Monero basics

 * What is Monero?
   
   Monero is a cryptocurrency, just like Bitcoin. Monero is an open-source
   software project for its own blockchain with a single token XMR. Monero is
   best known for its widespread privacy features. Monero is the only major
   cryptocurrency to hide the sender, receiver, and amount for all transactions.
   Privacy on Monero is far easier to achieve than privacy on other digital
   assets. Monero also includes optimizations for scaling and security. For
   example, Monero is the only major currency that people can mine with normal
   computers and phones. There is no company or foundation behind Monero, and
   the founders are anonymous. Despite this, Monero has one of the largest
   developer communities of any cryptocurrency.

 * Who is behind Monero?
   
   Monero does not have a company or foundation behind it. Monero.com is a
   website run by Cake Labs, the developer of Cake Wallet. The official Monero
   website is getmonero.org. Like Bitcoin, Monero has anonymous founders and is
   entirely community-run. Developers and researchers discuss proposals in the
   open and are subject to vigorous community review. Monero is one of the most
   active open source projects in the world. The Monero Core Team maintains
   essential Monero infrastructure, including the codebase. All changes are
   publicly reviewable.

 * How does Monero hide my money? How does it gives me privacy?
   
   Monero has the most complete privacy guarantees of any cryptocurrency. Every
   transaction hides the sender, receiver, and amount. This is enforced through
   strict consensus rules. Monero addresses never appear on the blockchain,
   ever. Instead, funds are transferred using stealth addresses. This completely
   prevents people from surveiling you by searching your address for related
   transactions. Transaction amounts are always hidden because of RingCT, which
   stands for ring confidential transactions. This prevents people knowing
   wallet balances at all using Bulletproof+ zero knowledge proofs. The source
   of funds spent in transactions (the transaction graph) is hidden with ring
   signatures, a part of RingCT. This process is completely non-interactive.
   Transactions appear to spend several sources of funds (including real money
   held by other people), without revealing the real source. Remember, the link
   between these sources of funds and addresses is also broken! Transactions are
   broadcast to the networking using Dandelion++, which makes it more difficult
   to determine the origin sending node. Monero software, including Cake Wallet
   and Monero.com, support connections over Tor as well. Every Monero
   transaction supports these enormous privacy enhancements without any user
   effort whatsoever.

 * How are new coins created? Where do they go?
   
   XMR is issued to miners according to a set reward schedule. There is no
   premine or any other issuance. Only approximately 150,000 XMR is issued each
   year going forward.

 * How can I mine Monero?
   
   Monero can be mined on normal computers and phones! Monero uses RandomX, an
   algorithm specially tailored to CPUs. You can easily mine with the Monero GUI
   for desktop and with some android phone apps. Mining is a competitive
   commodity market, so don't expect to make it rich just from mining! Many
   people mine to get access to XMR without needing to buy it on an exchange.

 * How can I buy Monero?
   
   You can buy Monero (XMR) on various exchanges. You can buy Monero in some
   countries directly on Monero.com with your credit or debit card. You can also
   download Cake Wallet and buy BTC or LTC, then easily convert to XMR.

 * How can I spend Monero?
   
   You can spend Monero at various merchants listed on our marketplace page, and
   you can easily spend Monero at over 150,000 merchant locations using Cake Pay
   in the Cake Wallet and Monero.com app!

 * Why should I use a noncustodial wallet?
   
   You lose many privacy benefits of Monero if you share your transaction
   details with a third party, such as an exchange. It's best to hold your
   Monero in your own noncustodial wallet, such as Cake Wallet or Monero.com.
   This way, only you have access to your funds and transaction history.

 * Why is Monero the gold standard in private digital payments?
   
   Monero has more private digital transactions than all other cryptocurrency
   projects combined. More people use Monero to transact than any other privacy
   coin. More people use Monero than any Bitcoin mixing service or Ethereum
   privacy-oriented smart contract. Because of its wide adoption and ease of
   use, Monero is the undisputed gold standard in private digital payments.

 * How can I get help with Monero?
   
   Cake Wallet and Monero.com offer free 24/7 support by e-mail and on Telegram.
   You can also ask for help on Reddit.
