Could you elaborate on the concept of a natural mask network? Is it a type of encryption technology? Or perhaps a decentralized platform that offers anonymity? How does it differ from traditional masking methods? I'm particularly interested in understanding its core principles and potential applications in the realm of cryptocurrency and finance. Is it designed to safeguard user privacy? Could it be leveraged for secure transactions or to obfuscate financial trails? Your insight into this intriguing technology would be greatly appreciated.
