About:
Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that uses ring signatures, ring confidential transactions, and stealth addresses to obfuscate transaction details. This formula provides the official command-line interface (CLI) wallet and the CPU-based mining daemon. It enables users to securely manage funds and participate in network consensus directly from the terminal.
Key Features:
  • Command-line wallet for secure fund management
  • CPU mining daemon (xmrig) for network participation
  • Privacy-centric cryptography (RingCT, stealth addresses)
  • Decentralized, peer-to-peer network protocol
Use Cases:
  • Running a full node and managing a private Monero wallet
  • Solo mining Monero using the CPU miner
  • Interacting with the blockchain via CLI scripts
Alternatives:
  • Feather Wallet – Provides a graphical user interface (GUI) for desktop, whereas Monero CLI is terminal-only.
  • Gupax – A GUI suite for mining and pool interaction, focusing on ease of use over CLI control.
