We strongly believe in privacy including for financial transactions. People should expect nothing less from a privacy project.

It should be obvious we aren't fans of traditional banking and financial services built to enable mass surveillance.

We also aren't fans of unencrypted blockchains and believe those should be fixed.

We believe in the privacy of cash being preserved in the same way we believe in people's private conversations and thoughts being protected.

@darkwolf People's conversations, thoughts and financial transactions have been largely private for most of human history. Law enforcement still managed to do their jobs. They can continue to do so in a world where privacy technologies preserve historical privacy norms.

We use and support open source projects working on restoring the privacy provided by cash including Monero. Moving from cash to credit cards, PayPal, etc. is an ongoing privacy disaster. Bitcoin and Ethereum currently are too.
