About Grin
Grin is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency implementation of Mimblewimble.
Background
In August 2016, someone called Tom Elvis Jedusor placed the original Mimblewimble white paper on a bitcoin research channel, and then disappeared.
In October 2016, Andrew Poelstra, a mathematician at Blockstream, wrote a precise paper, made precise Tom's original idea, and added further scaling improvements on it.
A few days later, Ignotus Peverell started a Github project called Grin, and began turning the MimbleWimble paper into something real.
Since then, Grin has grown into a working blockchain developed by various members of the community, and after several stages of development, has launched in January 2019.
