Beam is an anonymous privacy-oriented cryptocurrency based on the Mimblewimble protocol. Its transactions are private and anonymous by default.
Mimblewimble is a framework people can use to build privacy cryptocurrencies. It consists of several key elements, each of which grants a certain type of privacy. For example, one element hides transaction amounts and coin histories while another conceals wallet addresses. These individual elements were separately designed for Bitcoin originally, but Mimblewimble was the first to put them all together in a way that they could work together. The result wasn’t compatible with Bitcoin though, which is why Beam was created from scratch.
Privacy is a highly desirable feature for digital currency in a quickly changing world. At the same time, a completely anonymous digital currency is unlikely to receive a warm welcome from regulators. Beam, with its opt-in disclosure modes, is an effort to solve this.
BEAM is the privacy coin native to the Beam protocol
