About XMR
Monero (XMR) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency designed to provide secure, private, and untraceable transactions. Launched in 2014, Monero uses advanced cryptographic technologies, such as ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT, to ensure the confidentiality of its users' financial data. Unlike most cryptocurrencies, Monero’s blockchain is opaque, meaning transaction details (such as amounts, sender, and receiver) are concealed, making it a preferred choice for those seeking financial privacy. Monero operates on a Proof of Work (PoW) consensus mechanism, allowing users to mine it on standard hardware, making it accessible to a broad range of participants. You can track live XMR prices, historical data, and market trends on our Monero Markets page for the latest insights on this leading privacy coin.
