Zcoin has implemented the Zerocoin Protocol, one of the most groundbreaking academic developments in Bitcoin research. The Zerocoin Protocol uses Zero-Knowledge proofs to guarantee complete financial privacy and anonymity.
In Bitcoin, all transactions are broadcasted on a public ledger. Research has shown that external information, such as publicly announced addresses, can be used to link identities and organizations to transactions. The default reuse of bitcoin addresses exacerbates this problem. Furthermore, the same type of mechanism used to break privacy in social networks, such as the analysis of social network topology, can be used to break privacy in the Bitcoin network.
Zerocoin technology ensures that Zcoin's transactions are kept completely private.
