-Pieter Wuille on Bulletproofs:
-
-Bulletproofs is a general technology to implement zero-knowledge proofs.
-
-Bitcoin does not use zero-knowledge proofs. There is no way you can just "plug in" Bulletproofs anywhere in Bitcoin.
-
-Perhaps you are talking about confidential transactions (CT). This is a technique to permit a public ledger that makes the amounts hidden while still permitting everyone to verify the balances adds up. If that sounds like magic, that's because it is.
-
-CT rely on zero-knowledge proofs. They could use Bulletproofs. They could also use other types of zero-knowledge proofs (there are several, zk-SNARKS is the well known, each with their own trade-offs). Certainly the invention of Bulletproofs made CT more accessible.
-
-However... CT is still very different from how Bitcoin works right now. There is no obvious way to integrate them. My best hope would be using something like an extension block, where you can have coins on the "legacy" side or coins on the confidential side - with explicit operations to move them between the two.
-
-However, that is far from simple, and AFAIK nobody is really working on it. Much as I love this technique and would be very excited to see it in Bitcoin, it's unrealistic to think that it will be usable anytime soon there.
-
-Every system must lack at least one of unconditional soundness and unconditional blindness. It's perfectly possible to build a system that lacks both.
-
-
-Bulletproofs are a general zero-knowledge proof technique. That means that they can be used to prove any statement over secret data without revealing that data.
-
-You could prove you know 2 numbers that add up to 7.
-
-You could prove that you know a string whose SHA256 hash is 16c28109a2719ebd4a123db11ff966f02d814354e3dc932449484f1c5a804af4, without revealing anything else about that string.
-
-They could be used instead of zk-SNARKs in Zero-Knowledge Contingent Payments (swapping money for solutions to a problem). These can be done without any changes to Bitcoin.
-
-You could (in theory, read on) use them to build a blockchain similar to ZCash (which heavily relies on zk-SNARKs for proving that their ledger makes sense), but without the trusted setup procedure or novel cryptography (Bulletproofs use very conservative security assumptions). Unfortunately, Bulletproof validation is much slower than zk-SNARK validation for complex problems, so it's not really comparable.
-
-I expect that the most interesting applications are things we haven't considered yet. They suddenly bring zero-knowledge proofs into scope for a lot of problems and protocols where it wasn't really reasonable to go through the effort of using one of the existing proof systems.
-
-++++
-
-I'm pretty sure that Monero is not unconditionally sound. Even if it is, after switching to Bulletproofs they won't be (Bulletproofs cannot be made unconditionally sound).
-
-Yes, with the old rangeproof construction there was an alternative that was unconditionally sound, but not unconditionally private.
-
-This is not possible with Bulletproofs (and theoretically impossible with anything with similar compactness; unconditionally sound proofs cannot be small).

-
-
-++++
-
-Practical zero-knowledge proofs have existed for a few years now, and ZKCPs are indeed an application of them.
-
-Bulletproofs are just a new type of zero-knowledge proof. Compared to zk-SNARKS, they're much more conservative in their security assumptions, and don't need a complicated setup procedure before proofs can be created. On the other hand, they're also larger and slower for complicated problsms. And they don't do anything that couldn't be done before - they're just more practical depending on your requirements.

-Pieter Wuille on CT:
-
-In a system that uses CT, if someone finds a break in the fundamental security of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), he can print money. Worse, because the amounts are all private, he can do so undetectably. That's an existential threat for a currency which has controlled inflation as prime goal.
-
-Such a break would be dangerous for Bitcoin (even without CT) regardless, as it relies on ECC for protecting against theft. However, Bitcoin can migrate to use a different signature scheme if necessary. It would be chaotic, but not necessarily pose an existential risk.
-
-There are people who agree with this perspective. It's a mathematical fact that any privacy system that hides amounts and is built on top of ECC will at least have one of the properties below:
-
-    An ECC break will permit printing money undetectaby.
-
-    An ECC break will permit deanonymizing amounts in the historical chain.
-
-In other words:
-
-    An ECC break means the currency can undetectably be inflated (going forward).
-
-    An ECC break means the ledger's history can retroactively be deanonymized (goin backward).
-
-So we are faced with a choice between those two regardless if we want better privacy. Some people believe the second is worse than the first, and choosing the first actually allows for more efficient technology. This is a choice that Zcash, Monero, Grin, all make. CT with Bulletproofs would do the same.
-
-However, regardless of your own opinion in this matter, Bitcoin's evolution is a large collaborative process, where such fundamental changes need buy-in from large parts of the ecosystem. My fear is that the question of giving up the ability to exactly audit the monetary supply is going to make it hard to make CT acceptable.
-
-Furthermore, there are other challenges. CT makes transactions larger, slower to verify, and poses a very significant engineering challenge to incorporate into Bitcoin without breaking backward compatibility.
-
-++++
-
-> Also, is there any possible system that can have unconditional soundness and privacy at the same time (something other than ECC obviously)?
-
-No, that's mathematically impossible.

-title: Stealth Address
----
-# Stealth Address
-
-## Hides recipient
-
-Stealth address is a privacy technique to hide the recipient.
-
-Even though blockchain is public, observer has no way to link the payment to the recipient.
-
-Payments simply do **not** go to recipient address. Instead payments go to one-time "stealth" addresses.     
-
-## One-time, per payment 
-
-Stealth address is generated for each individual payment and must not be reused.
-
-In Bitcoin, should stealth address be reused, the payments are linked.
-Observer would learn these payments were to the same person.
-This wouldn't be end of the world though, as most users would link the outputs anyway when spending from the wallet.  
-
-In Monero, stealth address reuse leads to lose of funds.
-If sender re-uses stealth address, then recipient will only be able to claim one of the payments.
-See [key image](/cryptography/asymmetric/key-image) to learn why this is the case.
-Practically, to re-use stealth address, sender would have to manually craft a malicious transaction.
-Recipient would simply not acknowledge receiving the payment, as if sender never paid.
-
-## Wallet level feature
-
-Stealth addresses are not part of the consensus layer. For transaction to be valid,
-it does not matter how the key pairs were generated.
-
-Stealth address is non-interactive protocol between sender and recipient.
-
-## Elliptic curves magic properties
-
-Before going further understand the following properties of elliptic curves.
-
-Once you internalize these critical properties,
-you will be able to easily come up with a stealth address scheme yourself. 
-
-### It is possible to establish a shared secret without sharing a secret
-
-Two parties can come up with the same secret number w/o sending anything except their public keys.
-
-Specifically, having 2 unrelated key pairs, you can exchange public keys, and then each party can independently calculate the same secret number, simply by multiplying own private key with other party's public key:
-
-`s = aB = bA`, where:
-
-* s - the secret (256-bit number)
-* a - Alice private key
-* A - Alice public key
-* b - Bob private key
-* B - Bob public key
-
-### A new key pair can be derived by multiplying both keys 
-
-Having a key pair, you can derive a new key pair, simply by multiplying both keys by an integer.
-
-Surprisingly, the new key pair will be valid, i.e. the private key will match the public key.  
-
-## Stealth address protocol
-
-1. Sender Alice generates a new key pair. Note this is entirely local to the sender. 
-
-* a - private key
-* A - public key
-
-2. Sender Alice gets receiver's (Bob) public key from his address, `B`.
-
-3. Sender calculates the secret:
-
-`s = rB`

This way any 2 participants together have all 3 private keys required to create the private spend key. Multi-signing is a wallet-level feature.

Be sceptical on accuracy. Note This article is only about the underlying curve. Public key derivation and signing algorithm will be treated separately. Monero employs edwards25519 elliptic curve as a basis for its key pair generation. The curve comes from the Ed25519 signature scheme. While Monero takes the curve unchanged, it does not exactly follow rest of the Ed25519. The edwards25519 curve is birationally equivalent to Curve25519 . Definition \u00b6 This is the standard edwards25519 curve definition, no Monero specific stuff here, except the naming convention. The convention comes from the CryptoNote whitepaper and is widely used in Monero literature. Curve equation \u00b6 \u2212x^2 + y^2 = 1 \u2212 (121665/121666) * x^2 * y^2 Note: curve is in two dimensions (nothing fancy, like all the curves is high school) curve is mirrored below y axis due to y^2 part of the equation (not a polynomial) Base point: G \u00b6 The base point is a specific point on the curve. It is used as a basis for further calculations. It is an arbitrary choice by the curve authors, just to standardize the scheme. Note that it is enough to specify the y value and the sign of the x value. That's because the specific x can be calculated from the curve equation. G = (x, 4/5) # take the point with the positive x # The hex representation of the base point 5866666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666 Prime order of the base point: l \u00b6 In layment terms, the \"canvas\" where the curve is drawn is assumed to have a finite \"resolution\", so point coordinates must \"wrap around\" at some point. This is achieved by modulo the l value (lowercase L).

