Basic explanation of what the MimbleWimble protocol is.
MimbleWimble is an exciting new protocol that reduces the data of transactions, increasing the privacy and scalability of blockchains.

It is possible to integrate MimbleWimble via a sidechain to Bitcoin.

Also dicussing 2 cryptocurrencies with close ties to the protocol: Grin & Beam, but also discussing a third one that is fairly new and unknown that has MimbleWimble features in its mining algorithm: Swap.

  1. Greetings. Just a small clarification. Swap isn't an implementation of the MimbleWimble protocol, but it uses a variation of the PoW algorithm used by Grin, Cuckaroo29. The project itself uses the CryptoNote protocol for the privacy features. The reason for its adoption is because Cuckaroo is a more simple algorithm than CryptoNight, commonly used by the other CryptoNote coins. Cuckaroo is far less CPU intensive, which means it takes less time and resources for a node to validade and sync the blocks of the network, which was one of the improvements adopted that allowed Swap to safely have 15 seconds block time in a CryptoNote coin without a high orphan blocks rate.

  2. check out x42, feeless scalable and anonymous. Dedicated team too. Masternodes coming out soon. I will translate their whitepaper in dutch when the updated version comes out

  3. Neither are good investments. Both are just good for Bitcoin as a sidechain. Grin has way too much inflation and Beam's team holds too much. Avoid both IMO unless you want minimal gains.
