Description:

A minimal implementation of the MimbleWimble blockchain in Rust. Bitcoin introduced the first incarnation of the concept of a blockchain with its corresponding cryptocurrency. MimbleWimble is an extension of the original idea but provides much better privacy and scalability characteristics. The main concept is described here: https://download.wpsoftware.net/bitcoin/wizardry/mimblewimble.txt

Because MimbleWimble itself relies on a simple yet robust cryptographic construct (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) we aim to keep that simplicity goal in mind. It's also our belief that bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies crumble under the weight of complexity and technical debt. Our goal is to have a clean implementation that many can review, learn from, and build upon.