It is the most reliable and most complete wallet for Monero. Use stagenet for learning. Overview \u00b6 Command line wallet \u00b6 The \"official\" command line wallet for Monero. Available for Linux, macOS and Windows. Wallet uses your private keys to understand your total balance, transactions history, and to facilitate creating transactions. However, wallet does not store the blockchain and does not directly participate in the p2p network. The CLI wallet is the most reliable and most feature complete wallet for Monero. Depends on the full node \u00b6 Wallet connects to a full node to scan the blockchain for your transaction outputs and to send your transactions out to the network. The full node can be either local (same computer) or remote. Normally, you run the full node on the same computer as wallet (or within your home network). Connection happens over HTTP and uses this API . Any transaction leaving the wallet is already blinded by all Monero privacy features. This means plain text HTTP communication isn't an issue on its own even if you connect to a remote node. However, connecting to a remote node has other nuanced trade-offs, which is a topic for a separate article. Syntax \u00b6 ./monero-wallet-cli [options] [command] Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet Running \u00b6 Go to directory where you unpacked Monero. Run the full node and wait until it syncs up with the network (may take up to a few days): ./monerod --stagenet In a separate terminal window, run the wallet: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-new-wallet MoneroExampleStagenetWallet Options \u00b6 Help and version \u00b6 Option Description --help Enlist available options. --version Show monero-wallet-cli version to stdout. Example: Monero 'Boron Butterfly' (v0.14.0.0-release) Pick network \u00b6 Option Description (missing) By default wallet assumes mainnet . --stagenet Run on stagenet . Remember to run your daemon with --stagenet as well. --testnet Run on testnet . Remember to run your daemon with --testnet as well. Logging \u00b6 Option Description --log-file <arg> Full path to the log file. --log-level <arg> 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. --max-log-file-size <arg> Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monero creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size 0 to prevent monero from managing the log files. --max-log-files <arg> Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed. In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. Full node connection \u00b6 Wallet depends on a full node for all non-local operations. The following options define how to connect to monerod : Option Description --daemon-address <arg> Use monerod instance at <host>:<port> . Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --daemon-address monero-stagenet.exan.tech:38081 --stagenet --daemon-host <arg> Use monerod instance at host <arg> instead of localhost. --daemon-port <arg> Use monerod instance at port <arg> instead of 18081. --daemon-login <arg> Specify username[:password] for monerod RPC API. It is based on HTTP Basic Auth. Mind that connections are by default unencrypted. Authentication only makes sense if you establish a secure connection (maybe via Tor, or SSH tunneling, or reverse proxy w/ TLS). --trusted-daemon Enable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for localhost connection. The trust in this context concerns preserving your privacy. Only use this flag if you do control monerod . Trusted daemon allows for commands like rescan_spent , start_mining , import_key_images and behaviors like not warning about potential attack on transient problems with transaction sending. --untrusted-daemon Disable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for a non-localhost connections. See --trusted-daemon for more details. --do-not-relay The newly created transaction will not be relayed to the Monero network. Instead it will be dumped to a file in a raw hexadecimal format. Useful if you want to push the transaction through a gateway like https://xmrchain.net/rawtx . This may be easier to use over Tor than Monero wallet. --allow-mismatched-daemon-version Allow communicating with monerod that uses a different RPC version. Create new wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-new-wallet <arg> Create a new Monero wallet and save it to <arg> file. You will be asked for a password. The password is used to encrypt the wallet file but it is unrelated to your master spend key or mnemonic seed. Generate a very strong password with your password manager (~256 bits of entropy). Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-new-wallet $HOME/.bitmonero/stagenet/wallets/MoneroExampleStagenetWallet --kdf-rounds <arg> Concerns encrypting the wallet file. The wallet file is encrypted with ChaCha stream cipher. The encryption key is derived from the user supplied password by hashing the password with CryptoNight. This option defines how many times the CryptoNight hashing will be applied. The default is 1 round of hashing. Note this is unrelated to spend key generation. The more rounds the longer you will wait to open the wallet or send transaction. But also the attacker will have it harder to brute force your wallet password. Note: You will have to remember and provide the same kdf-rounds on every wallet access! Recommendation: Do not change the default value. Instead generate a very strong wallet password with your password manager (256 bits of entropy). Open existing wallet \u00b6 Option Description --wallet-file <arg> Open existing wallet. Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --wallet-file $HOME/.bitmonero/stagenet/wallets/MoneroExampleStagenetWallet This is only for wallet files generated with monero-wallet-cli , monero-wallet-gui , or monero-wallet-rpc tools. If you have other type of wallet then see importing options. --password <arg> Provide wallet password as a parameter instead of interactively. Remember to escape/quote as needed. Not recommended because the password will remain in your command history and will also be visible in the process table. For automation prefer --password-file . The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . --password-file <arg> Provide password as a file in stead of interactively. Trailing \\n are discarded when reading the password file. Prefer this over --password if you automate wallet access. Make sure the password file is meaningfully separated from the wallet file. Otherwise it provides no security benefit. The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . Restore wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-from-device <arg> Restore/generate a special wallet to work with a hardware device like Ledger or Trezor and save it to <arg> file. Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-from-device MoneroExampleDeviceWallet --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 This is a one-time action. Next time you simply open the wallet . By default the command expects Ledger hardware connected. For Trezor hardware add --hw-device Trezor (expected ~May 2019). It will take up to 25 minutes with default settings. This is because hardware devices are slow to pre-generate subaddresses. To mitigate use low --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 . The local wallet will not have private spend key and will not be able to spend on its own. It serves as a user interface and a bridge for low-power hardware devices. Transaction signing with a private spend key always happens on the hardware device. See the complete guide to hardware wallet setup . --generate-from-view-key <arg> Restore a view-only version of the wallet to track incoming transactions and save it to <arg> file. The wallet is created based on a secret view key and standard address . The secret view key is meant to be pasted as hexadecimal. --generate-from-spend-key <arg> Restore a wallet from secret spend key and save it to <arg> file. The secret spend key is meant to be pasted as hexadecimal. --restore-deterministic-wallet Restore a wallet from secret mnemonic seed . Use this to restore from your 25 words backup. You will be asked for a password to encrypt the wallet file (once restored). Note this is not a passphrase to mnemonic seed. Mnemonic seeds generated by Monero official wallets are naked. --restore-height <arg> Only scan for transactions later than specific blockchain height. The default is 0 . Raising the value makes wallet restoration radically faster . The optimal value should match the day you originally created the wallet (but cannot be later). The mapping between the block height and date/time is available on block explorers like https://xmrchain.net . For instance, if you created the wallet in 2019+ use 1730000 . Multisig wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-from-multisig-keys <arg> Create a standard wallet from multisig keys. This is useful to combine all multisig secret keys back into the standard wallet (when you no longer need the multisig). The wallet will then have control of the funds. It only supports providing all secret keys even if the multisig scheme allowed for less (only N/N not N/M ). --restore-multisig-wallet Restore a multisig wallet from secret seed that was earlier exported with the seed interactive command. This only restores your part of the wallet. Other multisig participants will still be necessary to sign the transaction. Config file \u00b6 Option Description --config-file <arg> Full path to the configuration file . Note this should be a separate config than monerod uses because these tools accept different set of options. Performance \u00b6 Option Description --subaddress-lookahead <arg> Accepts m:n , by default 50:200 . The first value is the number of accounts and the second value is the number of subaddresses per account. The wallet will not check for payments to subaddresses further than n away from the last received payment. This can happen if you generated unique subaddresses for n clients in a row but none of them paid. On the other hand the more subaddresses you set to look ahead, the longer it takes to create your wallet, because they must be pre-computed. This is normally not a concern, except for hardware wallets. On the Ledger the default value of 50:200 can take over 20 minutes (one time on wallet creation)! --max-concurrency <arg> Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. Internationalization \u00b6 Option Description --mnemonic-language <arg> Language for mnemonic seed words. One of english , english_old , esperanto , french , german , italian , japanese , lojban , portuguese , russian , spanish . It might be a good idea to stick to default English which is by far the most popular and well tested. It also avoids potential non-ASCII characters pitfalls or bugs. --use-english-language-names If your display freezes, exit blind with ^C, then run again with --use-english-language-names . This can happen when Monero prompts for a language displaying language names in their natives alphabets. Legacy \u00b6 These options are either legacy or rarely useful. Option Description --non-deterministic Generate legacy non-deterministic wallet. The view key will not be derived from the spend key. You would also have to backup the .keys. To restore non-deterministic wallet (standard address) use --generate-from-keys . To restore fully you will need the .keys file. --generate-from-keys <arg> Restore legacy non-deterministic wallet by providing both spend and view keys and the standard address. --shared-ringdb-dir <arg> Set shared ring database path. No longer worthwhile . --create-address-file Has no effect. The *.address.txt file is created regardless of this option. --electrum-seed <arg> Provide mnemonic seed as a commandline option for --restore-deterministic-wallet instead of interactively. This is not recommended b/c the seed will be saved in your command history and also visible in the process list. --generate-from-json <arg> You would run monero-wallet-rpc to use this option. It seems exposed in monero-wallet-cli by accident. --tx-notify <arg> You would run monero-wallet-rpc to use this option. It seems exposed in monero-wallet-cli by accident. Defaults \u00b6 Wallet files are created and seek in current directory. This is rarely what you want. Use --wallet-file and similar options to control this. Log files are created in the same directory as monero-wallet-cli binary. Use --log-file to specify the location. Commands \u00b6 Commands are used interactively in the monero-wallet-cli prompt. You can also run a one-off command by providing it as a commandline parameter. This is rarely useful though. For automation prefer monero-wallet-rpc . The CLI wallet has built-in help for individual commands - we will not attempt to reproduce that. Instead we focus on grouping commands so you can quickly find what you are looking for.

It is based on HTTP Basic Auth. Mind that connections are by default unencrypted. Authentication only makes sense if you establish a secure connection (maybe via Tor, or SSH tunneling, or reverse proxy w/ TLS). --trusted-daemon Enable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for localhost connection. The trust in this context concerns preserving your privacy. Only use this flag if you do control monerod . Trusted daemon allows for commands like rescan_spent , start_mining , import_key_images and behaviors like not warning about potential attack on transient problems with transaction sending. --untrusted-daemon Disable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted.

The wallet file is encrypted with ChaCha stream cipher. The encryption key is derived from the user supplied password by hashing the password with CryptoNight. This option defines how many times the CryptoNight hashing will be applied. The default is 1 round of hashing. Note this is unrelated to spend key generation. The more rounds the longer you will wait to open the wallet or send transaction. But also the attacker will have it harder to brute force your wallet password.

The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . --password-file <arg> Provide password as a file in stead of interactively.

Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-from-device MoneroExampleDeviceWallet --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 This is a one-time action. Next time you simply open the wallet . By default the command expects Ledger hardware connected. For Trezor hardware add --hw-device Trezor (expected ~May 2019). It will take up to 25 minutes with default settings. This is because hardware devices are slow to pre-generate subaddresses. To mitigate use low --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 . The local wallet will not have private spend key and will not be able to spend on its own. It serves as a user interface and a bridge for low-power hardware devices. Transaction signing with a private spend key always happens on the hardware device. See the complete guide to hardware wallet setup . --generate-from-view-key <arg> Restore a view-only version of the wallet to track incoming transactions and save it to <arg> file.

You will be asked for a password to encrypt the wallet file (once restored). Note this is not a passphrase to mnemonic seed. Mnemonic seeds generated by Monero official wallets are naked. --restore-height <arg> Only scan for transactions later than specific blockchain height. The default is 0 . Raising the value makes wallet restoration radically faster . The optimal value should match the day you originally created the wallet (but cannot be later).

The wallet will not check for payments to subaddresses further than n away from the last received payment. This can happen if you generated unique subaddresses for n clients in a row but none of them paid. On the other hand the more subaddresses you set to look ahead, the longer it takes to create your wallet, because they must be pre-computed. This is normally not a concern, except for hardware wallets. On the Ledger the default value of 50:200 can take over 20 minutes (one time on wallet creation)! --max-concurrency <arg> Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs.

