# Anonymity mining

Anonymity mining is an incentive to increase the level of privacy in any coin-joining or coin-mixing protocols by rewarding participants anonymity points (AP) dependent on how long they hedge their assets in a pool.

*This incentive began on* January *18, 2022 and will end on* January *18, 2023.*

Individuals deposit to any one of the anonymity pools that are supported (ETH, WBTC, WBNB or cDAI) and are rewarded a fixed amount of AP per block, over the period their deposit remains in the pool. These points can then be exchanged for ANON once claimed.
