Monero Full Guide (Wallet & Node & Mining & OpenAlias)

Monero is a cryptocurrency that relies on proof-of-work mining to achieve distributed consensus. Below you'll find some information and resources on how to begin using monero within the monero-wallet-gui, creating a node and mining monero and creating a individual OpenAlias address to your seed of choice.

OpenAlias

The Monero project created a simpler way to share your Monero public address. For example, our Monero.how donation address is:

4JUdGzvrMFDWrUUwY3toJATSeNwjn54LkCnKBPRzDuhzi5vSepHfUckJNxRL2gjkNrSqtCoRUrEDAgRwsQvVCjZbRx8NCvspxJMRJcG69H

but OpenAlias allows us to configure our domain so that people can donate to us simply by entering:

yourname@website.xyz

as the address to send to from a Monero wallet.

If you'd like to create your own OpenAlias address, you must own or control your own domain name. If you do go to your DNS Records and add the following txt Record to it, change `YOURNAME`, `YOURDESCRIPTION` and of course the recipient_address to your preferings. YOURNAME will changed into the OpenAlias domain = YOURNAME.yourdomain.xyz:

oa1:xmr recipient_address=4JUdGzvrMFDWrUUwY3toJATSeNwjn54LkCnKBPRzDuhzi5vSepHfUckJNxRL2gjkNrSqtCoRUrEDAgRwsQvVCjZbRx8NCvspxJMRJcG69H; recipient_name=YOURNAME Lastname; tx_description=YOURDESCRIPTION;
