Best privacy coin?

[Byakuya]

Probably best privacy coin is monero but there might be more privacy coin that I don't know so I am not sure.

[sirsplashalot]

I love all these "It is going to be the best" Bullshit! Touting pie in the sky crap when something better already exists, this forum never ceases to amaze.

BTW you forgot ShadowCrapCash. Lol

ALSO for all of you that don't know, Tor is not the way to go and any project going that route is doing it WRONG.

I2P ( https://geti2p.net/ ) is the way to go as Monero is doing. Man these fools are starting projects without even knowing what protocols they should be using on the base layer. That alone shows what poor and amateur projects they are.

Anyone can patch on a tor connection. Monero has had the tutorial for it for years.

No anonymous coin seeks to create untraceable staking other then Xspec, furthermore the OBFS4 integrated layer of security and low power mobile staking. This coin works in China, Iran and Saudi Arabia. It’s important to regard more then just your western world when criticizing highly international projects which seek to solve global monetary freedom. Had you have any respect for this community you’d research beyond your ignorance to understand the shawdowcash Code has been completely cleaned up. Believing in Kovri is what you are relying on here, and if you know fluffypony well enough you should trust that guy as far as you can throw him. A Truly deflationary POW currency like Monero needs to back a POS currency like Spectrecoin the way deflationary tangible assets back our fiat system, try to see beyond the normie chart of comparison and your ego.

Referring to a community member as the one who started the project clearly shows you have not done your research. Come to our slack channel and flex your tech knowledge with the developers and not on this forum with someone from a TOR blocked region trying to promote this project out of good will for an extremely underfunded project.

Unbacked claims saying ‘Tor is not the way to go’ and generalizations won’t fly around here.

best privacy crypto currency  that should work in all types of censorship and serve its function to stay anon. it should be robust to change in government policy towards cryptocurrencies in any country.

spectrecoin does that for now.

[foggywhite007]

In my opinion there are 2 coins. Top Xspec technology is the most powerful community project has a deep onion. These 2 projects will expand...

[RKh]

Finally SpectreCoin gets the recognition it deserves

all coins - toilet paper

Me 2 coins DEEP like ONION and spectr. - they have a cool selection of transaction is called stealth

[Martin888]

Stealthcoin XST works with TOR

You can send coins by SMS

POS interest p.a. = 20% - nice additional bonus !

Probably best privacy coin is monero but there might be more privacy coin that I don't know so I am not sure.

I would certainly recommend SpectreCoin. As for the privacy features, it is not any worse than Monero, and it has two significant advantages over Monero: it is hardly known yet, and so it is very cheap yet(!), plus it is Proof of Stake. Honestly, every day more and more coins are moving towards PoS recognizing that it can be secure enough and incomparably more efficient than PoW. So I would absolutely recommend SpectreCoin (XSPEC). Soon you will be able to stake it even on you phone, which is quite awesome. Plus marketing is coming up soon and the price will be driven up quick. You can buy XSPEC on Cryptopia and on LiveCoin.

The best privacy coin still hold by the monero but i just agree about zencash or i'm interested about the zstarks that will have released by the zcash foundation. Zcoin as the forked of the zcash itself.
But my attention gets pay into the monero. because that already traded in so many exchange site.
And a lot of volume that reflected the interest.

yes I agree indeed this time the privacy is still on hold monero may until next year if no one is dubious.yes I agree indeed this time the privacy is still on hold monero may until next year if no one is dubious.

[Meth9275]

without a doubt XSPEC and XMR, 60cts vs $320. So, i prefer XSPEC

sumokoin off course

I have to admit I am not an expert on privacy coins but I have heard a lot of mention of Spectre coin. After seeing so much about it I took a luck and it does seem interesting, there are so many ideas for the future of decentralized architecture who knows which one will win?

monero? people say about this coin all the time when they need anonymous transaction. I'm still dont understand how monero can hide their transaction. should I buy some to test

Simple. It is achieved with 4 things:

1. Ring signatures, that hide the output being used by hiding it among several others that also appear to be used. NOTE: this is very different than mixing.

2. Stealth addresses, that removes the association between outputs and addresses.

3. RingCT, that is basically a confidential transactions that works with a ring signatures.  (Updated with Bulletproofs in 2018)

4. Kovri, that hides the IP for the transaction broadcast. This data is never stored on-chain, but it can help protect users from malicious nodes.  ( Updated in 2018)


But even with all that Monero is still work in progress and research and adds new innovations to always stray ahead of blockchain analysis.


You dont need to buy any Monero. Download GUI https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/releases/tag/v0.11.1.0 and set to testnet and solo mine yourself few testnet Monero and play wit them.

[salterious]

Right on brother I think 2018 will also be year of the privacy coins as well as forking hell. Those coins you mentioned are for sure going to have great gains in 2018 but you left out a few that I think also will make big strides.
Those include Dash, DeepOnion, and Spectre. I think it doesn't matter which privacy coin you fancy if it is marketed well enough and is private enough all the coins will have good success. And honestly I am not sure which one will do the best but I would think that would go to Dash or Monero but one of these smaller caps could outperform them in 2018 as well.

The guy above gave details about monero's advantages. I've been using it for more than 8-9 months and I really like it because the anonymus features of it. Plus, speculative actions in Monero is very good for holders.

[TeamTT]

Zcash and monero (and other cryptonite forks of XMR) AFAIK are the only true anon coins

[srqrebel]

Spectrecoin.

It has native Tor integration, meaning it is running on Tor any time it is connected, and your IP address is effectively hidden.  It has the OBFS4 obfuscation protocol integrated, which makes it impossible to detect that it is running on Tor, enabling its use in Tor blocked countries.  It employs ring signatures for transactional anonymity.  An upcoming version that is currently under development will make stealth transactions the default (right now, they have to be manually selected), which will eliminate the chances of accidentally making a public transaction.  It is on track to be the first coin to introduce stealth staking.  There is a low power Android staking wallet on the roadmap, and the crowning glory will be the SpectreCash small remittance Android app, to facilitate 100% anonymous peer-to-peer transactions.
