Transacting with Monero can be made easy. This page is designed to guide users in that process.
1. Learn
Monero is a secure, private, and untraceable cryptocurrency. The developers and community are committed to protecting these values. Learn more by reading the What is Monero page. The source code is also available for review and discussion.
2. Request Support
There is a large and supportive community that will assist if you experience any difficulty. See the Hangouts page for more information.
3. Generate a Wallet
A Monero wallet is required to secure your own funds. See the Downloads page for a listing of available wallets.
The easiest way to run a Monero node, without affecting your home bandwidth, is to purchase a VPS (Virtual Private Server). We strongly recommend InterServer.net using the 'MONERO' coupon code to get a discount over and above their already cheap $6/month VPS. Using this coupon code and/or our affiliate link will also assist in the ongoing funding of Monero development.
