These encrypted transactions are commonly executed through a Relayer, which guarantees user anonymity. Unshield actions incur 0.25% fees, based on the amount of tokens unshielded. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
