Cryptocurrencies have become popular in the last decade. Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Shiba Inu witnessed a rise with a large number of fresh crypto investors coming into the market in 2021.

Dash coin: One of the other private cryptocurrencies that conceal the identities of the users. The coin allows its user to choose whether or not their transactions are privately using the PrivateSend feature. This feature enables its users to stay secure on using coins against certain countries’ regulatory standards.
Zcash (ZEC): Considering its advanced security and privacy features, Zcash is one of the safest forms of digital currency in the world. A crytographic-encrypted tool called Zero-Knowledge Proof along with allowing users to shield transactions, Xcash is rightfully considered to be the best private cryptocurrency.
Verge (XVG): This is another popular private crypto that secures the identity of the users. XVG uses the already existing technology of The Onion Router (TOR) and the Invisible Internet Project to protect the identities of the users.
