Monero (XMR)
Monero (XMR) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that was launched in 2014. The aim of Monero is to provide users with a secure and private way to conduct transactions without the risk of their identities being revealed. It is built on a blockchain that is designed to keep transactions private, ensuring that the sender, receiver, and amount are all hidden.
