ZCash is definitely the best private coin. There are many reviews about it. I don’t need any private coins for myself but know somewhat about it because my best friend is obsessed about the question of privacy.

If he is obsessed with privacy then you should definitely introduce DeepOnion to him

I'm waiting for a coin! Smiley THANKS to the developers of the project!

[Bytem3]

I think NAV coin has still a lot of undiscovered potential.

[XSNsoldier6]

XSN, Stakenet hands down.

This is an incredibly promising, unique, and most importantly, well funded privacy based system.  XSN's unique smart contract arhitecture allows one to cold stake in a completely trustless manner.  Check out my blog that I maintain on behalf of the community, the XSN Army.

Very cognizantly painted, thank you very much for such a wonderful opportunity. I think that we will have a wonderful opportunity to choose the most anonymous project. I think that there really is such a need. Because soon complete verification of the community begins.

DeepOnion's ICO is successful, also they contributed a profitable airdrop for the community who joined their cause. I think Dash and Monero will be useful too. However, these coins listed have many positive reviews so they are all good though.

[Sithara007]

Monero used to be one of my favorite coins out there, followed by Verge. But XMR is not showing much traction lately, which forced me to look for other alternatives. I have found both Deep Onion and Electroneum to be interesting.

In my opinion, Monero will be one of the most anonymous coins of the next generation, I was all clear in that article, so I'll probably also think that Monero is really a very cool anonymous coin.

Pivx and deeponion are also good choices as well.

Getting more and more familiar with stealth xst.
Probably the best most undervalued privacy coin on coinmarketcap.

Dear Crypto community,

Because the privacy of transactions is, in my view, one of the most important features that cryptocurrency should have - no one wants Big Brother to look at where, how much, and why you use your money - I tried to make an overview of private coins and their main features. I wonder which privacy coin you see as the best one ?
Also, if I missed any good privacy coin, please write about it in this thread.

ZCash
Zcash uses a new method of cryptographic privacy called “zk-SNARKs”. At the basic level, zero-knowledge proofs allow for a way to prove that the information you are sending to the other party (e.g. the amount of funds) is true, without having to broadcast said information besides the fact that it is true. However, Zcash is not “private by default” particularly due to the inefficiency of zk-SNARKs. Zcash offers the choice of optional privacy - “shielding” is not on by default.

Monero
Monero uses Ring Confidential Transactions to improve privacy and security. By bundling the sending and receiving of public keys with older network transactions, a “mixer” is created that is capable of obfuscating addresses. On top of Ring Confidential Transactions, Monero makes use of ring signatures and Stealth addresses to hide both the sender and the receiver in a transaction.

Dash
Dash is not cryptographically private. Dash promises privacy through mixing, utilizing a modified version of CoinJoin – a method initially created to “anonymize” Bitcoins. Dash functions similar to Bitcoin, in that the blockchain is transparent by default while offering optional privacy by way of mixing. However, the mixing is being done by masternodes and there is nothing preventing these masternodes from logging the user’s output destinations, and there is no way to audit whether or not a masternode is logging anything at all.

Verge
Verge is not cryptographically private. Verge only offers “privacy” by way of Tor and I2P routing, to obfuscate traffic and conceal a user’s IP address when transacting. There are no cryptographic privacy features with regards to the blockchain, the linkability and traceability of transactions and addresses, nor the concealment of the amounts being transacted.

ZenCash
ZenCash uses zk-SNARKS (Private transactions with hidden sender/receiver information) like ZCash, however it has got more privacy features like Domain Fronting (Hides internet connection endpoints to prevent censorship}, IPFS (Publish or access data anonymously via a distributed system) and Secure Nodes. Unlike ZCash, it utilizes DAO-style governance model.

PivX
Pivx uses Zerocoin protocol - Zerocoin transactions (using so-called zPIV coins) exist alongside the PivX currency. The first step is converting PivX into anonymouns zPiv coins. Users then send zPiv to other users (splitting or merging is used along the way). Receiving users then convert zPiv back into PivX. PIVX is also working on implementing with the Invisible Internet Project (I2P), so that the IP address of every PIVX node will be hidden from its peers by defaut.

