Fuego is a decentralized p2p privacy blockchain banking network based from the CryptoNote protocol, that enables value within its network to inherit sound money properties and the benefits of modern private banking like secure storage of value, untraceable peer-to-peer payments & transfers, zero-knowledge collateralization with zkSTARKs, & access to high-tier defi interest on XFG deposit yield.
Developed by advocates for freedom thru sound money, Fuego functions as a free & fully open-source blockchain bank providing an alternative to tyranny centralized banking. Through it's decentralized design, the Fuego p2p network is owned not by any 'one' person- nor singular entity, corrupt governments, or evil corp_orations- instead, Fuego is owned by it's users thru p2p distributed consensus. Available online 24/7/365 & freely accessible to anyone with an internet connection- worldwide; as a public tool for digital privacy, economic sovereignty, and financial freedom.
Unique features of Fuego include ultra-secure p2p wallet messaging, as well as time-locked (3 months or 1 year terms) on-chain deposits, also known as COLD: an initiative to earn (defi) interest on $XFG Certificate Of Ledger Deposit yield. (alpha version available, with zk-proofs and smart contract interest redemption expected early 2026. update: 2/26 live on TESTNET)
XFG (or β² /π₯) is anti-fragile privacy cryptocurrency and accounting unit(s) used within Fuego network's blockchain ledger. XFG is minted into existance by block reward and distributed to miners in exchange for processing power to secure Fuego's blockchain using ASIC-resistant proof of work consensus, approximately every 8 minutes. Each XFG is divisible up to 7 decimal places, and just like USD cents or BTC sats- each XFG can be referenced down to singular (atomic) units called Δ§eat
Any transaction made in XFG is private by default, much like cash money is- but also adds transaction mixing with dynamic ring signature decoy count (8 to 18) for maximum possible obfuscation- and all without debasement of currency thru inflation issued at will by central banksters. [insert brrr meme]
Unlike traditional fiat currencies issued by central banking cartels of our world, XFβ² is more accurately defined as a form of hard money for its fixed, yet dynamic money supply of 8 Million XFβ². And unlike most PoW cryptocurrencies of today, Fuego is designed to thrive within a disinflationary ecosystem; incentived thru XFG transaction fees, C0DL3 gas fees, & banking fees from certificates of deposit COLD transactions (0.1% rate fee on each XFG deposit amount- interest rates determined by C0LDAO) all paid to miners and Elderfiers. . Eventually, Γlder Kings Council (see below) will handle Fuego side of voting decisions regarding COLD & XFG burn (banking) fees.
Fuego Γlder Kings Council is a group of active & incredibly badass Fuego Ξlderfier* operators contributing to the further development of USEXFG's open-source code repositories and expansion of the XFβ² ecosystem (merchants, services, tools, etc) by running stable service nodes which periodically attest to the veracity of Fuego blockchain merkle roots, that enable trustless cross-chain communication with Fuego's L3 privacy rollup (zkC0DL3) as well as, other platforms &/or broader crypto ecosystem. As a result, zkC0DL3 gas fees (HEAT) are exclusively reserved for, and equally distributed (with privacy) to, participating Ξlderfiers. However, before zkC0DL3 rollup launches, Ξlderfiers will earn all Fuego banking fees of 0.1% on each burn or COLD transaction amount- after zkC0DL3 launches, banking fees may return to Fuego miners as gas fees from all L3 activity are earned by Ξlderfiers, exclusively. (* Requires a valid stake of 4000 XFG for on-chain Ξlderfier registration.)
(*) Eldernodes are basic service nodes which earn a percentage for each txn they relay on Fuego network. Eventually Ξlderfiers (staked nodes) will also provide these relay operations, in addition to verifying merkle roots for cross-chain communication.

Fuego exists only as a result of open-source contributions and regular people like you & I running free (as in freedom) software on our machines. Whether it be an act of altruism, rebellion, or an act of freedom- our action is what matters. One could even escape the clutches of tyranny (were conditions as such) by choosing the routine action of simply accepting payment in decentralized privacy currencies for PEER-based transactions already happening throughout our normal human interactions in everyday life.
