All the latest news and key insights you need from Monero
Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that prioritizes secure, untraceable transactions. Unlike most other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, which have transparent blockchains, Monero uses advanced cryptographic techniques to shield sender and receiver identities, as well as the transaction amount. Built on a proof-of-work consensus mechanism, Monero empowers users with full financial privacy, making it one of the leading decentralized digital currencies for anonymous transactions in the Web3 space.
Monero was developed to address the lack of privacy in traditional cryptocurrencies. While blockchain technology offers decentralization and immutability, most public blockchains reveal too much transaction data, which can be traced by third parties. This level of transparency compromises user privacy, leaving individuals exposed to surveillance, financial profiling, or censorship. Monero solves this by offering an anonymous and confidential medium of exchange that gives users control over their financial data.
$XMR is Monero’s native token, used to facilitate private, decentralized transactions. It serves as the network’s core utility and security asset:
Monero forked from Bytecoin, establishing its privacy-focused blockchain.
Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT) implemented to hide transaction amounts.
RandomX algorithm introduced to favor CPU mining and maintain decentralization.
Tail Emission began, rewarding 0.6 XMR per block to sustain miner incentives indefinitely.
