Is MimbleWimbleCoin a good investment?

Some key aspects related to MimbleWimble that investors should consider include:
  • Sophisticated design: According to Binance Academy, the platform makes use of the controversial ‘CoinJoin module’ that makes transactions anonymous by clubbing a number of payments into one data set before relaying them back into the network. The system was devised by Blockstream’s Gregory Maxwell and is considered to be one of the most secure means of transferring confidential data in the world today.
  • Compact ledger size: Unlike a number of larger platforms like Bitcoin and Ethereum, MimbleWimble makes use of a technology referred to as “cut-through” which allows the platform to condense all of its in/out transactions into smaller blocks, thus allowing faster throughput rates.
  • Ease of use: MimbleWimble offers an extremely high level of transactional ease by allowing its users to exchange/utilize pretty much any crypto in existence today.
  • Scalability: Owing to the fact that MimbleWimble’s native block size is much smaller than that of Bitcoin, as well as many other major crypto ecosystems, the platform is able to scale up/down as and when required.
