How to escape financial repression with Ergo?

Ergo provides tools for financial sovereignty: self-custody with no third parties, censorship-resistant transactions via PoW, optional privacy with Sigma Protocols, and programmable money without permission. Unlike VC-backed chains, Ergo has no central authority that can freeze funds or comply with sanctions. Your keys, your coins, your freedom.

  • Self-custody: no banks, no intermediaries, no permission needed
  • Censorship-resistant: PoW mining, no validator committees to pressure
  • Optional privacy: Sigma Protocols, ErgoMixer for when you need it
  • Fair launch: no VC control, no pre-mine, community-owned
  • Programmable: build your own financial tools
