Epic Cash (ticker EPIC, also called Epic Private Internet Cash) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency built on the Mimblewimble protocol.
It makes transactions private by default at the protocol level. The mainnet launched on September 2, 2019, with no ICO and no premine, and coins enter circulation only through mining. The supply is capped at 21 million coins. Mining uses several proof-of-work algorithms: RandomX for CPUs, ProgPow for GPUs and Cuckatoo for ASICs. The project is developed by a volunteer community that calls itself the Freeman Family, and its code is maintained in the EpicCash GitHub organization. The mainnet remains live, with the v4 node and wallet releases continuing through 2026.

“If you have a network with optional privacy then most people are not going to use that option. If you look at Zcash in particular, something like 1% or even less than 1% of transactions are actually private.”

“If you took the entire Bitcoin transaction history since 2009 and put that on the Monero structure, the Zcash structure, and the Epic structure, you'd be talking into the mid single digits of terabytes, whereas Epic would be somewhere between 25 to 50 gigabytes.”
▶Watch at 9:40 - MFMax Freeman · Epic Cash founder explains how it differs from Bitcoin
“Even though there's only 20 million BTC coins out on the network, those have been fractionally reserved to the extent of probably as high as 50 million.”
▶Watch at 4:17“As the world moves to CBDC, you have a situation where there's restrictions that are baked into the money, so people will see the value when those restraints on their other forms of money come in.”
