Looks like FIRO is soon going to attain new ATH 
How you figure? A couple of years ago when it had another name it was over $40 each.

I tried some DEX platforms, and many have only undisposable deposit addresses, like atomicDEX. Is this DEX made for supporting regulators?
Dex P2P exchange is basically made to allow the exchange without any entity between people, but the point is that companies like Elliptic which have big budgets and forensic tools and are now able to follow the non-private transactions. Lelantus solves this problem because if you deposit the funds on a public address from an anonymized Firo coin. The surveillance firms will be only able to see that funds have appeared on this address but will not be able to know where it comes from. after that when you have exchanged and want to withdraw anonymously, You can transfer the funds back to your FIRO wallet to anonymize them again. the
the only thing the surveillance firms have seen are the exchanges that were made on the DEX but they will not know the origin or where they are returned afterwards. To simplify, lelantus works in the following way. When you anonymize coins with lelantus it is as if you burn the coins and you receive a coupon of equivalent value to the coin you had, then you can then go anywhere and claim those coins with the coupon. it is impossible to know where it comes from since this coupon is only a proof that the Coins have been burned and that it can be claimed

It's true value and utility is yet to be realized by the masses but as regulations creep in and people lose control of their privacy technologies like Firo will come into their own especially with growing DEX support. Horizen only recently broke out from the $6 range and if one takes a look at Monero which literally went from zero to hero overnight it's not something anyone can predict but clearly there is utility for these currencies and it isn't only the dark web who value privacy. An innovative and driven project like Firo which continues to mature will have it's shine in the near future.
You could not say better, I was thinking the same thing, privacy is the very basis of crypto ... many people have forgotten it and others do not know it yet but, with the coming regulations, privacy coins will be useful more than ever. The dex exchanges are the exchanges of tomorrow which will replace the current exchanges When the government, which in addition to its regulations will apply too high a tax on all levels of transaction. Privacy coins traded on dex will be the only option To keep the current freedom. And we can no longer rely on zcash or horizen for complete privacy ....
watch this article
https://www.coindesk.com/elliptic-follows-chainalysis-in-adding-zcash-to-monitoring-platform
And just look at the article titles on the first google page for elliptic ... its nothing glorious for Zcash and Horizen to see their names in the elliptic surveillance list,
now we need private coins like FIRO which constantly evolves their FORENSIC PROOF privacy protocol

A promising future for FIRO !!

Undervalued hidden gem here .... -They have been in operation since September 28, 2016
-It has its own mining algorithm (MTP) (Asic and FPGA resistant)
-They just launched next-generation of privacy with Lelantus ...
-They continued to work hard on development and this continually even during the bearish times of crypto.
-Binance chose them among several others and added them 2 months ago in November 2020 ...
now let's do a little comparison
Firo / Horizen
Github commits 621 111
Twitter follower 67200 82000
Mining algo MTP Equihash
Privacy protocol Lelantus zk-SNARKs
This team does not just talk and make beautiful partnership posts like many ... they work hard and build solutions
Here you will find all the detailed documentation of how Lelantus works : http://www.onedapp.io/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Lelantus_Anonymous-Payement-System...pdf
and here : https://lelantus.io/
I really don't understand the price right now
Or rather I now understand why many people get caught by scam tokens created in less than 30min, few people take the time to read the detailed documentation. A good idea written on a white paper, A beautiful website with some famous logo, 2 or 3 influencer on youtube and a good marketing campaign and hundreds of people will buy without looking any further.
but it's good, meanwhile, good projects like this is growing under the radar and are currently at a discount.
Lelantus in summary

Lelantus, a revolutionary new privacy protocol born in our own labs is a few days away from activating on $FIRO's mainnet. Make sure to update to the latest wallet!
Lelantus offers the highest levels of practical anonymity without compromising on trustlessness.

I already predicted zcoin dump to 9000sat few months ago but you guys said me lunatic

Could you tell me why such rebranding? Who invented this idea?
Does it require any activity from hodlers or is it just a pure name change?
