Crypto payments with more privacy

At the end of 2024, the news emerged about the new crypto payments with more privacy protection, which would have been adopted by major global brands like Burger King, Shopify, Travala, and AT&T

In practice, this new service would have been offered by the partnership of Zano and NOWPayment

In practice, Zano is the L1 blockchain founded by Andrey Sabelnikov, who is the developer of CryptoNote, the private currency protocol used by Monero and other projects. NOWPayments, on the other hand, is the highly demanded crypto gateway by merchants that also offers invoicing, billing, plugins, API, PoS payment services

Given that the platforms of the major brands have integrated NOWPayments, with the ongoing collaboration with Zano, they could have chosen to accept crypto payments with more privacy.
