Full Self-Custody

User escrow is held in Vaults of Individual Participant Escrow (VIPE) onchain so that

  1. Funds cannot be co-mingled by the exchange

  2. Each user can audit a dedicated proof of reserve

  3. Full Self-Custody of funds is preserved at all times

Pre-signed balance states are maintained by each user's Virtual Node so that funds can be withdraw independently of VDEX and in spite of frontend outages.
