DAPS, which stands for Decentralized, Anonymous, Payment, System, is developing a privacy focused cryptocurrency. It is currently an Ethereum-based token, but they are planning on releasing their own blockchain to host the project. DAPS uses the Harpocrates protocol to allow users to send and receive DAPS tokens anonymously. DAPS was previously associated with PeepCoin project, but a disagreement between the developers of the project, ended plans for an airswap of the two privacy focused cryptocurrency projects.

DigitalNote is developing a privacy focused blockchain whose transactions will be resistant to analysis. The network will have a hybrid Proof-of-Work (PoW) and Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism and will be powered by the native XDN coin.

Haven is developing a blockchain-based ecosystem of multiple decentralized coins. The Haven protocol places an emphasis on privacy and price-stability, and like Monero, is based on the CryptoNote protocol. Haven has a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism that is AISC-resistant, and has a dynamic block size. The platform is powered by the XHV coin.
