Looks like uses some same techs as Monero. (Confidential Transactions, no amount, no address)

It's mathematically different from Monero, and is thought to be significantly more secure. It also has some very interesting properties like allowing the blockchain to be represented in a totally different way, using only a tiny amount of data.

It is not thought to be significantly more secure. It runs on the same cryptographic assumptions as monero, but with a de novo implementation that hasn’t received very much review.

[zik]

It's thought to be less susceptible to tracability analysis than Monero.
