Description
MWC (MimbleWimbleCoin) is a cryptocurrency that emphasizes privacy, scarcity, and scalability. It utilizes the MimbleWimble protocol, which employs technologies like CoinJoin, confidential transactions, Pedersen Commitments, and zero-knowledge proofs to ensure transaction anonymity and security. This design aggregates transactions, hides amounts, and eliminates the need for traditional addresses, making the transaction trail untraceable. The coin has a fixed maximum supply of 20 million, making it inflation-proof. Its scalability is achieved through transaction and block cut-through techniques, which streamline the blockchain by removing spent transactions while maintaining full verifiability. The MWC ecosystem includes nodes for network decentralization, user-friendly wallets with features like atomic swaps and hardware wallet integration, and support for mining. The project provides comprehensive documentation for users to explore MWC-compatible wallets and operate nodes, and for developers to dive into the protocol, API, and node structure to build and integrate applications.
