Your transactions are not private

Current digital cash systems such as Venmo and Bitcoin bring convenience at the expense of staggering privacy concessions.



Corporate solutions such Venmo are often "free" because selling transaction data is more profitable than charging fees. Users increasingly need to share sensitive information with others just to send money to friends, family, and merchants.



It is a common misconception that any cryptocurrency (e.g. Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc) is anonymous and private; however, they are effectively transparent. Their public ledgers allows anybody in the world to see account balances and payments. Entire industries exist around tracing cryptocurrency activity, and linking it to real-life identities. Monero protects your sensitive personal financial information to prevent this type of surveillance and allow you to transact safely with peace of mind.



You are the owner of your own private bank. You can interact in the digital world without forfeiting your rights.