It downloads and validates the blockchain from the p2p network. Not aware of your private keys \u00b6 monerod is entirely decoupled from your wallet. monerod does not access your private keys - it is not aware of your transactions and balance. This allows you to run monerod on a separate computer or in the cloud. In fact, you can connect to a remote monerod instance provided by a semi-trusted 3rd party. Such 3rd party will not be able to steal your funds. This is very handy for learning and experimentation. However, there are privacy and reliability implications to using a remote, untrusted node. For any real business you should be running your own full node . Syntax \u00b6 ./monerod [options] [command] Options define how the daemon should be working. Their names follow the --option-name pattern. Commands give access to specific services provided by the daemon. Commands are executed against the running daemon. Their names follow the command_name pattern. Running \u00b6 Go to directory where you unpacked Monero. The stagenet is what your should be using for learning and experimentation. ./monerod --stagenet --detach # run as a daemon in background tail -f ~/.bitmonero/stagenet/bitmonero.log # watch the logs ./monerod --stagenet exit # ask daemon to exit gracefully The mainnnet is when you want to deal with the real XMR. ./monerod --detach # run as a daemon in background tail -f ~/.bitmonero/bitmonero.log # watch the logs ./monerod exit # ask daemon to exit gracefully Options \u00b6 Options define how the daemon should be working. Their names follow the --option-name pattern. The following groups are only to make reference easier to follow. The daemon itself does not group options in any way. Help and version \u00b6 Option Description --help Enlist available options. --version Show monerod version to stdout. Example output: Monero 'Oxygen Orion' (v0.17.1.8-release) --os-version Show build timestamp and target operating system. Example output: OS: Linux #65-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 12:01:51 UTC 2020 5.4.0-59-generic . --check-updates One of: disabled | notify | download (= notify by default). Check for new versions of Monero and optionally download it. You should probably prefer your OS package manager to do the update, if possible. There is also unimplemented update option shown by the help system. Pick network \u00b6 Option Description (missing) By default monerod assumes mainnet . --stagenet Run on stagenet . Remember to run your wallet with --stagenet as well. --testnet Run on testnet . Remember to run your wallet with --testnet as well. Logging \u00b6 Option Description --log-file Full path to the log file. Example (mind file permissions): ./monerod --log-file=/var/log/monero/mainnet/monerod.log --log-level 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. Temporarily changing to 1 allows for much better understanding of how the full node operates. Example: ./monerod --log-level=1 --max-log-file-size Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monerod creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size=0 to prevent monerod from managing the log files. --max-log-files Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed. In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. Server \u00b6 monerod defaults are adjusted for running it occasionally on the same computer as your Monero wallet. The following options will be helpful if you intend to have an always running node \u2014 most likely on a remote server or your own separate PC. Option Description --config-file Full path to the configuration file . By default monerod looks for bitmonero.conf in Monero data directory . --data-dir Full path to data directory. This is where the blockchain, log files, and p2p network memory are stored. For defaults and details see data directory . --pidfile Full path to the PID file. Works only with --detach . Example: ./monerod --detach --pidfile=/run/monero/monerod.pid --detach Go to background (decouple from the terminal). This is useful for long-running / server scenarios. Typically, you will also want to manage monerod daemon with systemd or similar. By default monerod runs in a foreground. --non-interactive Do not require tty in a foreground mode. Helpful when running in a container. By default monerod runs in a foreground and opens stdin for reading. This breaks containerization because no tty gets assigned and monerod process crashes. You can make it run in a background with --detach but this is inconvenient in a containerized environment because the canonical usage is that the container waits on the main process to exist (forking makes things more complicated). --no-zmq Disable ZMQ RPC server. You should use this option to limit attack surface and number of unnecessarily open ports (the ZMQ server is unfinished thing and you are unlikely to ever use it). --no-igd Disable UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). Add this option to improve security if you are not behind a NAT (you can bind directly to public IP or you run through Tor). --max-txpool-weight Set maximum transactions pool size in bytes. By default 648000000 (~618MB). These are transactions pending for confirmations (not included in any block). --enforce-dns-checkpointing The emergency checkpoints set by MoneroPulse operators will be enforced. It is probably a good idea to set enforcing for unattended nodes. If encountered block hash does not match corresponding checkpoint, the local blockchain will be rolled back a few blocks, effectively blocking following what MoneroPulse operators consider invalid fork. The log entry will be produced: ERROR Local blockchain failed to pass a checkpoint, rolling back! Eventually, the alternative (\"fixed\") fork will get heavier and the node will follow it, leaving the \"invalid\" fork behind. By default checkpointing only notifies about discrepancy by producing the following log entry: ERROR WARNING: local blockchain failed to pass a MoneroPulse checkpoint, and you could be on a fork. You should either sync up from scratch, OR download a fresh blockchain bootstrap, OR enable checkpoint enforcing with the --enforce-dns-checkpointing command-line option . Reference: source code . --disable-dns-checkpoints The MoneroPulse checkpoints set by core developers will be discarded. The checkpoints are apparently still fetched though. P2P network \u00b6 The following options define how your node participates in Monero peer-to-peer network. This is for node-to-node communication. The following options do not affect wallet-to-node interface. The node and peer words are used interchangeably. Option Description --p2p-bind-ip IPv4 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value 0.0.0.0 binds to all network interfaces. This is typically what you want. You must change this if you want to constrain binding, for example to force working through Tor via torsocks: DNS_PUBLIC=tcp://1.1.1.1 TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1 torsocks ./monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1\u200a --no-igd\u200a --hide-my-port --p2p-bind-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections. Defaults to 18080 for mainnet, 28080 for testnet, and 38080 for stagenet. You normally wouldn't change that. This is helpful to run several nodes on your machine to simulate private Monero p2p network (likely using private Testnet). Example: ./monerod --p2p-bind-port=48080 --p2p-external-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections on your router. Relevant if you are behind a NAT and still want to accept incoming connections. You must then set this to relevant port on your router. This is to let monerod know what to advertise on the network. Default is 0 . --p2p-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for p2p (disabled by default). --p2p-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value :: binds to all network interfaces. --p2p-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for p2p. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --igd Set UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). One of: disabled | enabled | delayed (= delayed by default). Relevant if you are behind NAT and want to accept incoming P2P network connections. The delayed value means it will wait for incoming connections in hope UPnP may not be necessary. After a while w/o incoming connections found it will attempt to map ports with UPnP. If you know you need UPnP change it to enabled to fast track the process. --hide-my-port monerod will still open and listen on the p2p port. However, it will not announce itself as a peer list candidate. Technically, it will return port 0 in a response to p2p handshake ( node_data.my_port = 0 in get_local_node_data function). In effect nodes you connect to won't spread your IP to other nodes. To sum up, it is not really hiding, it is more like \"do not advertise\". --seed-node Connect to a node to retrieve other nodes' addresses, and disconnect. If not specified, monerod will use hardcoded seed nodes on the first run, and peers cached on disk on subsequent runs. --add-peer Manually add node to local peer list, host:port . Syntax supports IP addresses, domain names, onion and i2p hosts. --add-priority-node Specify list of nodes to connect to and then attempt to keep the connection open. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-priority-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-priority-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --add-exclusive-node Specify list of nodes to connect to only. If this option is given the options --add-priority-node and --seed-node are ignored. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-exclusive-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-exclusive-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --out-peers Set max number of outgoing connections to other nodes. By default 12. Value -1 represents the code default. --in-peers Set max number of incoming connections (nodes actively connecting to you). By default unlimited. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-up Set outgoing data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 2048 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-down Set incoming data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 8192 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate Set the same limit value for incoming and outgoing data transfer. By default ( -1 ) the individual up/down default limits will be used. It is better to use --limit-rate-up and --limit-rate-down instead to avoid confusion. --offline Do not listen for peers, nor connect to any. Useful for working with a local, archival blockchain. --allow-local-ip Allow adding local IP to peer list. Useful mostly for debug purposes when you may want to have multiple nodes on a single machine. Tor/I2P \u00b6 This is experimental. It may be best to start with this guide . Option Description --tx-proxy Send out your local transactions through SOCKS5 proxy (Tor or I2P). Format: <network-type>,<socks-ip:port>[,max_connections][,disable_noise] Example: ./monerod --tx-proxy \"tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,16\" This was introduced to make publishing transactions over Tor easier (no need for torsocks) while allowing clearnet for blocks at the same time (while torsocks affected everything). Adding ,disable_noise disables Dandelion++ (will speed up tx broadcast but is otherwise not recommended). Note that forwarded transactions (those not originating from connected wallet) will still be relayed over clearnet. Requires multiple --add-peer to manually add onion-enabled p2p seed nodes - see Tor onion seed nodes for Monero P2P network . See this guide and commit . --anonymous-inbound Allow anonymous incoming connections to your onionized P2P interface. Format: <hidden-service-address>,<[bind-ip:]port>[,max_connections] Example: ./monerod --anonymous-inbound \"rveahdfho7wo4b2m.onion:18083,127.0.0.1:18083,100\" . Obviously, you first need to setup the hidden service in your Tor config. See the guide . --pad-transactions Pad relayed transactions to next 1024 bytes to help defend against traffic volume analysis. This only makes sense if you are behind Tor or I2P. See commit . Node RPC API \u00b6 monerod node offers powerful API. It serves 3 purposes: provides network data (stats, blocks, transactions, ...) provides local node information (peer list, hash rate if mining, ...) provides interface for wallets (send transactions, ...) This API is typically referred to as \"RPC\" because it is mostly based on JSON/RPC standard. The following options define how the API behaves. Option Description --public-node Advertise to other users they can use this node as a remote one for connecting their wallets. Requires --restricted-rpc , --rpc-bind-ip and --confirm-external-bind . Without --public-node the node can still be public (assuming other relevant options are set) but won't be advertised as such on the P2P network. This option will allow wallets to auto-discover public nodes (instead of requiring user to manually find one). --rpc-bind-ip IP to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 because API gives full administrative capabilities over the node. Set it to 0.0.0.0 to listen on all interfaces - but only in connection with one of *-restricted-* options and --confirm-external-bind . --rpc-bind-port TCP port to listen on. By default 18081 (mainnet), 28081 (testnet), 38081 (stagenet). --rpc-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 to listen on. By default ::1 (localhost). All remarks for --rpc-bind-ip are applicable here as well. --rpc-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for RPC server (disabled by default). --rpc-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for RPC. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --rpc-restricted-bind-ip IP to listen on with the limited version of API. The limited API can be made public to create an Open Node. --rpc-restricted-bind-port TCP port to listen on with the limited version of API. To be used in combination with `--rpc-restricted-bind-port . --confirm-external-bind Confirm you consciously set --rpc-bind-ip to non-localhost IP and you understand the consequences. --restricted-rpc Restrict API to view only commands and do not return privacy sensitive data. Note this does not make sense with --rpc-restricted-bind-port because you would end up with two restricted APIs. --rpc-ssl Enable TLS on RPC connections. One of: enabled | disabled | autodetect ( =autodetect by default). You should enable this if you connect a remote wallet. --rpc-ssl-private-key Path to server's private key in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-certificate Path to server's certificate in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-allowed-fingerprints List of certificate fingerprints to accept. This is a way to authenticate clients. --rpc-ssl-allow-any-cert Allow any certificate of connecting client. --rpc-ssl-ca-certificates Path to file containing concatenated PEM format certificate(s) to replace system CA(s). --rpc-ssl-allow-chained Allow user chained certificates. This is only applicable if user has a \"real\" CA issued certificate. --rpc-login Specify username[:password] required to connect to API. --rpc-access-control-origins Specify a comma separated list of origins to allow cross origin resource sharing. This is useful if you want to use monerod API directly from a web browser via JavaScript (say in a pure-fronted web appp scenario). With this option monerod will put proper HTTP CORS headers to its responses. You will also need to set --rpc-login if you use this option. Normally though, the API is used by backend app and this option isn't necessary. Accepting Monero \u00b6 These are network notifications offered by monerod . There are also wallet notifications like --tx-notify offered by monero-wallet-rpc here . Option Description --block-notify <arg> Run a program for each new block. The <arg> must be a full path . If the <arg> contains %s it will be replaced by the block hash. Example: ./monerod --block-notify=\"/usr/bin/echo %s\" Block notifications are good for immediate reaction. However, you should always assume you will miss some block notifications and you should independently poll the API to cover this up. Mind blockchain reorganizations. Block notifications can revert to same and past heights. Small reorganizations are natural and happen every day. --block-rate-notify <arg> Run a program when the number of blocks received in the recent past deviates significantly from the expectation. The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %t , %b , %e symbols to interpolate: %t : the number of minutes in the observation window %b : the number of blocks observed in that window %e : the ideal number of blocks expected in that window The option will let you know if the network hash rate drops by a lot. This may be indicative of a large section of the network miners moving off to mine a private chain, to be later released to the network. Note that if this event triggers, it is not incontrovertible proof that this is happening. It might just be chance. The longer the window (the %t parameter), and the larger the distance between actual and expected number of blocks, the more indicative it is of a possible chain reorg double-spend attack being prepared. Recommendation: unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, do not act on this data. It is hard to calibrate and easy to misinterpret. If this is a real attack, it will target high-liquidity entities and not small merchants. --reorg-notify <arg> Run a program when reorganization happens (ie, at least one block is removed from the top of the blockchain). The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %s , %h , %n symbols to interpolate: %s : the height at which the split occurs %h : the height of the new blockchain %d : the number of blocks discarded from the old chain %n : the number of blocks being added The option will let you know when a block is removed from the chain to be replaced by other blocks. This happens when a 51% attack occurs, but small reorgs also happen in the normal course of things. The %d parameter will be set to the number of blocks discarded from the old chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, that payment might have been cancelled). The %n parameter wil be set to the number of blocks in the new chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, any incoming payment in the first block will be automatically acted upon by your platform). Recommendation : unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, you do not need to bother with this option. Simply account for reorganizations by requiring at least 10 confirmations before shipping valuable goods. Performance \u00b6 These are advanced options that allow you to optimize performance of your monerod node, sometimes at the expense of reliability. Option Description --prune-blockchain Pruning saves 2/3 of disk space w/o degrading functionality. For maximum effect this should be used already on the first sync . If you add this option later the past data will only be pruned logically w/o shrinking the file size and the gain will be delayed. If you already have unpruned blockchain, see the monero-blockchain-prune tool. The drawback is that you will contribute less to Monero P2P network in terms of helping new nodes to sync up (up to 1/8 of normal contribution). You will still be useful regarding relaying new transactions and blocks though. --sync-pruned-blocks Accept pruned blocks instead of pruning yourself. It should save network transfer when used with --prune-blockchain . See the commit and comments . --db-sync-mode Specify sync option, using format: [safe|fast|fastest]:[sync|async]:[<nblocks_per_sync>[blocks]|<nbytes_per_sync>[bytes]] The default is fast:async:250000000bytes . The fast:async:* can corrupt blockchain database in case of a system crash. It should not corrupt if just monerod crashes. If you are concerned with system crashes use safe:sync . --max-concurrency Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. --prep-blocks-threads Max number of threads to use when computing block hashes (PoW) in groups. Defaults to 4. Decrease this if you don't want monerod hog your computer when syncing. --fast-block-sync Sync up most of the way by using embedded, \"known\" block hashes. Pass 1 to turn on and 0 to turn off. This is on ( 1 ) by default. Normally, for every block the full node must calculate the block hash to verify miner's proof of work. Because the CryptoNight PoW used in Monero is very expensive (even for verification), monerod offers skipping these calculations for old blocks. In other words, it's a mechanism to trust monerod binary regarding old blocks' PoW validity, to sync up faster. --block-sync-size How many blocks are processed in a single batch during chain synchronization. By default this is 20 blocks for newer history and 100 blocks for older history (\"pre v4\"). Default behavior is represented by value 0 . Intuitively, the more resources you have, the bigger batch size you may want to try out. Example: ./monerod --block-sync-size=500 --bootstrap-daemon-address The host:port of a \"bootstrap\" remote open node that the connected wallets can use while this node is still not fully synced. Example: ./monerod --bootstrap-daemon-address=opennode.xmr-tw.org:18089 . The node will forward selected RPC calls to the bootstrap node. The wallet will handle this automatically and transparently. Obviously, such bootstraping phase has privacy implications similar to directly using a remote node. --bootstrap-daemon-login Specify username:password for the bootstrap daemon login (if required). This considers the RPC interface used by the wallet. Normally, open nodes do not require any credentials. --no-sync Do not sync up. Continue using bootstrap daemon instead (if set). See commit . Mining \u00b6 The following options configure solo mining using CPU with the standard software stack monerod . This is mostly useful for: generating your stagenet or testnet coins experimentation and learning if you have super cheap access to vast CPU resources Be advised though that real mining happens in pools and with high-end GPU-s instead of CPU-s. Option Description --start-mining Specify wallet address to mining for. This must be a standard address ! It can be neither a subaddres nor integrated address. --mining-threads Specify mining threads count. By default ony one thread will be used. For best results, set it to number of your physical cores. --extra-messages-file Specify file for extra messages to include into coinbase transactions. --bg-mining-enable Enable unobtrusive mining. In this mode mining will use a small percentage of your system resources to never noticeably slow down your computer. This is intended to encourage people to mine to improve decentralization. That being said chances of finding a block are diminishingly small with solo CPU mining, and even lesser with its unobtrusive version. You can tweak the unobtrusivness / power trade-offs with the further --bg-* options below. --bg-mining-ignore-battery If true, assumes plugged in when unable to query system power status. --bg-mining-min-idle-interval Specify min lookback interval in seconds for determining idle state. --bg-mining-idle-threshold Specify minimum avg idle percentage over lookback interval. --bg-mining-miner-target Specify maximum percentage cpu use by miner(s). Testing Monero itself \u00b6 These options are useful for Monero project developers and testers. Normal users shouldn't be concerned with these. Option Description --keep-alt-blocks Keep alternative blocks on restart. May help with researching reorgs etc. Commit . Research project by noncesense research lab . --test-drop-download For net tests: in download, discard ALL blocks instead checking/saving them (very fast). --test-drop-download-height Like test-drop-download but discards only after around certain height. By default 0 . --regtest Run in a regression testing mode. --keep-fakechain Don't delete any existing database when in fakechain mode. --fixed-difficulty Fixed difficulty used for testing. By default 0 . --test-dbg-lock-sleep Sleep time in ms, defaults to 0 (off), used to debug before/after locking mutex. Values 100 to 1000 are good for tests. --save-graph Save data for dr Monero. Legacy \u00b6 These options should no longer be necessary. They are still present in monerod for backwards compatibility. Option Description --ban-list Specify ban list file, one IP address per line. This was introduced as an emergency measure to deal with large DDoS attacks on Monero p2p network in Dec 2020 / Jan 2021. Example: ./monerod --ban-list=block_tor.txt . Here is the popular block_tor.txt file. It is not recommended to statically ban any IP addresses unless you absolutely need to. Banning IPs often excludes the most vulnerable users who are forced to operate entirely behind Tor or other anonymity networks. --enable-dns-blocklist Similar to --ban-list but instead of a static file uses dynamic IP blocklist available as DNS TXT entries. The DNS blocklist is centrally managed by Monero contributors. It is not recommended unless in emergency situations. --fluffy-blocks Relay compact blocks. Default. Compact block is just a header and a list of transaction IDs. --no-fluffy-blocks Relay classic full blocks. Classic block contains all transactions. --show-time-stats Official docs say \"Show time-stats when processing blocks/txs and disk synchronization\" but it does not seem to produce any output during usual blockchain synchronization. --zmq-rpc-bind-ip IP for ZMQ RPC server to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 . This is not yet widely used as ZMQ interface currently does not provide meaningful advantage over classic JSON-RPC interface. --zmq-rpc-bind-port Port for ZMQ RPC server to listen on. By default 18082 for mainnet, 38082 for stagenet, and 28082 for testnet. --zmq-pub Address for ZMQ pub - tcp://ip:port or ipc://path --db-type Specify database type. The default and only available: lmdb . Commands \u00b6 Commands give access to specific services provided by the daemon. Commands are executed against the running daemon. Their names follow the command_name pattern. The following groups are only to make reference easier to follow. The daemon itself does not group commands in any way. See running for example usage. You can also type commands directly in the console of the running monerod (if not detached). Help, version, status \u00b6 Option Description help [<command>] Show help for <command> . version Show version information. Example output: Monero 'Boron Butterfly' (v0.14.0.0-release) status Show status. Example output: Height: 186754/186754 (100.0%) on stagenet, not mining, net hash 317 H/s, v9, up to date, 8(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 0d 3h 48m 47s P2P network \u00b6 Option Description print_pl Show the full peer list. print_pl_stats Show the full peer list statistics (white vs gray peers). White peers are online and reachable. Grey peers are offline but your monerod remembers them from past sessions. print_cn Show connected peers with connection initiative (incoming/outgoing) and other stats. ban <IP> [<seconds>] Ban a given <IP> for a given amount of <seconds> . By default the ban is for 24h. Example: ./monerod ban 187.63.135.161 . unban <IP> Unban a given <IP> . bans Show the currently banned IPs. Example output: 187.63.135.161 banned for 86397 seconds . in_peers <max_number> Set the of incoming connections from other peers. out_peers <max_number> Set the of outgoing connections to other peers. limit [<kB/s>] Get or set the download and upload limit. limit_down [<kB/s>] Get or set the download limit. limit_up [<kB/s>] Get or set the upload limit. Transaction pool \u00b6 Option Description flush_txpool [<txid>] Flush specified transaction from transactions pool, or flush the whole transactions pool if was not provided. print_pool Print the transaction pool using a verbose format. print_pool_sh Print the transaction pool using a short format. print_pool_stats Print the transaction pool's statistics (number of transactions, memory size, fees, double spend attempts etc). Transactions \u00b6 Option Description print_coinbase_tx_sum <start_height> [<block_count>] Show a sum of all emitted coins and paid fees within specified range. Example: ./monerod print_coinbase_tx_sum 0 1000000000000 print_tx <transaction_hash> [+hex] [+json] Show specified transaction as JSON and/or HEX. relay_tx <txid> Force relaying the transaction. Useful if you want to rebroadcast the transaction for any reason or if transaction was previously created with \"do_not_relay\":true. Blockchain \u00b6 Option Description print_height Show local blockchain height. sync_info Show blockchain sync progress and connected peers along with download / upload stats. print_bc <begin_height> [<end_height>] Show blocks in range <begin_height> .. <end_height> . The information will include block id, height, timestamp, version, size, weight, number of non-coinbase transactions, difficulty, nonce, and reward. print_block <block_hash> | <block_height> Show detailed data of specified block. hard_fork_info Show current consensus version and future hard fork block height, if any. is_key_image_spent <key_image> Check if specified key image is spent. Key image is a hash. Manage daemon \u00b6 Option Description exit , stop_daemon Ask daemon to exit gracefully. The exit and stop_daemon are identical (one is alias of the other). set_log <level>|<{+,-,}categories> Set the current log level/categories where <level> is a number 0-4. print_status Show if daemon is running. update (check|download) Check if update is available and optionally download it. The hash is SHA-256. On linux use sha256sum to verify. Example output: Update available: v0.13.0.4: https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/monero-linux-x64-v0.13.0.4.tar.bz2, hash 693e1a0210201f65138ace679d1ab1928aca06bb6e679c20d8b4d2d8717e50d6 Update downloaded to: /opt/monero-v0.13.0.2/monero-linux-x64-v0.13.0.4.tar.bz2 Mining \u00b6 Option Description show_hr Ask monerod daemon to print current hash rate. Relevant only if monerod is mining. hide_hr Ask monerod daemon to stop printing current hash rate. Relevant only if monerod is mining. start_mining <addr> [<threads>] [do_background_mining] [ignore_battery] Ask monerod daemon to start mining. Block reward will go to <addr> . stop_mining Ask monerod daemon to stop mining. Testing Monero itself \u00b6 Option Description start_save_graph Start saving data for dr Monero. stop_save_graph Stop saving data for dr Monero. Legacy \u00b6 Option Description save Flush blockchain data to disk. This is normally no longer necessary as monerod saves the blockchain automatically on exit. output_histogram [@<amount>] <min_count> [<max_count>] Show number of outputs for each amount denomination. This was only relevant in the pre-RingCT era. The old wallet used this to determine which outputs can be used for the requested mixin. With RingCT denominations are irrelevant as amounts are hidden.

