Monero is a fully anonymous coin. I can make an article about it, but... there are many. So, because it can be mined with CPUs I will write about mining.
The tutorial begins... NOW
1 - Create a monero address
You can get core wallet at monero.org
2 - Download XMRig miner
Just download the latest version on their github, and unzip it.
It will probably be tagged as malware. It is normal, all miners are tagged as malwares.
3 - Configure miner
In config.json file, set "user" field to your address, password to "x", algo to "rx/0" and url to "pool.minexmr.com". If you doesn't understand, you can see the image.
tip : this pool has multiple geographic servers, to reduce lag :
- europe : pool.minexmr.com:4444
- france : fr.minexmr.com:4444
- germany : de.minexmr.com:4444
- singapore : sg.minexmr.com:4444
- canada (east) : ca.minexmr.com:4444
- us (west) : us-west.minexmr.com:4444
4 - Run the miner
Just run xmrig.exe and let it mine. You can reduce window without any problem.
information : It will load CPU very much, so fans will be noisy, and computer may be slow.
To see your stats and withdraw
To see how much you mined and withdraw, just go to MineXMR.com, to dashboard tab, and input your address.
You'll see your hashrate chart and a withdraw button.
I think that somebody will say "but there are other pools, why minexmr ???". I advised minexmr because minimum withdrawal is low, but it's the same way with any pool.
It's the end of this tutorial. Thanks for reading it to the end.
