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.

Monero is a decentralized public ledger protocol whose focus is on increased privacy. It was created in 2014, with the goal of establishing a privacy focused blockchain that would allow users to send and receive transactions anonymously, and not pseudo-anonymously, like Bitcoin.
Monero uses an obfuscated public ledger that prevents anyone from determining the source, destination, or amount of payments. Unlike many other cryptocurrencies, payments and account balances on Monero remain entirely hidden. This is one reason that XMR, the Monero currency, has attracted some users that are involved with illicit activities.
Monero uses a Proof of Work consensus mechanism that requires less computing power from miners than Bitcoin does. Because of this, mining Monero has become an alternative source of revenue for some websites and apps. .

Hush is a cryptocurrency and messaging protocol that is focused on privacy. It uses a the equihash mining algorithm, which is a Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus mechanism. It offers a high degree of privacy, and allows users to transact and send messages anonymously.
Hush is a fork of Zcash, and uses zk-SNARKS for zero-knowledge cryptography. Hush will allow developers to deploy Ethereum smart contracts on the Hush network.
The founders of Hush are closely associated with Komodo.