Example (mind file permissions): ./monerod --log-file=/var/log/monero/mainnet/monerod.log --log-level 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. Temporarily changing to 1 allows for much better understanding of how the full node operates. Example: ./monerod --log-level=1 --max-log-file-size Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monerod creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size=0 to prevent monerod from managing the log files. --max-log-files Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed.

The following options will be helpful if you intend to have an always running node \u2014 most likely on a remote server or your own separate PC. Option Description --config-file Full path to the configuration file . By default monerod looks for bitmonero.conf in Monero data directory . --data-dir Full path to data directory. This is where the blockchain, log files, and p2p network memory are stored. For defaults and details see data directory . --pidfile Full path to the PID file. Works only with --detach . Example: ./monerod --detach --pidfile=/run/monero/monerod.pid --detach Go to background (decouple from the terminal). This is useful for long-running / server scenarios. Typically, you will also want to manage monerod daemon with systemd or similar. By default monerod runs in a foreground. --non-interactive Do not require tty in a foreground mode. Helpful when running in a container. By default monerod runs in a foreground and opens stdin for reading. This breaks containerization because no tty gets assigned and monerod process crashes. You can make it run in a background with --detach but this is inconvenient in a containerized environment because the canonical usage is that the container waits on the main process to exist (forking makes things more complicated). --no-zmq Disable ZMQ RPC server. You should use this option to limit attack surface and number of unnecessarily open ports (the ZMQ server is unfinished thing and you are unlikely to ever use it). --no-igd Disable UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). Add this option to improve security if you are not behind a NAT (you can bind directly to public IP or you run through Tor). --max-txpool-weight Set maximum transactions pool size in bytes. By default 648000000 (~618MB). These are transactions pending for confirmations (not included in any block). --enforce-dns-checkpointing The emergency checkpoints set by MoneroPulse operators will be enforced. It is probably a good idea to set enforcing for unattended nodes. If encountered block hash does not match corresponding checkpoint, the local blockchain will be rolled back a few blocks, effectively blocking following what MoneroPulse operators consider invalid fork. The log entry will be produced: ERROR Local blockchain failed to pass a checkpoint, rolling back! Eventually, the alternative (\"fixed\") fork will get heavier and the node will follow it, leaving the \"invalid\" fork behind. By default checkpointing only notifies about discrepancy by producing the following log entry: ERROR WARNING: local blockchain failed to pass a MoneroPulse checkpoint, and you could be on a fork. You should either sync up from scratch, OR download a fresh blockchain bootstrap, OR enable checkpoint enforcing with the --enforce-dns-checkpointing command-line option . Reference: source code . --disable-dns-checkpoints The MoneroPulse checkpoints set by core developers will be discarded. The checkpoints are apparently still fetched though.","title":"Server"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#p2p-network","text":"The following options define how your node participates in Monero peer-to-peer network. This is for node-to-node communication. The following options do not affect wallet-to-node interface. The node and peer words are used interchangeably. Option Description --p2p-bind-ip IPv4 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value 0.0.0.0 binds to all network interfaces. This is typically what you want. You must change this if you want to constrain binding, for example to force working through Tor via torsocks: DNS_PUBLIC=tcp://1.1.1.1 TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1 torsocks ./monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1\u200a --no-igd\u200a --hide-my-port --p2p-bind-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections. Defaults to 18080 for mainnet, 28080 for testnet, and 38080 for stagenet. You normally wouldn't change that. This is helpful to run several nodes on your machine to simulate private Monero p2p network (likely using private Testnet). Example: ./monerod --p2p-bind-port=48080 --p2p-external-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections on your router. Relevant if you are behind a NAT and still want to accept incoming connections. You must then set this to relevant port on your router. This is to let monerod know what to advertise on the network. Default is 0 . --p2p-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for p2p (disabled by default). --p2p-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value :: binds to all network interfaces. --p2p-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for p2p. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --igd Set UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). One of: disabled | enabled | delayed (= delayed by default). Relevant if you are behind NAT and want to accept incoming P2P network connections. The delayed value means it will wait for incoming connections in hope UPnP may not be necessary. After a while w/o incoming connections found it will attempt to map ports with UPnP. If you know you need UPnP change it to enabled to fast track the process. --hide-my-port monerod will still open and listen on the p2p port. However, it will not announce itself as a peer list candidate. Technically, it will return port 0 in a response to p2p handshake ( node_data.my_port = 0 in get_local_node_data function). In effect nodes you connect to won't spread your IP to other nodes. To sum up, it is not really hiding, it is more like \"do not advertise\". --seed-node Connect to a node to retrieve other nodes' addresses, and disconnect. If not specified, monerod will use hardcoded seed nodes on the first run, and peers cached on disk on subsequent runs. --add-peer Manually add node to local peer list, host:port . Syntax supports IP addresses, domain names, onion and i2p hosts. --add-priority-node Specify list of nodes to connect to and then attempt to keep the connection open. To add multiple nodes use the option several times.

