Frequently asked questions : Monero | Torhoo darknet markets

Great FAQ, just wanted to give a huge shoutout to /u/Thotbot for all the work he's done making XMR easier to use for everyone. Donate to feather if you can!

I'm going to make sure this FAQ is added into the bible

Cheers for taking the time to pull out such step-up FAQ.
Now let's assume than everyone could give xmr an easy try without issue, also no more excuse to not jumping over xmr right now, leaving btc for goods behinds.

I use veryacrypt and windows for my monero. i run a full node and have my wallet files locked away in veryacrpt. maybe not as safe as tails but with moneros privacy i dont see a point really? Also use a paid for vpn so i suppose i put my trust in it. either way unless i become a vendor which i aint then this is a asafe set up for me and amkes things easier for purchasing

When I click recieve to try to transfer my Monero in from Exodus which is where I converted it. It shows primary address and shows 8 numners and letters then .... then 8 more. It won't show me the full address. So how can I retrieve the address to be able to put in Exodus? I should state I am using 2 different computers. One with Tails on it and the Monero wallet, the another with Exodus.

Great post

Thank you very much for your contribution!

This FAQ is great and absolutely necessary. Kudos.
On the "My vendor only accepts Bitcoin, what do I do?" section, I'd add a paragraph saying that if people really want to contribute to the project and everyone's privacy, then get in touch with your merchant/service provider and request them to accept Monero directly as payment. Ask the service provider to visit this community, the getmonero.org website and other communication channels if they need help with system integration.

Good list of exchanges https://kycnot.me

Our of curiosity do vendors an equivalent to bitcoin blending with Monero (XMR) ? Like will they take it from their wallet and use an equivalent of blender.io and send it back to themselves on a hardware wallet or exchange ?

This helped me

great post thanks

hey bro ! sorry for bothering !
but the link to install monero just went down !
could anyone help me with the article ?

I've been hearing about atomic swaps for a while, and recently have read that they have arrived. Is there a guide somewhere on how these work, how safe they are, and how to use them?

If there's no guide, where do you suggest I go to learn more?

Thanks for the FAQ really helpful

This is a amazing write up i learnt alot reading this . im currently doing a transaction of around 35 xmr and its at 119 confirmations and hasnt reached its destination yet.. how many confirmations do i need????

Been up all night and still dont know exactly what happen open a ticket talk went through some channels just a waiting game and Im buggin sooo...

For argument sake lets take my completely idiotic rooky green ass mistake of a hypothesis as truth rn. Lets say I accidentally sent payment from my non custodial XMR wallet to ven's BTC address. Where is that coin? is it retreivble? I would obviously like it back not even the $1000 its more the clean coin and rushed timeline but if not I'd like to stop beating a dead horse.. I know I'm not the only one to do this even though its dumb soo any1? Help? Please?

This is a perfect post, but unfortunately, many people may not bother to click through.
Because they're lazy. Because they want to get the answer straight away.

Thank you for sharing!

I assume buying monero via bank transfer on local monero is equivalent to buying it on a kyc exchange and so sending monero from that wallet is anonymous?

Thank /u/Thotbot for a great Q and A really helped with my failed transaction.
