Z technology seems good candidate for such a currency.
However the specific instance of it is far from determined.
For example, though zcash (ZEC) has big marketing names
behind it, actual mining stats put zclassic (ZCL) on a path to
overtake zcash. The users behind those stats do not like being
taxed by those big names, and since ZEC is opensource,
ZCL chose to refuse to pay that tax, forked, and tracks ZEC
code thus letting ZEC do their development for them for free,
at least if and until such time as ZEC becomes irrelavant
or ZCL finds need to do more or differently.