If this option is given the options --add-priority-node and --seed-node are ignored. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-exclusive-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-exclusive-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --out-peers Set max number of outgoing connections to other nodes. By default 12. Value -1 represents the code default. --in-peers Set max number of incoming connections (nodes actively connecting to you). By default unlimited. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-up Set outgoing data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 2048 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-down Set incoming data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 8192 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate Set the same limit value for incoming and outgoing data transfer. By default ( -1 ) the individual up/down default limits will be used. It is better to use --limit-rate-up and --limit-rate-down instead to avoid confusion. --offline Do not listen for peers, nor connect to any.

It serves 3 purposes: provides network data (stats, blocks, transactions, ...) provides local node information (peer list, hash rate if mining, ...) provides interface for wallets (send transactions, ...) This API is typically referred to as \"RPC\" because it is mostly based on JSON/RPC standard. The following options define how the API behaves. Option Description --public-node Advertise to other users they can use this node as a remote one for connecting their wallets. Requires --restricted-rpc , --rpc-bind-ip and --confirm-external-bind . Without --public-node the node can still be public (assuming other relevant options are set) but won't be advertised as such on the P2P network. This option will allow wallets to auto-discover public nodes (instead of requiring user to manually find one). --rpc-bind-ip IP to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 because API gives full administrative capabilities over the node. Set it to 0.0.0.0 to listen on all interfaces - but only in connection with one of *-restricted-* options and --confirm-external-bind . --rpc-bind-port TCP port to listen on. By default 18081 (mainnet), 28081 (testnet), 38081 (stagenet). --rpc-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 to listen on. By default ::1 (localhost). All remarks for --rpc-bind-ip are applicable here as well. --rpc-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for RPC server (disabled by default). --rpc-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for RPC. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --rpc-restricted-bind-ip IP to listen on with the limited version of API. The limited API can be made public to create an Open Node. --rpc-restricted-bind-port TCP port to listen on with the limited version of API. To be used in combination with `--rpc-restricted-bind-port . --confirm-external-bind Confirm you consciously set --rpc-bind-ip to non-localhost IP and you understand the consequences. --restricted-rpc Restrict API to view only commands and do not return privacy sensitive data. Note this does not make sense with --rpc-restricted-bind-port because you would end up with two restricted APIs. --rpc-ssl Enable TLS on RPC connections. One of: enabled | disabled | autodetect ( =autodetect by default). You should enable this if you connect a remote wallet. --rpc-ssl-private-key Path to server's private key in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-certificate Path to server's certificate in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-allowed-fingerprints List of certificate fingerprints to accept. This is a way to authenticate clients. --rpc-ssl-allow-any-cert Allow any certificate of connecting client. --rpc-ssl-ca-certificates Path to file containing concatenated PEM format certificate(s) to replace system CA(s). --rpc-ssl-allow-chained Allow user chained certificates. This is only applicable if user has a \"real\" CA issued certificate. --rpc-login Specify username[:password] required to connect to API. --rpc-access-control-origins Specify a comma separated list of origins to allow cross origin resource sharing. This is useful if you want to use monerod API directly from a web browser via JavaScript (say in a pure-fronted web appp scenario). With this option monerod will put proper HTTP CORS headers to its responses. You will also need to set --rpc-login if you use this option. Normally though, the API is used by backend app and this option isn't necessary.","title":"Node RPC API"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#accepting-monero","text":"These are network notifications offered by monerod . There are also wallet notifications like --tx-notify offered by monero-wallet-rpc here . Option Description --block-notify <arg> Run a program for each new block. The <arg> must be a full path . If the <arg> contains %s it will be replaced by the block hash. Example: ./monerod --block-notify=\"/usr/bin/echo %s\" Block notifications are good for immediate reaction. However, you should always assume you will miss some block notifications and you should independently poll the API to cover this up. Mind blockchain reorganizations. Block notifications can revert to same and past heights. Small reorganizations are natural and happen every day. --block-rate-notify <arg> Run a program when the number of blocks received in the recent past deviates significantly from the expectation. The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %t , %b , %e symbols to interpolate: %t : the number of minutes in the observation window %b : the number of blocks observed in that window %e : the ideal number of blocks expected in that window The option will let you know if the network hash rate drops by a lot. This may be indicative of a large section of the network miners moving off to mine a private chain, to be later released to the network. Note that if this event triggers, it is not incontrovertible proof that this is happening. It might just be chance. The longer the window (the %t parameter), and the larger the distance between actual and expected number of blocks, the more indicative it is of a possible chain reorg double-spend attack being prepared. Recommendation: unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, do not act on this data. It is hard to calibrate and easy to misinterpret. If this is a real attack, it will target high-liquidity entities and not small merchants. --reorg-notify <arg> Run a program when reorganization happens (ie, at least one block is removed from the top of the blockchain). The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %s , %h , %n symbols to interpolate: %s : the height at which the split occurs %h : the height of the new blockchain %d : the number of blocks discarded from the old chain %n : the number of blocks being added The option will let you know when a block is removed from the chain to be replaced by other blocks. This happens when a 51% attack occurs, but small reorgs also happen in the normal course of things. The %d parameter will be set to the number of blocks discarded from the old chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, that payment might have been cancelled). The %n parameter wil be set to the number of blocks in the new chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, any incoming payment in the first block will be automatically acted upon by your platform). Recommendation : unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, you do not need to bother with this option. Simply account for reorganizations by requiring at least 10 confirmations before shipping valuable goods.","title":"Accepting Monero"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#performance","text":"These are advanced options that allow you to optimize performance of your monerod node, sometimes at the expense of reliability. Option Description --prune-blockchain Pruning saves 2/3 of disk space w/o degrading functionality. For maximum effect this should be used already on the first sync . If you add this option later the past data will only be pruned logically w/o shrinking the file size and the gain will be delayed. If you already have unpruned blockchain, see the monero-blockchain-prune tool. The drawback is that you will contribute less to Monero P2P network in terms of helping new nodes to sync up (up to 1/8 of normal contribution). You will still be useful regarding relaying new transactions and blocks though. --sync-pruned-blocks Accept pruned blocks instead of pruning yourself. It should save network transfer when used with --prune-blockchain . See the commit and comments . --db-sync-mode Specify sync option, using format: [safe|fast|fastest]:[sync|async]:[<nblocks_per_sync>[blocks]|<nbytes_per_sync>[bytes]] The default is fast:async:250000000bytes . The fast:async:* can corrupt blockchain database in case of a system crash. It should not corrupt if just monerod crashes. If you are concerned with system crashes use safe:sync . --max-concurrency Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. --prep-blocks-threads Max number of threads to use when computing block hashes (PoW) in groups. Defaults to 4. Decrease this if you don't want monerod hog your computer when syncing. --fast-block-sync Sync up most of the way by using embedded, \"known\" block hashes. Pass 1 to turn on and 0 to turn off. This is on ( 1 ) by default. Normally, for every block the full node must calculate the block hash to verify miner's proof of work. Because the CryptoNight PoW used in Monero is very expensive (even for verification), monerod offers skipping these calculations for old blocks. In other words, it's a mechanism to trust monerod binary regarding old blocks' PoW validity, to sync up faster. --block-sync-size How many blocks are processed in a single batch during chain synchronization. By default this is 20 blocks for newer history and 100 blocks for older history (\"pre v4\"). Default behavior is represented by value 0 . Intuitively, the more resources you have, the bigger batch size you may want to try out. Example: ./monerod --block-sync-size=500 --bootstrap-daemon-address The host:port of a \"bootstrap\" remote open node that the connected wallets can use while this node is still not fully synced. Example: ./monerod --bootstrap-daemon-address=opennode.xmr-tw.org:18089 . The node will forward selected RPC calls to the bootstrap node. The wallet will handle this automatically and transparently. Obviously, such bootstraping phase has privacy implications similar to directly using a remote node. --bootstrap-daemon-login Specify username:password for the bootstrap daemon login (if required). This considers the RPC interface used by the wallet. Normally, open nodes do not require any credentials. --no-sync Do not sync up. Continue using bootstrap daemon instead (if set).

In this mode mining will use a small percentage of your system resources to never noticeably slow down your computer. This is intended to encourage people to mine to improve decentralization. That being said chances of finding a block are diminishingly small with solo CPU mining, and even lesser with its unobtrusive version. You can tweak the unobtrusivness / power trade-offs with the further --bg-* options below. --bg-mining-ignore-battery If true, assumes plugged in when unable to query system power status. --bg-mining-min-idle-interval Specify min lookback interval in seconds for determining idle state. --bg-mining-idle-threshold Specify minimum avg idle percentage over lookback interval. --bg-mining-miner-target Specify maximum percentage cpu use by miner(s).","title":"Mining"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#testing-monero-itself","text":"These options are useful for Monero project developers and testers.

