## What it is
MobileCoin is a privacy-preserving cryptocurrency payments network designed for mobile devices, implemented in Rust. The repository contains the full stack: BFT consensus, blockchain ledger, private transactions, Intel SGX enclave support, and the mobilecoind daemon.

## Use cases
- run a private payments network for mobile devices
- operate a MobileCoin validator node
- synchronize and query the MobileCoin blockchain with mobilecoind
- build privacy-preserving transaction systems
- develop against MobileCoin testnet or mainnet

## When to choose
- you need privacy-focused digital payments with low mobile bandwidth requirements
- you want to run validator or watcher nodes for the MobileCoin network
- you need SGX-based remote attestation for transaction privacy

## When to avoid
- you need a general-purpose smart contract platform
- you want a simple wallet app without running infrastructure
- your environment cannot support Intel SGX dependencies
