PIVX (Private Instant Verified Transaction) is a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) digital currency launched in 2016 as a fork of DASH. It is managed by a Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO), meaning its governance and development are driven by its community of stakeholders. The project's core mission is to provide a sustainable and user-friendly cryptocurrency with a strong emphasis on privacy and security. PIVX utilizes the SHIELD protocol, a custom implementation of zk-SNARKs, to enable anonymous and untraceable transactions for its users.