NAV Coin
NAV Coin is actually two blockchains, the main Nav Coin blockchain and another called the Subchain. When a user wants to send an anonymous transaction, they send the amount of Nav Coin and the recipient’s address to a NavTech incoming processing server. The NavTech processing server creates a transaction of random size on the Subchain and sends the transaction, and the encrypted address of the recipient, to a randomly selected outgoing server. The outgoing server decrypts the recipients address and sends Navcoin, from a pre-filled pool, on to the correct recipient.

And which one is the best for me? ZenCash
Let me know your opinions..

Added on the recommendation of the community:

DeepOnion
DeepOnion is natively integrated with the TOR network and ALL connections are made over the TOR network. Recently, it also supports Obfs4 (protocol on top of the tor network, allows access to tor in the regions that tor is not allowed or banned). Nice DeepVault feature - allows adding file validation credentials(hashes) to the blockchain, can be used to verify a file integrity. More privacy features coming. Good marketing.

SpectreCoin
SpectreCoin is integrated natively in TOR network and it supports masking TOR traffic mechanism (OBFS4). Additional privacy features are zero-knowledge proofs, ring signatures and stealth addresses (they are currently optional but will be made default in Q2 2018). Another nice feature will come in Q2 2018 - staking on Stealth Addresses.

Intense Coin
Intense Coin is a low market cap privacy coin also used as a utility coin for VPN services - a new approach to VPNs whereby peers can offer their own internet connections as encrypted tunnels for interested parties. VPN providers will receive Intense Coin (ITNS) in exchange for their services. Ring signatures are used to ensure privacy - the same technology is used by Monero (XMR). Uses CryptoNight proof-of-work mining algorithm - CPU mineable.

Sumokoin
Sumokoin is a low market cap coin - slightly improved Monero fork (ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT) with minimum ringsize (mixin) of 12). Developers do their job, people talk about it. Aims to be used easily by normal users - they've got easy miner and intuitive GUI wallets.

Electroneum
Electroneum is a Monero fork from autumn 2017. It doesn't have any improvements over Monero regarding privacy, and I haven't found any plans to implement new and planned Monero features since the fork in their roadmap. The Electroneum team seem to be good in marketing and they also concentrate on user-friendly interface. They made a "mobile miner", however the app is just a marketing trick and does not perform real mining – it's only a simulation of mining (distributing premined coins).

As what I have observed, all of the coins listed in this post are all good coins and have good features and are all worth investing on. But for me, I will still prefer MONERO. Not just because of what things MONERO can offer but also because it is a bit more popular than that of the others. Plus, it really has grown on me which is why I am a bit loyal to it..

[neocryptrix]

There is a new buck in the herd coming up strong. PRiVCY is a fork of DeepOnion. Works exactly the same. POW/POS. Currently in the early rounds of airdrops. Jump on board, follow the rules through the discord channel and hodl your free coins. If it follows in DO's footsteps, the next bull run should make this coin a profitable investment.

[anjohyx]

A lot of member recommend deeponion, I don't know it's really best privacy cryptocurrency or just because they earn a lot of deeponion from airdrop? My suggestion is Monero, but price is still high right now, even whole market price dip, Monero price still more than $120, high chance rise like rocket when next bull market 

[ofounz98712]

Base on what I read and I saw, the coins that really captivatid my attention is both the navcoin and moreno because you can actually observe that the transaction are both secured and thats the best thing that the coin should have.

[berezov_petro]

Go Green!

I also like it Monero and Zcash. These are really good confidential coins used by many people. These coins have great prospects in the future and they will grow!

[aitorp6]

All of those coins have great features and I think that in a not so far future they will very useful. 

[bajindul88]

If judged professionally it's very difficult because all coins have their advantages. anyone using Tor, Zerocoin Protocol, I2P, etc. but in reality if we reap a lot of income and profits on the coin is certainly self-taught we will choose a coin that makes us a big profit. is it all right?

[caugiay074]

I want to invest in a privacy coin but I am not able to decide which is good one .Some people say verge is good but when the mcafee shillings started and the coin dumped I am no longer sure. Does it technically have what it takes to be a good privacy coin like monero in future ? How good is the team?

I recommend you PRiVCY coin. You can buy PRiVCY in https://crex24.com/exchange/PRIV-BTC . For more info, check out the ANN https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4503790.0 .

My 2nd recommendation is DeepOnion. More information and links to exchanges can be found here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2683530.0 .
