    How Do I Get Monero?

    +

    + There are a few ways. +

    +

    You can buy it from an exchange such as Kraken, TradeOgre, and LocalMonero. +

    +

    + You can also mine it if you have a fast enough computer. I wouldn't recommend buying a computer just for this unless you're really into that sort of thing. +

    +

    + You can also earn it by providing some sort of service or selling goods and merchandise. There are many plugins that allow you to run a web store that accepts Monero. +

    How Do I Run My Own Node?

    +

    + There are plenty of guides out there that explain in great detail how you can run a Monero node, so I will defer to those. This is my favorite resource to learn about setting up your own node: Run a Monero Node by Seth Simmons +

    Isn't Cryptocurrency for Criminals?

    No, but this is a common misconception.
