Evaluation Scores

Encryption Architecture8

BIP47 stealth addresses, Whirlpool CoinJoin, and Ricochet transaction broadcasting for multi-layered transaction privacy.

Anonymous Usage8

Designed from the ground up for privacy with PayNym stealth codes, Whirlpool mixing, and Tor support.

Open Source & Auditability9

Fully open source; code has been forked and maintained by the community following the developer arrests.

Jurisdiction & Legal Protection3

US DOJ arrested the founders in April 2024 on money laundering charges; the case created existential legal risk for the project.

Track Record & Trust4

The arrest of its developers and seizure of servers in 2024 fundamentally undermined trust and operational continuity.

Usability & Accessibility5

Android-focused with a privacy-first design; complex feature set requires Bitcoin privacy knowledge to use effectively.

Cross-Platform Support3

Android only with no iOS or desktop app; post-arrest availability through alternative app stores only.

Anonymous Payment9

Free and open source; requires only Bitcoin, which can be obtained anonymously.