One design goal was to make it very friendly for the off-the-shelf CPU-s, by employing: native AES encryption fast 64 bit multipliers scratchpad fitting exactly the size of the per-core L3 cache on Intel CPUs (about 2MB) More ambitious design goal was to make it inefficiently computable on ASIC-s. This goal has since failed, as it inevitably happens with \"ASIC hard\" algorithms. Efficient CryptoNight ASIC was developed in 2017 by Bitmain. Monero inherited CryptoNight as its proof of work in 2014. Since then Monero slightly evolved the algorithm to intentionally break compatibility with released ASIC-s. Currently Monero implements CryptoNight v2, a third iteration of original CryptoNight (v0, v1, v2). The goal is to find small-enough hash \u00b6 In hashing based PoW algorithms the goal is to find small-enough hash. Hash is simply an integer (normally, a very large integer). Most hashing functions result in 256-bit hashes (integers between 0 and 2^256). This includes Bitcoin's double-SHA-256 and Monero's CryptoNight. Miner randomly tweaks input data until the hash fits under specified threshold. The threshold (also a large integer) is established collectively by the network as part of the consensus mechanism. The PoW is only considered valid (solved) if hash fits under the threshold. Because hash functions are one-way, it is not possible to analytically calculate input data that would result in a small-enough hash. The solution must be brute-forced by tweaking the input data and recalculating the hash over and over again. Miners have a few areas of flexibility regarding input data - most importantly they can iterate with the nonce value. They also have a power over which transactions are included in the block and how they are put together in a merkle tree. Cryptographic primitives \u00b6 CryptoNight is based on: AES encryption 5 hashing functions, all of which were finalists in NIST SHA-3 competition: Keccak (the primary one) BLAKE Groestl JH Skein Input data \u00b6 In Monero the input to hashing function is concatenation of: serialized block header (around 46 bytes; subject to varint representation) merkle tree root (32 bytes) number of transactions included in the block (around 1-2 bytes; subject to varint representation) See get_block_hashing_blob() function to dig further. Algorithm \u00b6 Warning The article attempts to give reader a high-level understanding of the CryptoNight algorithm. For implementation details refer to CryptoNote Standard and Monero source code. See references at the bottom. Overview \u00b6 CryptoNight attempts to make memory access a bottleneck for performance (\"memory hardness\"). It has three steps: Initialize large area of memory with pseudo-random data. This memory is known as the scratchpad. Perform numerous read/write operations at pseudo-random (but deterministic) addresses on the scratchpad. Hash the entire scratchpad to produce the resulting value. Step 1: scratchpad initialization \u00b6 Firstly, the input data is hashed with Keccak-1600. This results in 200 bytes of pseudorandom data (1600 bits == 200 bytes). These 200 bytes become a seed to generate a larger, 2MB-wide buffer of pseudorandom data, by applying AES-256 encryption. The first 0..31 bytes of Keccak-1600 hash are used as AES key. The encryption is performed on 128 bytes-long payloads until 2MB is ready. The first payload are Keccak-1600 bytes 66..191. The next payload is encryption result of the previous payload. Each 128-byte payload is actually encrypted 10 times. The details are a bit more nuanced, see \"Scratchpad Initialization\" in CryptoNote Standard . Step 2: memory-hard loop \u00b6 The second step is basically 524288 iterations of a simple stateful algorithm. Each algorithm iteration reads from and writes back to the scratchpad, at pseudorandom-but-deterministic locations. Critically, next iteration depends on the state prepared by previous iterations. It is not possible to directly calculate state of future iterations. The specific operations include AES, XOR, 8byte_mul, 8byte_add - operations that are CPU-friendly (highly optimized on modern CPU-s). The goal here is to make memory latency the bottleneck in attempt to close the gap between potential ASIC-s and general purpose CPU-s. Step 3: hashing \u00b6 The final step (simplifying) is to: combine original Keccak-1600 output with the whole scratchpad pick the hashing algorithm based on 2 low-order bits of the result 0=BLAKE-256 1=Groestl-256 2=JH-256 3=Skein-256 hash the result with selected function The resulting 256-bit hash is the final output of CryptoNight algorithm. Monero specific modifications \u00b6 CryptoNight v0 \u00b6 This is how Monero community refers to original implementation of CryptoNight. CryptoNight v1 \u00b6 See the source code diff . CryptoNight v2 \u00b6 See the rationale and the source code diff . CryptoNight v3 aka CryptoNightR \u00b6 See the rationale and the source code diff . Critique \u00b6 CryptoNight hash is relatively expensive to verify. This poses a risk of DoS-ing nodes with incorrect proofs to process. See strong asymmetry requirement. The hash function was designed from scratch with limited peer review. While CryptoNight is composed of proven and peer-reviewed primitives, combining secure primitives doesn't necessarily result in a secure cryptosystem. CryptoNight ultimately failed to prevent ASIC-s. Complexity of CryptoNight kills competition in ASIC manufacturing. CryptoNight proof of work remains one of the most controversial aspect of Monero.

Monero integrated address embeds a payment ID. This allows you to learn for what you are being paid. Please note these are Monero technical payment IDs and must not be confused with business identifiers like order number or invoice number. The transaction to integrated address will not reveal the payment ID publicly. Payment ID in a transaction will be encrypted with a shared secret (one-time random key known only to sender and recipient). Only the recipient will be able to match the transaction against payment ID.

Individuals should prefer subaddresses to receive payments. This is to improve privacy in certain scenarios. See article on subaddresses for details. Businesses accepting payments in an automated way should prefer integrated addresses . The rationale is as follows: Scenario where subaddresses improve privacy is not applicable to businesses b/c businesses have the same identity over time. Consequently, subaddresses provide no benefits over integrated addresses. No private key is necessary to generate integrated address. This provides a strong security advantage because services that generate integrated addresses need no access to wallet. In contrast, to generate a subaddress, one needs a private view key. No shared counter is necessary to generate integrated address. This allows individual services to independently generate integrated addresses w/o synchronizing on a common sequence. In contrast, subaddresses are generated sequentially, and so the sequence (the counter or index) is a coupling point between the wallet and all services that need to generate the address. Back to integrated addresses, note that embedded payment IDs are 64-bit. This means the space is large enough that one can simply generate them randomly and reliably assume uniqueness. In very specific scenarios, preparation effort to monitor a very huge number of subaddresses, could became an issue. See this reddit thread for details. Caveats \u00b6 There are some caveats: Single transaction cannot pay to multiple integrated addresses. As individual running a wallet you should generally prefer subaddresses. However, if you happen to use integrated addresses, you should allow Monero software to generate integrated addresses for you (instead of forcing your own payment IDs).

Individuals should prefer subaddresses to receive payments. This is to improve privacy in certain scenarios. See article on subaddresses for details. Businesses accepting payments in an automated way should prefer integrated addresses . The rationale is as follows: Scenario where subaddresses improve privacy is not applicable to businesses b/c businesses have the same identity over time. Consequently, subaddresses provide no benefits over integrated addresses. No private key is necessary to generate integrated address. This provides a strong security advantage because services that generate integrated addresses need no access to wallet. In contrast, to generate a subaddress, one needs a private view key. No shared counter is necessary to generate integrated address. This allows individual services to independently generate integrated addresses w/o synchronizing on a common sequence. In contrast, subaddresses are generated sequentially, and so the sequence (the counter or index) is a coupling point between the wallet and all services that need to generate the address. Back to integrated addresses, note that embedded payment IDs are 64-bit. This means the space is large enough that one can simply generate them randomly and reliably assume uniqueness. In very specific scenarios, preparation effort to monitor a very huge number of subaddresses, could became an issue.

Learn for what you are being paid \u00b6 By providing a unique subaddress for each anticipated payment you will know for what you are being paid. This use case overlaps with integrated addresses. Subaddresses are generally prefered for reasons outlined below. Prevent payer from linking your payouts together \u00b6 To prevent the payer from linking your payouts together simply generate a new subaddress for each payout. This way specific service (like anonymous exchange) that sends you Monero won't (easilly) know it is you again receving Monero. The exception to this is when a service (or group of colluding services) decides to actively attack you, one address at the time, with the so-called Janus attack , which risks them losing funds. If you need perfect unlinkability of your receivables, the only solution remains to use a separate seed (separate Monero wallet). Also, note it won't help if you have an account with the service. Then your payouts are already linked in the service database, regardless of Monero. Group funds into accounts \u00b6 Accounts are a convenience wallet-level feature to group subaddresses under one label and balance. You may want to organize your funds into accounts like \"cash\", \"work\", \"trading\", \"mining\", \"donations\", etc. As accounts are only groupings of subaddresses, they themselves do not have an address. Accounts are deterministically derived from the root private key along with subaddresses. Accounts are similar to subaccounts in your classic bank account. There is a very important difference though. In Monero funds don't really sit on accounts or public addresses. Public addresses are conceptually a gateway or a routing mechanism. Funds sit on transactions' unspent outputs. Thus, a single transaction can - in principle - aggregate and spend outputs from multiple addresses (and by extension from multiple accounts). The CLI or GUI wallet may not directly support creating such transactions for simplicity. In short, think of accounts as a soft grouping of your funds. Why not multiple wallets? \u00b6 The advantage over creating multiple wallets is that you only have a single seed to manage. All subaddresses can be derived from the wallet seed. Additionally, you conveniently manage your subaddresses within a single user interface. Wallet level feature \u00b6 Subaddresses and accounts are a wallet-level feature to construct and interpret transactions. They do not affect the consensus. Data structure \u00b6 Subaddress has a dedicated \"network byte\": Index Size in bytes Description 0 1 identifies the network and address type; 42 - mainnet; 36 - stagenet; 63 - testnet Otherwise the data structure is the same as for the standard address . Generating \u00b6 Each subaddress conceptually has: account index (also known as \"major\" index) subaddress index within the account (also known as \"minor\" index) The indexes are 0-based. By default wallets use account index 0. The indexes are not directly included in the subaddress data structure. Instead, they are used as input to generating subaddress keys. Private view key \u00b6 A per-subaddress scalar m is derived as follows: m = Hs(\"SubAddr\" || a || account_index || subaddress_index_within_account) Where: Hs is a Keccak-256 hash function interpreted as integer and modulo l (maximum edwards25519 scalar) || is a byte array concatenation operator SubAddr is a 0-terminated fixed string (8 bytes total) a is a private view key of the standard address (a 32 byte little endian unsigned integer) account_index is index of an account (a 32 bit little endian unsigned integer) subaddress_index_within_account is index of the subaddress within the account (a 32 bit little endian unsigned integer) Deriving \"sub view keys\" from the main view key allows for creating a view only wallet that monitors the entire wallet including subaddresses. Public spend key \u00b6 The subaddress public spend key D is derived as follows: D = B + m*G Where: B is standard address public spend key m is a per-subaddress scalar that is derived from the private spend key G is the \"base point\"; this is simply a constant specific to edwards25519 Public view key \u00b6 The subaddress public view key C is derived as follows: C = a*D Where: a is a private view key of the standard address D is a public spend key of the subaddress Special case for (0, 0) \u00b6 The subaddress #0 on the account #0 is the standard address . As standard address has different generation rules, this is simply implemented via an if statement. Building the address string \u00b6 The procedure is the same as for the standard address .

However, this only concerns privacy against specific sender and the situation will never get worse than not using subaddresses in the first place. If you need to join funds while preserving maximum privacy do it with individual transactions (one per subaddress). Convenience labels are not preserved when recreating from seed.

If you are a beginner, you don't need this. The end goal You will publicly offer the following services, where xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv is your server IP address. xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18080 - clearnet P2P service (for other nodes) xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18081 - clearnet RPC service (for wallets) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18083 - onion P2P service (for other onion nodes) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18081 - onion RPC service (for wallets connecting over Tor) Why different P2P ports for clearnet and onion? This is a monerod requirement. Broadcasting bad transactions from your IP As with any public data broadcast or relay service, \"bad traffic\" or in this case \"bad transactions\" may appear to originate from your server IP address from an outside observer perspective - even though they really originate from a remote wallet user. This is a potential risk you need to keep in mind. Why run this specific setup? \u00b6 You will be able to connect your desktop and mobile Monero wallets to your own trusted Monero node, in a secure and private way over Tor. Your node will be always ready w/o delays (always synced up, contrary to intermittently running node on a laptop). Serving blocks and transactions in Monero P2P network helps new users to bootstrap and sync up their nodes. It also strenghtens Monero P2P network against DDoS attacks and network partitioning. Open wallet inteface (the \"RPC\") allows anyone to connect their wallets to Monero network through your node. This is useful for beginner users who don't run their own nodes yet. Tor onion for wallet interface is useful for wallet users connecting over Tor because it mitigates Tor exit nodes MiTM risks (which are very real). By connecting wallet to an onion service, no MiTM attack is realistic because within the Tor network connections are end-to-end TLS-ed. Tor onion for P2P network is useful for other full node users as it allows them to broadcast transactions over Tor (using --tx-proxy option). Assumptions \u00b6 You understand basic Linux administration. You seek Monero specific guidance. You have root access to a Linux server with 2GB+ RAM and 120GB+ SSD (or 50GB+ for the pruned node version). This is current for Jan 2021. Some commands assume Ubuntu but you will easily translate them to your distribution. Install Tor \u00b6 Install Tor . Modify /etc/tor/torrc as shown below. Enable tor service with systemctl enable tor and restart it via systemctl restart tor Verify the Tor is up systemctl status tor@default A fresh onion address and corresponding key pair got created for you by the tor daemon in /var/lib/tor/monero/ . You may want to backup these to secure control over your onion address. This happens on restart whenever you add new HiddenServiceDir to torrc config. Monero daemon itself is not necessary at this point. The onion services (AKA hidden services) will just wait until localhost monerod shows up at specified ports 18081 and 18083. /etc/tor/torrc \u00b6 HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/monero HiddenServicePort 18081 127.0.0.1 :18081 # interface for wallet ( \"RPC\" ) HiddenServicePort 18083 127.0.0.1 :18083 # interface for P2P network How Tor onion services work? The tor daemon will simply pass over the traffic from virtual onion port to actual localhost port, where some service is listening (in our case, this will be monerod ). A single onion address can offer multiple services at various virtual ports. We will use this to expose both P2P and RPC monerod services on a single onion. You could host any number of onion addresses at single server or IP address but we won't need that here.

