# Shielded Trading

As mentioned, Blanksquare's Shielding is highly composable. An important demonstration of this fact is that shielded assets do not require a special "shielded DEX" to be traded. Indeed, any public protocol can be used to trade shielded assets, such as Uniswap or Cowswap. An out-of-the-box integration with various DEXes will be provided as part of Shielder-SDK in the future.
