00:00What are privacy coins?
00:04Imagine sending money without anyone knowing how much, to whom, or even that you sent it.
00:10That's the power of privacy coins.
00:14While most cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are pseudonymous,
00:17meaning transactions are public but not directly linked to real identities,
00:22privacy coins take it a step further by making transactions truly anonymous.
00:27Here are a few notable examples.
00:30Monero XMR utilizes ring signatures and stealth addresses to conceal sender and receiver identities,
00:39and ring confidential transactions to hide transaction amounts.
00:44Zcash offers optional privacy through shielded transactions using zero-knowledge proofs,
00:50allowing users to keep transaction details confidential.
00:54Dash provides a feature called Private Send, which mixes transactions to enhance privacy.
00:59These coins are popular among users who prioritize financial privacy, such as individuals in oppressive regimes,
01:08or those concerned about data security.
01:11However, it's important to note that privacy coins have also attracted regulatory scrutiny
01:17to their potential misuse in illicit activities.
01:20Some exchanges have delisted them to comply with local laws.
01:24Privacy coins offer enhanced anonymity in cryptocurrency transactions,
01:29but they come with both benefits and challenges.
