Monero Internals: Cryptography & Protocol Deep Dive

For people who find the rest too easy. The real math and machinery: the Ed25519 group and key derivation, stealth-address ECDH, CLSAG ring signatures and key images, RingCT with Pedersen commitments and Bulletproofs+, the byte-level anatomy of a transaction, and RandomX, block weight and the fee algorithm. Ends with a brutal quiz.
