Top Privacy tokens by market capitalization

Privacy in blockchain and cryptocurrency systems relates to the capability of participants to keep certain information concealed from others. Transactions are recorded on a decentralized and publicly viewable ledger. However, privacy protocols are implemented to protect the identity of users and the details of their transactions. In the cryptocurrency world, privacy means concealing the sender, receiver, and amount involved in a transaction. The transparency of blockchain and cryptocurrency transactions offers security and accountability, but it may also raise concerns about user confidentiality and financial privacy. Privacy technologies like zero-knowledge proofs, confidential transactions, and coin mixing are employed to balance the need for transparency with the desire for privacy.
