Description

MimblewimbleCoin (MWC)

MimblewimbleCoin (MWC)

MimblewimbleCoin is a cryptocurrency that applies the Mimblewimble protocol directly in its base layer. It is designed to provide enhanced privacy, security, and scalability features. MWC has a provable supply cap of 20,000,000 units, with 10,000,000 units created in the genesis block and another 10,000,000 units to be mined using a proof-of-work consensus mechanism.

The Mimblewimble protocol is a privacy-focused protocol that was first introduced by an anonymous developer in 2016. It is designed to address privacy and scalability issues in traditional blockchain networks, such as Bitcoin. Mimblewimble builds upon existing cryptographic technologies like Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC), Confidential Transactions, Dandelion, CoinJoin, and Cut-Through to enhance security and anonymity.

Key Features of MimblewimbleCoin (MWC)

  • Scalability: MimblewimbleCoin increases network scalability by implementing CoinJoin and Cut-Through protocols, reducing block sizes and eliminating unnecessary transaction information. This results in a compact and efficient blockchain.
  • Privacy: The protocol ensures absolute anonymity by not disclosing sender or receiver addresses, transaction amounts, or any addresses in blocks.
  • Fungibility: The protocol is highly fungible as users can freely exchange any MWC without the risk of coins being "tainted" due to past transactions.
  • Security: The proof-of-work consensus mechanism and ECC ensure robust security and the integrity of transactions.
  • Atomic Swaps: Support for atomic swaps, allowing for secure, decentralized exchanging of assets without the need for trustless intermediaries.
  • Durable and Indestructible: Transactions are stored and verified on the blockchain, which is fully parameterizable and resilient to censorship and exploitation.

MWC Roadmap

  • GUI Wallet: Development of a robust and user-friendly graphical user interface (GUI) wallet to enhance user experience.
  • Mobile Wallet: Development of mobile wallets to expand MWC usage across different devices.
  • NIT Non-Interactive Transactions: Collaboration with prominent cryptographers to assess the viability of Non-Interactive Transactions for enhancing transaction privacy and efficiency.
  • Censorship Resistant: Constantly improving MWC's censorship resistance features to maintain the integrity of transactions.

Governance and Tasks

  • MWC Development Team: Ensures the continued development and refinement of MWC to achieve superior monetary characteristics such as recognizability, scarcity, and divisibility.
  • Mining: Encourages mining activities to secure the network through decentralized proof-of-work consensus and compensates miners with MWC tokens.
  • Full Node: Ensures the maintenance and operation of a robust full node infrastructure to validate and distribute MWC transactions.

Capabilities

  • MWC Coin: The native cryptocurrency for the Mimblewimble protocol.
  • Decentralized Atomic Swaps: Enables secure, decentralized exchanging of assets without trustless intermediaries.
  • Secure Cold Storage: Solutions for safely storing MWC offline for long-term security.
  • Community Engagement: MWC fosters a community focused on innovation and the advancement of its technology to achieve the best in-class monetary characteristics.
