Mastering Monero

A guide through the seemingly complex world of Monero.
It includes:

  • A broad introduction to blockchains and the importance of privacy - ideal for non-technical users.
  • Discussion of Bitcoin’s shortcomings and specific solutions provided by Monero.
  • User stories (illustrating how Monero protects your privacy), analogies, examples, legal/ethical discussions, and code snippets illustrating key technical concepts.
  • Details of the Monero decentralized network, peer-to-peer architecture, transaction lifecycle, and security principles.
  • Introductions to technical foundations of Monero, intended for developers, engineers, software architects, and curious users.
  • New developments such as Kovri, Bulletproofs, Multisignature, Hardware Wallets, etc.
See Mastering Monero website for information.

Cheatsheets

The Salmon Series

Infographics dealing with Monero's inner workings. The name comes from employed colours, having semantic meanings (even if weak) but also a unifying function as a recurring theme, and resembling salmon browning (from raw to well-done) to the author's eyes :)

  • Monero Addresses Cheatsheet - Between the ‘big picture’ and the mathematical details, a single-page recap of various keys, addresses, scopes (private/public, spend/view, on-chain/off-chain, payer’s/payee’s) and their relations.
  • Rings Cheatsheet - From generic legacy signature to CLSAG, a visual-holic journey through Rings flavours, presenting their core properties step-by-step in a poster-size infographic.
  • RingCT Cheatsheet - The recipe of a delicious RingCT Type 5 transaction: one CLSAG every eleven UTXOs, Moneroj amounts to taste; thicken everything with Pedersen Commitments whose overall equilibrium will be evident to waiters as well, and protect last ones with a BulletProof glaze; serve on chosen Stealth Addresses and consume not before ten blocks later. Cheers!
  • ZK Basics Cheatsheet - A lightly theoretical interlude (hopefully still gentle, trying to stress concepts more than formalism and selecting the approached topics) to lay the foundations for Bulletproof and other future Zero-Knowledge-related features, if any.
