What is Monero (XMR) ?

Monero is a cryptocurrency designed to keep transactions hidden from prying eyes. It uses a number of sophisticated techniques to prevent people tracking how money is spent. As a result it has become increasingly popular with users of the dark net.

Meanwhile, so-called privacy coins faced hurdles as some exchanges stopped supporting them. With Bitcoin’s pioneers drawing ins...
