Majority of votes for Option 2Thus following description has been selected for describing the particl project on coinmarketcap.com:
Particl Coin (PART) is an independent digital currency that offers superior data protection and privacy technology. It acts as the settlement-layer for each transaction made on any Particl application, including Particl Marketplace, and secures the needed privacy features. Payments, in fiat or digital currency, are converted into PART to empower users with true privacy and freedom.
Particl Marketplace is a multi-vendor marketplace like Amazon but with no-middleman, no-commissions, near-zero fees, and no login-data requirement. It preserves your privacy, making you earn more money while being able to have products at more reasonable prices, and it protects its vendor’s supply-chains and interests. Particl Marketplace protects users from scam attacks, and enforces parties to comply with their agreements with its built-in automated dual-escrow system and enables anybody to operate an independent and private restrictable storefront on their own.
Particl launched in July 2017 and is a privacy-first and worldwide censorship-resistant eCommerce platform. They delivered the Particl Marketplace application and the digital privacy currency PART. These privacy features include Confidential Transactions with Bullet Proofs from the Blockstream Elements project (to hide tx amounts), Ring Signatures from CryptoNote/Monero (to hide party addresses) and SMSG, a DHT embedded in the node stack for carrying rich data such as listings images and chat messages, without bloating the ledger. The Particl blockchain, which is always updated to the latest Bitcoin Core code, makes usage of the PoS3 protocol, is Cold Staking enabled and supports hardware wallets.
