Beam

Beam is a scalable confidential cryptocurrency using Mimblewimble as a basis for its decentralized and permissionless blockchain. Beam has capped emission with periodic halvings and uses proof-of-work mining for securing the network. Without any address information stored on the blockchain and keeping transactions private by default, Beam is meant to provide users with control over privacy in its compact design. Beam's long-term vision is to create a currency that combines full confidentiality with opt-in compliance, letting both businesses and individuals use it without compromising their privacy.
