Monero
Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses advanced cryptographic techniques to ensure anonymous transactions. It hides sender, receiver, and transaction amounts by default, making it a top choice for users seeking true financial privacy. XMR cannot be tracked on a public ledger, which has led to both praise and regulatory scrutiny. It is widely regarded as the leading privacy coin.
