Beginner
What Is Monero?
What Monero is, why it's unique, where it came from, and the ideas — privacy and fungibility — that set it apart.
Your First Monero Wallet
Everything about wallets and keys: the wallet types, public vs private (spend and view) keys, your seed phrase, and how to create, receive and send safely.
Security & Self-Custody
Hold your own Monero safely: the self-custody mindset, securing your seed, passphrases, spotting scams, backups, and inheritance.
Intermediate
Getting Monero
Every way to get XMR — exchanges, no-KYC instant swaps, peer-to-peer, earning and mining — and how to choose based on privacy.
How Monero Works
The technology behind the privacy: stealth addresses, ring signatures, RingCT, network privacy, confirmations and fees — explained simply.
Using Monero in Practice
The day-to-day skills: checking your transactions without a public explorer, subaddresses, payment proofs, paying with XMR, and using a node over Tor.
Mining Monero
Earn XMR with your CPU: how RandomX mining works, solo vs pool, P2Pool, and what to consider before you start.
Advanced
Privacy Best Practices
Use Monero well: threat modeling, network privacy, avoiding metadata leaks, the truth about churning, and real-world OPSEC.
Coin Control & Advanced Wallet Use
Take full control: how outputs work, managing them to avoid linking, dusting attacks, multisig, hardware/cold storage, and watch-only auditing.
