This is achieved by concealing the origin of the transaction and the destination. There are several techniques that are used and some of them are mixing several transactions together to evade blockchain analysis and concealing the real wallet address and balance of the user.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and other non-privacy cryptos, they allow anybody to see the transactions and public addresses of the users on their chain for the sake of transparency. This makes it easy to track users\u2019 withdrawals and deposits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, private cryptocurrency introduces two new features &#8211; untraceability and anonymity. Untraceability prevents the tracing of transactions by third parties on the chain making it very hard to do even with services like blockchain analysis. Anonymity makes it possible to conceal the identity of those behind the transaction process.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-590\" src=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator-300x41.png\" alt=\"What are privacy coins?\" width=\"739\" height=\"101\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator-300x41.png 300w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator-1024x141.png 1024w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator-768x106.png 768w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator-210x29.png 210w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Exchange-BTC-to-XMR-BTC-to-ETH-at-the-best-rate-with-crypto-a-exchange-aggregator.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 739px) 100vw, 739px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2><b>List of private cryptocurrencies<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some of the topmost private cryptocurrency coins, the list of privacy coins includes the likes of <a href=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/currencies\/monero\">Monero<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/currencies\/zcash\">Zcash<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/currencies\/verge\">Verge<\/a>, and more.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Monero (XMR)<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <a href=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/learn\/bitcoin-to-xmr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">XMR coin<\/a> is gaining popularity rapidly and that is because it is able to provide users with the anonymity they crave for. Transactions that occur on Monero are quite hard to trace due to the technical features that are used such as stealth addresses and ring signatures. These features enable the platform to conceal the identities of the receiver as well as the sender. Also, by using Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT), Monero is able to hide the amount transacted thereby offering more privacy. It is easily one of the top privacy coins.<\/span><b><\/b><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-982\" src=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/xmr-pr-300x52.png\" alt=\"Monero (XMR)\" width=\"744\" height=\"129\" srcset=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/xmr-pr-300x52.png 300w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/xmr-pr-768x133.png 768w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/xmr-pr-210x36.png 210w, https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/xmr-pr.png 834w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 744px) 100vw, 744px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Verge (XVG)<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Talking of cryptocurrency privacy coins, we have to consider<a href=\"https:\/\/swapzone.io\/blog\/what-is-verge-and-how-to-exchange-bitcoin-to-verge\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Verge<\/a>.

By using TOR, it allows Verge to relay user\u2019s connections through a distributed network of relays and tunnels operated by volunteers worldwide. This allows Verge to conceal the user\u2019s identity. The other feature, which is the I2P enables data encryption before it is sent through the TOR network.
