Kept hidden, as information

Answer:

SATON

Hint:

Think of a past tense verb meaning "to remain unused or unnoticed," often used when something is stored away or overlooked. It’s also a homophone for a common unit of currency.

Explanation:

The clue "Kept hidden, as information" hints at the answer "SATON," which is a playful twist on the word "stashed." The answer is formed by taking the word "stash" (meaning to hide something away) and adding "on" at the end, creating a new but phonetically similar word. It’s a clever way to suggest secrecy while keeping the solution simple and wordplay-based.
