Notes: This tracker shows actual private value — full market cap for private-by-default coins, or amount held in privacy pools/protocols. Privacy loves company. The larger the crowd, the stronger the privacy. Total private value serves as a proxy for anonymity set weight.
Privacy pools/protocols: • Aztec*: Ethereum L2 privacy TVL • Decred CSPP: DCR mixed via CoinShuffle++ (66.2% of supply) • Namada MASP: Multi-Asset Shielded Pool TVL (Cosmos L1) • Litecoin MWEB: LTC in MimbleWimble Extension Blocks (0.50% of supply) • Railgun*: Multichain private DeFi TVL • Tornado Cash: ETH + multichain mixing pool TVL • Whirlpool: CoinJoin unspent capacity (combined: 6259.51 BTC) • Zcash shielded: ZEC in shielded pools (31.1% of supply)
Price and % changes reflect underlying asset where applicable. Aztec, Namada, Railgun, and Tornado Cash show no % changes (mixed-asset TVL). Volume shows "-" for pool entries.
*Interface-level compliance features (Aztec, Firo, Railgun, Zano — optional, not protocol-level). See caveats. MimbleWimble projects (Grin, MWC, Epic Cash, Beam) have known linkability limitations. Secret Network uses TEE (hardware trust). See caveats.
