MimbleWimbleCoin

MimbleWimbleCoin (MWC) is an implementation of a blockchain protocol called Mimblewimble. MimbleWimble provides privacy and scalability by verifying that all transactions are valid without storing the entire chain history. The mission of MWC is to match and exceed every other traditional currency in the market to produce good and qualitative currency.

As per the whitepaper, Bitcoin set the standard of digital currency in the market. But Bitcoin lacks a few of the key characteristics of a sound currency. MimbleWimble technology was created to solve privacy and convertible deficiencies while also providing good network scalability. MWC uses Confidential Transactions at the core of its design, which means that all the amounts are blinded. 

The main idea behind Confidential Transactions is it proves that the sum of the input amounts minus the output amounts to zero. All transactions within MimbleWimble keep the data about the sender, receiver, and amount private. Each MWC is fungible as it does not have a unique transaction history recorded on a public ledger. Fungible means something (such as currency or a commodity) is of such a nature that another equal part may replace one part or quantity.

MWC offers scarcity, fungibility, security, scalability, and privacy. The MWC development team strives for technological and economic innovation in order to maximize the MimbleWimble protocol's benefits. The MWC team has created a functional GUI (graphical user interface) wallet and developed a method for secure offline cold storage of MWC. The team also completed an MWC/BTC atomic swap and is investigating the development of a mobile node (point of intersection within a network). An atomic swap is a transaction in which coins from different blockchains are exchanged.

The MWC network launched in November 2019. The whitepaper was released on July 19, 2016. MWC has a maximum supply of 20,000,000 coins.
