    Minimal implementation of the Mimblewimble protocol.

  • GRIN is a decentralized privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses a technology called Mimblewimble to provide users with strong privacy protections. Mimblewimble is a type of blockchain protocol that allows for confidential transactions without revealing any identifying information about the sender, receiver, or transaction amount. In the Mimblewimble blockchain, there are no identifiable and reusable addresses. The users generate one-time use addresses for each transaction, which helps prevent address reuse and makes it more difficult to link transactions to specific users. A Mimblewimble block can be treated as one large transaction not a combination of individual transactions. This makes it difficult to trace individual transactions as no information about individual transactions is revealed. Transaction information is only known by the transaction's participants. The privacy-focused coin, Beam, also uses Mimblewimble to provide its users with confidential transactions.
