About Ryo Currency
Ryo Currency in Jun 2018 and based on the Cryptonote foundations of Monero, Ryo is headed by fireice_uk and psychocrypt, a duo with development work on opensource mining software proof of work algorithms.
The team claims that the Ryo blockchain does not have the 0-mixin Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT) that characterize older Cryptonote chains because Ryo has ring sizes of 25. These settings reportedly reduce the chances of being identified and traced by blockchain statistical analysis. The Ryo developers implemented a uniform transaction ID system that hides the use of payment
Ryo Currency because all transactions now have a uniform ID that is retrofitted with the old payment ID system. The team claims that Ryo is the first amongst various Cryptonote currencies to implement this feature, which addresses the metadata leak that reportedly affects Cryptonote coins with payment IDs.
Ryo aims to function as a store of value that is suitable for highly confidential transactions. The core mission of the project is to deliver a currency with true fungibility. This means that each coin is equal and interchangeable; the team claims that it is highly unlikely that any coin can ever by blacklisted due to previous transactions.
Confidently Transact with the Highest Degree of Anonymity
Private
Ryo was conceived with the highest levels of privacy in mind. From day one, Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT) with minimum ringsize of 25 were implemented to conceal every transaction. Ryo Blockchain analysis is impractical. Have piece of mind knowing that what you choose to do with your money is your business, not anyone else’s.
Untraceable
As privacy is the core foundation of Ryo, sending and receiving addresses are encrypted and transaction amounts are obfuscated by default. Disposable ghost addresses conceal your real Ryo address from senders, allowing for truly anonymous and untraceable transactions. The uniform payment ID system, makes transactions that use payment ID-s untraceable and hides the very fact that you use ID-s.
Decentralized
Ryo Currency adds privacy to the core of Satoshi’s vision of a decentralized, trustless cryptocurrency. Many other cryptocurrencies fell prey to centralization caused by ASICS/FPGA/BOTNETS. Ryo will – as it has in the past – not allow this type of centralization to occur on its network through continued development of Ryo and its Cryptonight-GPU algorithm.
Fungible
Ryo is truly fungible because of its built-in privacy features. Just like cash, nobody knows who had possesion of any particluar coin before them. Even better than cash, nobody knows the identity of who they’re sending their coins to. It is extremely unlikely that Ryo will ever be blacklisted by any third party due to any association in prior transactions.
Anonymous
Ryo Currency allows you to use a new ghost address for every transaction you receive. Never receive coins with the same address twice, even further reducing the astronomically tiny chance of you and your transactions to be traced.

- Make use of all available security features. Make the most of all the security features your wallet offers, such as two-factor authentication or multi-signature transactions. It’ll offer increased protection for your funds and greater peace of mind for you.
- Update your antivirus software. Take care to regularly update the antivirus protection and anti-malware software on any device you will be using to access your wallet.
