💰 ZANO — a blockchain focused on complete transaction privacy. The project was created by one of the early developers of the CryptoNote codebase, which underpins Monero, and occupies a unique niche among privacy coins.
On the ZANO network, everything is confidential:
1️⃣ transaction amount
2️⃣ sender and receiver addresses
3️⃣ even the type of asset being transferred
This is made possible by the Zarcanum protocol, which allows confidential assets to run on a PoS consensus; the mechanism was presented at MoneroTopia 2023 and MoneroKon 2024 and deployed on the ZANO mainnet.

The final breakthrough, in my opinion, will occur closer to the halving event and amid easing inflation in the USA.
