Common is a privacy layer designed for all Web3 applications, focusing on transactional privacy across blockchains. HOPR provides network-level metadata privacy, protecting communication data like IP addresses and message routing rather than just transaction details. Common suits developers needing general Web3 privacy, while HOPR is better for users and applications requiring metadata obfuscation.

Common is a privacy layer for Web3 that combines a decentralized exchange, shielder contracts, and an MPC wallet to break the traceability of crypto activity without centralized exchanges. It uses zero-knowledge proofs to protect user privacy and mitigate MEV and frontrunning.
HOPR is a privacy-focused protocol that provides network-level metadata privacy for point-to-point data exchange. It operates an incentivized mixnet, enabling users to communicate with full control over their privacy and data. The project is now launching Gnosis VPN, a practical privacy product for everyday use.
