Overview
MimbleWimbleCoin (MWC) is a decentralized cryptocurrency designed to address limitations in privacy and scalability observed in traditional blockchain systems. By implementing the MimbleWimble protocol, MWC enables confidential transactions that obfuscate both the sender and recipient identities as well as the transaction amounts. The coin’s architecture prioritizes user privacy and efficiency, with a fixed maximum supply of 20 million coins, ensuring its scarcity and appeal for long-term storage and utility.
Technology
MWC’s foundation on the MimbleWimble protocol provides a unique advantage in privacy and scalability. This protocol utilizes cryptographic innovations like confidential transactions and CoinJoin, allowing transaction data to remain private while maintaining blockchain security and validity. Unlike traditional blockchains that grow with every transaction, the MimbleWimble protocol’s compact design reduces data storage requirements by discarding redundant historical information, leading to faster synchronization for new nodes.
The network is compatible with major wallets, including hardware wallets
