Stable coin was supposed to provide this, but it seems dead now.
Our only hope is zero or anoncoin.
Topic: Most anonymous coin? (Read 1317 times)
I am not an anomnity expert so I asked about the TIPS anomnity service on their latest announcement thread. Although the person who replied has not extensively studied dark coin's dark send service, he seems to know exactly how TIPS anomnity service works.
Well the coin mixer is properly working. The beta testing phase ended in early february and it's fully integrated to the wallet since 0.60.
When you check the "Anonymise coins" checkbox in your wallet before sending your coins, they will be sent to a certified node which will mix it twith others and then send it to the person you wanted them send to.
With that process, only you, the receiver (supposedly) and the node knows about your transaction.
As far as I know it is totally anonymous. But I didn't read the critics about Darksend, nor the Darksend description either...
Is the TIPS coin mixer currently the only non-beta anonymous way to send money to people?
I know darkcoin has something called dark send in beta, and other coins are developing anonymity services, but I cannot find any other coin than TIPS with an anonymity service out of beta. I also heard dark send does not offer anonymity. Does TIPS offer a higher degree of anonymity?

Anoncoin and zerocoin
I know tips has a mixing service because I have some tips. There is an option in the wallet to enable the service. I don't know much about it and have never used it, but someone on here said it could give transactions a certain degree of anomnity.
Considering all the other coins offering anomnity services are still in beta, maybe tips is worth a look. It has been offering the service for a while now and it's out of beta.

There is one new-old strange and mysterious absolutely (as developers say) anonymous coin based on break through new technology - (lots of questions) -
Bytecoin (BCN) http://bytecoin.org
The name is confusing, since there are 2 more Bytecoins.
But that one seems to be so serious, that may make a competition with Bitcoin, and even may win it.
There is still no official announce, DStrange found that coin

I feel There is not any anonymous coins around now,Agree upstairs view.
.
Now there is no anonymous coins, and even zerocoin too. .
while darkcoin is still in beta, it is in the final stages. It has the capability to provide a meaningful amount of anonymity and not just in theory.
Darkcoin uses a hybrid conjoin and other systems to obfuscate transactions within the wallet in a decentralized solution. They/we call it DarkSend and it's in main net Beta which is downloadable and usable right now. It will go open source when Evan the developer feels it's finished. he wants to make sure as much as possible that it is stable and has no bugs. He's still expanding it. Right now there is a limit of 10 coin transactions, probably because he just has to write in the code for higher amounts.
Anyway, there's a white paper on the first page here you can read : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/anndash-dash-dashorg-first-self-funding-self-governing-crypto-currency-421615
Except for coins in the planning stages, I only know of third party trusted and centralized mixing services and any coin can use Tor. We would love to have you come by and take a look at our coin if you're interested. We're a nice friendly bunch of low key people. I think you'll like it there

what about anoncoin?
(edit just noticed someone also just posted about that).
I'd say being anon with payments of any kind through any system is alot down to the user and their knowledge on how to stay anon.

Anoncoin will start testing in the next couple weeks for its implementation of zerocoin.
good news.

Thanks for the conversation guys! I'll be watching for the irs to begin tracking people for big transactions soon and check out zerocash. 
I believe most all coins are semi anonymous
No fully anonymous coins are a good thing, believe it or not there are some sick people out there and this would make there life easier

Development is currently happening for Nxtcash mixing. Nxt will have it all, including anonymity.
I will be looking into zerocash ad hoping I havet missed the train if it started. Thanks a lot guys! I feel this will be the way may go who "forget" to register with the irs.....
Probably will be the Zero Coin whenever it makes an appearance
Zerocoin was the past, it was an extension for Bitcoin. Its devolopers are now working on newer version called Zerocash, defenitely it will offer best anonymity.
Agree, prevent crime and rhetorical discourse.

What do you say about DarkCoin and TIPS(mixing service)?
Darkcoin is very good at marketing, but don't deliver what it promise. The biggest hope for anonymity right now is zerocash (paper to be released in mai) and anoncoin who are implementing the original zerocoin extension that were created for bitcoin. Read the quote below from another thread explaining the problem with darkcoin.
Or perhaps Darkcoin once it's made open source? (don't think it is yet...)
Darkcoin use CoinJoin method, much like Shared Coin service of Blockchain.info. We can still practice CoinJoin within Bitcoin system, therefore Darkcoin offer nothing new. CoinJoin doesn't hide your transactions completely, it just make harder to trace your money flow. With proper data mining and data analysis, your transactions might still be traced. And federal agencies have more than enough human & technology resource to do that. Zerocoin is another story, i'm excited to see what Zerocash will bring to crypto world.
Once the community is better educated I expect darkcoin price to plummet. Darkcoin is also extremly instamined and have a very unfair distribution compared to a lot of coins. The blocks started out at 500 and is now down to 20 (actually as low as 17) after just over 2 months. Most coins dont halv block rewards for years. Anoncoin 2 years, Litecoin 4 years etc to ensure a fair distribution. If darkcoin had been as fair as those coins with constant block reward there would only have been 837,840 coins, but there is mined 3,848,614 DRK. That mean that 3 million coins is instamined for the devs/early adopters. With 22 mill total coins that is a 13,7% instamine. I now that it is coded that way and supposed to be like that, but that don't make it fair.
I feel good when someone know what is the real truth.
