Monero is evolved from CryptoNote, which is a completely independent code base from Bitcoin emphasizing privacy as opposed to Bitcoin's transparent blockchain. The Monero team has developed further innovations over the CryptoNote code base making it the most private cryptocurrency ever, and the first in the world with true fungibility.
