**So what is Taelon anyway?**

Taelon $DTN is a fork of the Cryptonote cryptocurrency platform. It shares it's lineage with coins like Monero $XMR and Electroneum $ETN.

"Taelon" is a play on the word "tael" and "talon" to reinforce the nature and security of the coin's anonymity.
The Taelon.io project is 100% open source and open access. We are still growing our community and we would appreciate any and all involvement from anyone who wants to be a part of what we are doing.

I really like the reasons the team decided to bring this #privacycoin to life.

When I researched $DTN I found the following from Discord very exciting. What do you think?

They are making some changes as the name used to be Dark Taelon but now the team decided to go with Taelon and keep $DTN as the ticker.

Here are some changes they are currently implementing in their own words from the discord chat.

Lastly, $DTN has an ongoing bounty going on which we can all take part in to help grow the community. To me this is an organic way to help out and to feel like an important part of the team. We all can make a difference in some way if we choose to.