These are for the incoming clearnet connections, P2P and RPC respectively. You do not need to open any ports for Tor. The onion services work with virtual ports. The tor daemon does not directly accept incoming connections and so it needs no open ports. For example, for popular ufw firewall, that would be: ufw allow 18080 /tcp ufw allow 18081 /tcp To verify, use ufw status .

Bitcoin does not use zero-knowledge proofs. There is no way you can just \"plug in\" Bulletproofs anywhere in Bitcoin. Perhaps you are talking about confidential transactions (CT). This is a technique to permit a public ledger that makes the amounts hidden while still permitting everyone to verify the balances adds up. If that sounds like magic, that's because it is. CT rely on zero-knowledge proofs. They could use Bulletproofs. They could also use other types of zero-knowledge proofs (there are several, zk-SNARKS is the well known, each with their own trade-offs). Certainly the invention of Bulletproofs made CT more accessible. However... CT is still very different from how Bitcoin works right now. There is no obvious way to integrate them. My best hope would be using something like an extension block, where you can have coins on the \"legacy\" side or coins on the confidential side - with explicit operations to move them between the two. However, that is far from simple, and AFAIK nobody is really working on it. Much as I love this technique and would be very excited to see it in Bitcoin, it's unrealistic to think that it will be usable anytime soon there. Every system must lack at least one of unconditional soundness and unconditional blindness. It's perfectly possible to build a system that lacks both. Bulletproofs are a general zero-knowledge proof technique. That means that they can be used to prove any statement over secret data without revealing that data. You could prove you know 2 numbers that add up to 7. You could prove that you know a string whose SHA256 hash is 16c28109a2719ebd4a123db11ff966f02d814354e3dc932449484f1c5a804af4, without revealing anything else about that string. They could be used instead of zk-SNARKs in Zero-Knowledge Contingent Payments (swapping money for solutions to a problem). These can be done without any changes to Bitcoin. You could (in theory, read on) use them to build a blockchain similar to ZCash (which heavily relies on zk-SNARKs for proving that their ledger makes sense), but without the trusted setup procedure or novel cryptography (Bulletproofs use very conservative security assumptions). Unfortunately, Bulletproof validation is much slower than zk-SNARK validation for complex problems, so it's not really comparable. I expect that the most interesting applications are things we haven't considered yet. They suddenly bring zero-knowledge proofs into scope for a lot of problems and protocols where it wasn't really reasonable to go through the effort of using one of the existing proof systems. ++++ I'm pretty sure that Monero is not unconditionally sound. Even if it is, after switching to Bulletproofs they won't be (Bulletproofs cannot be made unconditionally sound). Yes, with the old rangeproof construction there was an alternative that was unconditionally sound, but not unconditionally private. This is not possible with Bulletproofs (and theoretically impossible with anything with similar compactness; unconditionally sound proofs cannot be small). ++++ Bulletproofs are a general zero-knowledge proof technique. That means that they can be used to prove any statement over secret data without revealing that data. You could prove you know 2 numbers that add up to 7.

Bulletproofs are just a new type of zero-knowledge proof. Compared to zk-SNARKS, they're much more conservative in their security assumptions, and don't need a complicated setup procedure before proofs can be created. On the other hand, they're also larger and slower for complicated problsms. And they don't do anything that couldn't be done before - they're just more practical depending on your requirements.","title":"Bulletproofs"},{"location":"todo/confidential-transactions/","text":"Pieter Wuille on CT: In a system that uses CT, if someone finds a break in the fundamental security of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), he can print money. Worse, because the amounts are all private, he can do so undetectably. That's an existential threat for a currency which has controlled inflation as prime goal. Such a break would be dangerous for Bitcoin (even without CT) regardless, as it relies on ECC for protecting against theft. However, Bitcoin can migrate to use a different signature scheme if necessary. It would be chaotic, but not necessarily pose an existential risk. There are people who agree with this perspective. It's a mathematical fact that any privacy system that hides amounts and is built on top of ECC will at least have one of the properties below: An ECC break will permit printing money undetectaby. An ECC break will permit deanonymizing amounts in the historical chain. In other words: An ECC break means the currency can undetectably be inflated (going forward). An ECC break means the ledger's history can retroactively be deanonymized (goin backward). So we are faced with a choice between those two regardless if we want better privacy. Some people believe the second is worse than the first, and choosing the first actually allows for more efficient technology. This is a choice that Zcash, Monero, Grin, all make. CT with Bulletproofs would do the same. However, regardless of your own opinion in this matter, Bitcoin's evolution is a large collaborative process, where such fundamental changes need buy-in from large parts of the ecosystem. My fear is that the question of giving up the ability to exactly audit the monetary supply is going to make it hard to make CT acceptable. Furthermore, there are other challenges. CT makes transactions larger, slower to verify, and poses a very significant engineering challenge to incorporate into Bitcoin without breaking backward compatibility. ++++ Also, is there any possible system that can have unconditional soundness and privacy at the same time (something other than ECC obviously)? No, that's mathematically impossible.","title":"Confidential transactions"},{"location":"todo/p2p/","text":"","title":"P2p"},{"location":"todo/pedersen-commitment/","text":"Pedersen Commitment \u00b6 https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/9ed7vb/pedersen_commitment/ https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/10177/who-generates-parameters-g-h-for-pedersen-commitment-in-monero","title":"Pedersen Commitment"},{"location":"todo/pedersen-commitment/#pedersen-commitment","text":"https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/comments/9ed7vb/pedersen_commitment/ https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/10177/who-generates-parameters-g-h-for-pedersen-commitment-in-monero","title":"Pedersen Commitment"},{"location":"todo/risks-of-using-remote-node/","text":"Risks of using remote node \u00b6 https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/38/what-privacy-or-security-trade-offs-are-associated-with-not-running-your-own-ful/ https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1482/how-much-information-is-passed-from-the-daemon-to-simplewallet-when-scanning-for?rq=1%20 https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1134/is-it-safe-to-share-a-daemon-with-a-roommate?noredirect=1&lq=1 Reference \u00b6 Reddit answer SE 1 SE 2","title":"Risks of using remote node"},{"location":"todo/risks-of-using-remote-node/#risks-of-using-remote-node","text":"https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/38/what-privacy-or-security-trade-offs-are-associated-with-not-running-your-own-ful/ https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1482/how-much-information-is-passed-from-the-daemon-to-simplewallet-when-scanning-for?rq=1%20 https://monero.stackexchange.com/questions/1134/is-it-safe-to-share-a-daemon-with-a-roommate?noredirect=1&lq=1","title":"Risks of using remote node"},{"location":"todo/risks-of-using-remote-node/#reference","text":"Reddit answer SE 1 SE 2","title":"Reference"},{"location":"todo/stealth-address/","text":"Stealth Address \u00b6 Hides recipient \u00b6 Stealth address is a privacy technique to hide the recipient.

Monero emulates the feature by secret splitting. Transactions are still signed with a single spend key. The spend key is a sum of all N private keys.

This way any 2 participants together have all 3 private keys required to create the private spend key. Multi-signing is a wallet-level feature. There is no way to learn from the blockchain which transactions were created using multiple signatures. It is also worth noting in Monero there is no multisig addresses as such.

Be sceptical on accuracy. Note This article is only about the underlying curve. Public key derivation and signing algorithm will be treated separately. Monero employs edwards25519 elliptic curve as a basis for its key pair generation. The curve comes from the Ed25519 signature scheme. While Monero takes the curve unchanged, it does not exactly follow rest of the Ed25519. The edwards25519 curve is birationally equivalent to Curve25519 . Definition \u00b6 This is the standard edwards25519 curve definition, no Monero specific stuff here, except the naming convention. The convention comes from the CryptoNote whitepaper and is widely used in Monero literature.

It is used as a basis for further calculations. It is an arbitrary choice by the curve authors, just to standardize the scheme. Note that it is enough to specify the y value and the sign of the x value. That's because the specific x can be calculated from the curve equation.

This is achieved by modulo the l value (lowercase L). In other words, the l defines the maximum scalar we can use. l = 2^252 + 27742317777372353535851937790883648493 # => 7237005577332262213973186563042994240857116359379907606001950938285454250989 The l is a prime number specified by the curve authors. In practice this is the private key's strength. Total number of points on the curve \u00b6 The total number of points on the curve is also a prime number: q = 2^255 - 19 In practice not all points are \"useful\" and so the private key strength is limited to l describe above.

Technically, the \"checkpoint\" they publish is a block hash and the block height. By default, Monero full node will simply warn users when MoneroPulse checkpoint does not match the fork it is on. The error will be present in the log and on the console in red. Users are free to discard it. Ideally though, users should consult community on what is going on, and make educated decission on whether to follow the checkpoint-compatible fork or the default fork. Users can also set auto-enforcing the checkpoints via --enforce-dns-checkpointing option to monerod . In case of mismatch, monerod will rollback the local blockchain by a few blocks. Eventually, the alternative (\"fixed\") fork will get heavier and the node will follow it, leaving the \"invalid\" fork behind. This option is recommended for unattended full nodes.

It only suggests the valid fork. Should MoneroPulse got entirely compromised, attacker could stop all auto-enforcing nodes from advancing, by feeding them with the fake checkpoint. This is partially mitigated by DNSSEC and by operating multiple domains. Monero expects checkpoints are consistent across domains. Thus, compromising a single domain or registrar should not lead to any disruption. MoneroPulse also increases the say of its operators in case of possible contentious hard forks.

