deposits.
Each is permanent, and none pays anyone. That is the point.
-
6
The seller declares the money never arrived
Only after the cutoff. The escrow and both deposits are destroyed at once. It cannot be undone.
-
7
Nobody acts by the release deadline
If a paid trade is still open, anyone can trigger the same destruction.
-
8
The seller claims a chargeback
After release, only while the reversal window is open, if the buyer's payment is reversed. Both deposits burn.
Why cheating does not pay
A paid seller has nothing to gain by lying.
Take a 1,000 USDT trade. Each deposit is twice the trade.
The limit, stated plainly
A buyer who marks paid without paying is not stopped by one trade’s math. Public reputation holds that side: a seller known to burn against non-payers makes that lie unprofitable.
Locked while the trade is open
Seller
Buyer
5,000 USDT at stake in total. Released or destroyed; never collected by anyone else.
Paid seller releases
±0 USDT
Gave 1,000 USDT, holds the $1,000, and gets the 2,000 deposit back. Even.
Paid seller lies
−2,000 USDT
Keeps the $1,000 but loses 3,000 USDT to the burn. The buyer loses the deposit and the payment. Nobody collects.

What NashFi does not do
Less to trust, because there is less of us.
-
We never hold the money
Your USDT sits in your own vault, a public contract. No company holds it.
-
There are no accounts
No sign-up, no profile, no password to leak.
-
There is no chat
The app never sees payment details. You talk where you choose, after reveal.
-
No company runs the trades
Traders post and take offers directly. Nobody approves, matches, or settles them.
-
There is no tracking
This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics or pixels.
-
No launch promise
Pre-alpha. There is no launch date, and nothing to buy.
A trade, walked through
Play both sides of one trade.
Two paths through the same sell trade: one that completes, and one left to the deadline. These are designed frames. Nothing here touches a wallet or a network.
Path A · Connect, fund, and complete a trade
Released
How the vault works
- Fund once
- Approve only if the allowance is too small, then deposit. Deposit is the only pull from your wallet.
- Accept from free balance
- Taking an offer locks USDT already in the vault. One transaction, no approve.
- Release the escrow
- Only the escrow leaves the seller’s vault, to the buyer’s receiving address. A reversal window follows.
- Settle, then withdraw
- Once the window closes, anyone can settle. Both deposits return to free vault balance.

Nothing to do if all is well
Once the window closes, anyone can settle. Both deposits then return to free vault balance.
Claim only for a reversed payment
If the buyer's bank payment is reversed before the window closes, you can claim. Both deposits burn. The 1,000 USDT already sent stays with the buyer.
Only you, as the seller, and only while the window is open. It cannot be undone.

This trade can now be burned
A paid trade was never released. Anyone can trigger the burn, and their wallet signs it. A seller who declares non-receipt causes the same result.
Cannot be undone
Destroys the 1,000 USDT escrow and both 2,000 deposits at once. If a payment might still arrive, this is the wrong move.
