Monero ($XMR) Price Updates, Recent Developments, Future Events, Community
Monero ($XMR) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency specifically developed as a means of allowing users to conduct anonymous and untraceable transactions through the utilization of a variety of different cryptographic technologies. Additionally, Monero undergoes regular protocol changes to the mining algorithm it has and is constantly being improved upon.
The technology responsible for ensuring that all of this works efficiently is known as Ring Signatures, which are used as a means of mixing the digital signature of an individual making an XMR transaction with those of other users prior to recording it on the blockchain.
