Description

MimbleWimbleCoin (MWC) is a blockchain network built around the Mimblewimble protocol, using confidential transactions, CoinJoin-style aggregation, and transaction cut-through to provide privacy and scalability. The project offers downloadable node software for running and verifying the peer-to-peer network, along with wallets for managing and transacting MWC, including atomic swaps, a decentralized marketplace, and hardware-wallet integration. Its node software also incorporates Tor features to help anonymize node traffic.
