LATEST RELEASE

WHAT IS AEON?

Aeon (AEON) is a private, secure, untraceable currency. You are your bank, you control your funds, and nobody can trace your transfers.

Privacy: By default, AEON utilizes a cryptographic system to transfer funds without the identifying information of each user becoming visible on the blockchain.
Security: Each transaction is secured with robust cryptography and distributed through a global peer-to-peer consensus network.
Untraceability: AEON uses ring signatures to make transactions untraceable, meaning it is very difficult for blockchain analysis to determine if funds have been spent.

EXPLICIT WARNINGS

Remote Nodes

Aeon-Wallet.net uses an outdated version and is therefore no longer compatible with newer versions. Using remote nodes offered there will no longer work.

Exchanges

HitBTC exchange has long refused to update wallet software after a hard fork and thus deposits and withdrawals were not possible, which makes it not very trustworthy. Use on your own risk.
