About Firo

Firo is a proof-of-work cryptocurrency that implements cryptographic privacy protocols for on-chain transaction anonymity. Its primary privacy mechanism, Lelantus Spark, provides anonymity sets up to 2^15 without requiring trusted setup. The network uses FiroPoW, a GPU-mining consensus algorithm, combined with LLMQ Chainlocks to mitigate 51% attacks and enable rapid transaction finality. The protocol incorporates a masternode network for additional functionality. Firo's total coin supply is capped at 21.4 million with tail emission. The system includes Spark Assets, a feature that obscures asset type information in transfers. The project has produced academic research on privacy protocols including Zerocoin, Sigma, Lelantus, and MTP, some of which have been adopted by other blockchain projects. The architecture supports applications requiring transaction privacy, such as anonymous voting systems and tokenized assets.