It is the most reliable and most complete wallet for Monero. Use stagenet for learning. Overview \u00b6 Command line wallet \u00b6 The \"official\" command line wallet for Monero. Available for Linux, macOS and Windows. Wallet uses your private keys to understand your total balance, transactions history, and to facilitate creating transactions. However, wallet does not store the blockchain and does not directly participate in the p2p network. The CLI wallet is the most reliable and most feature complete wallet for Monero. Depends on the full node \u00b6 Wallet connects to a full node to scan the blockchain for your transaction outputs and to send your transactions out to the network. The full node can be either local (same computer) or remote. Normally, you run the full node on the same computer as wallet (or within your home network). Connection happens over HTTP and uses this API . Any transaction leaving the wallet is already blinded by all Monero privacy features. This means plain text HTTP communication isn't an issue on its own even if you connect to a remote node. However, connecting to a remote node has other nuanced trade-offs, which is a topic for a separate article. Syntax \u00b6 ./monero-wallet-cli [options] [command] Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet Running \u00b6 Go to directory where you unpacked Monero. Run the full node and wait until it syncs up with the network (may take up to a few days): ./monerod --stagenet In a separate terminal window, run the wallet: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-new-wallet MoneroExampleStagenetWallet Options \u00b6 Help and version \u00b6 Option Description --help Enlist available options. --version Show monero-wallet-cli version to stdout. Example: Monero 'Boron Butterfly' (v0.14.0.0-release) Pick network \u00b6 Option Description (missing) By default wallet assumes mainnet . --stagenet Run on stagenet . Remember to run your daemon with --stagenet as well. --testnet Run on testnet . Remember to run your daemon with --testnet as well. Logging \u00b6 Option Description --log-file <arg> Full path to the log file. --log-level <arg> 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. --max-log-file-size <arg> Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monero creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size 0 to prevent monero from managing the log files. --max-log-files <arg> Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed. In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. Full node connection \u00b6 Wallet depends on a full node for all non-local operations. The following options define how to connect to monerod : Option Description --daemon-address <arg> Use monerod instance at <host>:<port> . Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --daemon-address monero-stagenet.exan.tech:38081 --stagenet --daemon-host <arg> Use monerod instance at host <arg> instead of localhost. --daemon-port <arg> Use monerod instance at port <arg> instead of 18081. --daemon-login <arg> Specify username[:password] for monerod RPC API. It is based on HTTP Basic Auth. Mind that connections are by default unencrypted. Authentication only makes sense if you establish a secure connection (maybe via Tor, or SSH tunneling, or reverse proxy w/ TLS). --trusted-daemon Enable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for localhost connection. The trust in this context concerns preserving your privacy. Only use this flag if you do control monerod . Trusted daemon allows for commands like rescan_spent , start_mining , import_key_images and behaviors like not warning about potential attack on transient problems with transaction sending. --untrusted-daemon Disable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for a non-localhost connections. See --trusted-daemon for more details. --do-not-relay The newly created transaction will not be relayed to the Monero network. Instead it will be dumped to a file in a raw hexadecimal format. Useful if you want to push the transaction through a gateway like https://xmrchain.net/rawtx . This may be easier to use over Tor than Monero wallet. --allow-mismatched-daemon-version Allow communicating with monerod that uses a different RPC version. Create new wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-new-wallet <arg> Create a new Monero wallet and save it to <arg> file. You will be asked for a password. The password is used to encrypt the wallet file but it is unrelated to your master spend key or mnemonic seed. Generate a very strong password with your password manager (~256 bits of entropy). Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-new-wallet $HOME/.bitmonero/stagenet/wallets/MoneroExampleStagenetWallet --kdf-rounds <arg> Concerns encrypting the wallet file. The wallet file is encrypted with ChaCha stream cipher. The encryption key is derived from the user supplied password by hashing the password with CryptoNight. This option defines how many times the CryptoNight hashing will be applied. The default is 1 round of hashing. Note this is unrelated to spend key generation. The more rounds the longer you will wait to open the wallet or send transaction. But also the attacker will have it harder to brute force your wallet password. Note: You will have to remember and provide the same kdf-rounds on every wallet access! Recommendation: Do not change the default value. Instead generate a very strong wallet password with your password manager (256 bits of entropy). Open existing wallet \u00b6 Option Description --wallet-file <arg> Open existing wallet. Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --wallet-file $HOME/.bitmonero/stagenet/wallets/MoneroExampleStagenetWallet This is only for wallet files generated with monero-wallet-cli , monero-wallet-gui , or monero-wallet-rpc tools. If you have other type of wallet then see importing options. --password <arg> Provide wallet password as a parameter instead of interactively. Remember to escape/quote as needed. Not recommended because the password will remain in your command history and will also be visible in the process table. For automation prefer --password-file . The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . --password-file <arg> Provide password as a file in stead of interactively. Trailing \\n are discarded when reading the password file. Prefer this over --password if you automate wallet access. Make sure the password file is meaningfully separated from the wallet file. Otherwise it provides no security benefit. The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . Restore wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-from-device <arg> Restore/generate a special wallet to work with a hardware device like Ledger or Trezor and save it to <arg> file. Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-from-device MoneroExampleDeviceWallet --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 This is a one-time action. Next time you simply open the wallet . By default the command expects Ledger hardware connected. For Trezor hardware add --hw-device Trezor (expected ~May 2019). It will take up to 25 minutes with default settings. This is because hardware devices are slow to pre-generate subaddresses. To mitigate use low --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 . The local wallet will not have private spend key and will not be able to spend on its own. It serves as a user interface and a bridge for low-power hardware devices. Transaction signing with a private spend key always happens on the hardware device. See the complete guide to hardware wallet setup . --generate-from-view-key <arg> Restore a view-only version of the wallet to track incoming transactions and save it to <arg> file. The wallet is created based on a secret view key and standard address . The secret view key is meant to be pasted as hexadecimal. --generate-from-spend-key <arg> Restore a wallet from secret spend key and save it to <arg> file. The secret spend key is meant to be pasted as hexadecimal. --restore-deterministic-wallet Restore a wallet from secret mnemonic seed . Use this to restore from your 25 words backup. You will be asked for a password to encrypt the wallet file (once restored). Note this is not a passphrase to mnemonic seed. Mnemonic seeds generated by Monero official wallets are naked. --restore-height <arg> Only scan for transactions later than specific blockchain height. The default is 0 . Raising the value makes wallet restoration radically faster . The optimal value should match the day you originally created the wallet (but cannot be later). The mapping between the block height and date/time is available on block explorers like https://xmrchain.net . For instance, if you created the wallet in 2019+ use 1730000 . Multisig wallet \u00b6 Option Description --generate-from-multisig-keys <arg> Create a standard wallet from multisig keys. This is useful to combine all multisig secret keys back into the standard wallet (when you no longer need the multisig). The wallet will then have control of the funds. It only supports providing all secret keys even if the multisig scheme allowed for less (only N/N not N/M ). --restore-multisig-wallet Restore a multisig wallet from secret seed that was earlier exported with the seed interactive command. This only restores your part of the wallet. Other multisig participants will still be necessary to sign the transaction. Config file \u00b6 Option Description --config-file <arg> Full path to the configuration file . Note this should be a separate config than monerod uses because these tools accept different set of options. Performance \u00b6 Option Description --subaddress-lookahead <arg> Accepts m:n , by default 50:200 . The first value is the number of accounts and the second value is the number of subaddresses per account. The wallet will not check for payments to subaddresses further than n away from the last received payment. This can happen if you generated unique subaddresses for n clients in a row but none of them paid. On the other hand the more subaddresses you set to look ahead, the longer it takes to create your wallet, because they must be pre-computed. This is normally not a concern, except for hardware wallets. On the Ledger the default value of 50:200 can take over 20 minutes (one time on wallet creation)! --max-concurrency <arg> Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. Internationalization \u00b6 Option Description --mnemonic-language <arg> Language for mnemonic seed words. One of english , english_old , esperanto , french , german , italian , japanese , lojban , portuguese , russian , spanish . It might be a good idea to stick to default English which is by far the most popular and well tested. It also avoids potential non-ASCII characters pitfalls or bugs. --use-english-language-names If your display freezes, exit blind with ^C, then run again with --use-english-language-names . This can happen when Monero prompts for a language displaying language names in their natives alphabets. Legacy \u00b6 These options are either legacy or rarely useful. Option Description --non-deterministic Generate legacy non-deterministic wallet. The view key will not be derived from the spend key. You would also have to backup the .keys. To restore non-deterministic wallet (standard address) use --generate-from-keys . To restore fully you will need the .keys file. --generate-from-keys <arg> Restore legacy non-deterministic wallet by providing both spend and view keys and the standard address. --shared-ringdb-dir <arg> Set shared ring database path. No longer worthwhile . --create-address-file Has no effect. The *.address.txt file is created regardless of this option. --electrum-seed <arg> Provide mnemonic seed as a commandline option for --restore-deterministic-wallet instead of interactively. This is not recommended b/c the seed will be saved in your command history and also visible in the process list. --generate-from-json <arg> You would run monero-wallet-rpc to use this option. It seems exposed in monero-wallet-cli by accident. --tx-notify <arg> You would run monero-wallet-rpc to use this option. It seems exposed in monero-wallet-cli by accident. Defaults \u00b6 Wallet files are created and seek in current directory. This is rarely what you want. Use --wallet-file and similar options to control this. Log files are created in the same directory as monero-wallet-cli binary. Use --log-file to specify the location. Commands \u00b6 Commands are used interactively in the monero-wallet-cli prompt. You can also run a one-off command by providing it as a commandline parameter. This is rarely useful though. For automation prefer monero-wallet-rpc . The CLI wallet has built-in help for individual commands - we will not attempt to reproduce that. Instead we focus on grouping commands so you can quickly find what you are looking for.

It is based on HTTP Basic Auth. Mind that connections are by default unencrypted. Authentication only makes sense if you establish a secure connection (maybe via Tor, or SSH tunneling, or reverse proxy w/ TLS). --trusted-daemon Enable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted. Default for localhost connection. The trust in this context concerns preserving your privacy. Only use this flag if you do control monerod . Trusted daemon allows for commands like rescan_spent , start_mining , import_key_images and behaviors like not warning about potential attack on transient problems with transaction sending. --untrusted-daemon Disable commands and behaviors which rely on monerod instance being trusted.

The wallet file is encrypted with ChaCha stream cipher. The encryption key is derived from the user supplied password by hashing the password with CryptoNight. This option defines how many times the CryptoNight hashing will be applied. The default is 1 round of hashing. Note this is unrelated to spend key generation. The more rounds the longer you will wait to open the wallet or send transaction. But also the attacker will have it harder to brute force your wallet password.

The option also works in combination with --generate-new-wallet . --password-file <arg> Provide password as a file in stead of interactively.

Example: ./monero-wallet-cli --stagenet --generate-from-device MoneroExampleDeviceWallet --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 This is a one-time action. Next time you simply open the wallet . By default the command expects Ledger hardware connected. For Trezor hardware add --hw-device Trezor (expected ~May 2019). It will take up to 25 minutes with default settings. This is because hardware devices are slow to pre-generate subaddresses. To mitigate use low --subaddress-lookahead 5:20 . The local wallet will not have private spend key and will not be able to spend on its own. It serves as a user interface and a bridge for low-power hardware devices. Transaction signing with a private spend key always happens on the hardware device. See the complete guide to hardware wallet setup . --generate-from-view-key <arg> Restore a view-only version of the wallet to track incoming transactions and save it to <arg> file.

You will be asked for a password to encrypt the wallet file (once restored). Note this is not a passphrase to mnemonic seed. Mnemonic seeds generated by Monero official wallets are naked. --restore-height <arg> Only scan for transactions later than specific blockchain height. The default is 0 . Raising the value makes wallet restoration radically faster . The optimal value should match the day you originally created the wallet (but cannot be later).

The wallet will not check for payments to subaddresses further than n away from the last received payment. This can happen if you generated unique subaddresses for n clients in a row but none of them paid. On the other hand the more subaddresses you set to look ahead, the longer it takes to create your wallet, because they must be pre-computed. This is normally not a concern, except for hardware wallets. On the Ledger the default value of 50:200 can take over 20 minutes (one time on wallet creation)! --max-concurrency <arg> Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs.

It downloads and validates the blockchain from the p2p network. Not aware of your private keys \u00b6 monerod is entirely decoupled from your wallet. monerod does not access your private keys - it is not aware of your transactions and balance. This allows you to run monerod on a separate computer or in the cloud. In fact, you can connect to a remote monerod instance provided by a semi-trusted 3rd party. Such 3rd party will not be able to steal your funds. This is very handy for learning and experimentation. However, there are privacy and reliability implications to using a remote, untrusted node. For any real business you should be running your own full node . Syntax \u00b6 ./monerod [options] [command] Options define how the daemon should be working. Their names follow the --option-name pattern. Commands give access to specific services provided by the daemon. Commands are executed against the running daemon. Their names follow the command_name pattern. Running \u00b6 Go to directory where you unpacked Monero. The stagenet is what your should be using for learning and experimentation. ./monerod --stagenet --detach # run as a daemon in background tail -f ~/.bitmonero/stagenet/bitmonero.log # watch the logs ./monerod --stagenet exit # ask daemon to exit gracefully The mainnnet is when you want to deal with the real XMR. ./monerod --detach # run as a daemon in background tail -f ~/.bitmonero/bitmonero.log # watch the logs ./monerod exit # ask daemon to exit gracefully Options \u00b6 Options define how the daemon should be working. Their names follow the --option-name pattern. The following groups are only to make reference easier to follow. The daemon itself does not group options in any way. Help and version \u00b6 Option Description --help Enlist available options. --version Show monerod version to stdout. Example output: Monero 'Oxygen Orion' (v0.17.1.8-release) --os-version Show build timestamp and target operating system. Example output: OS: Linux #65-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 12:01:51 UTC 2020 5.4.0-59-generic . --check-updates One of: disabled | notify | download (= notify by default). Check for new versions of Monero and optionally download it. You should probably prefer your OS package manager to do the update, if possible. There is also unimplemented update option shown by the help system. Pick network \u00b6 Option Description (missing) By default monerod assumes mainnet . --stagenet Run on stagenet . Remember to run your wallet with --stagenet as well. --testnet Run on testnet . Remember to run your wallet with --testnet as well. Logging \u00b6 Option Description --log-file Full path to the log file. Example (mind file permissions): ./monerod --log-file=/var/log/monero/mainnet/monerod.log --log-level 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. Temporarily changing to 1 allows for much better understanding of how the full node operates. Example: ./monerod --log-level=1 --max-log-file-size Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monerod creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size=0 to prevent monerod from managing the log files. --max-log-files Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed. In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. Server \u00b6 monerod defaults are adjusted for running it occasionally on the same computer as your Monero wallet. The following options will be helpful if you intend to have an always running node \u2014 most likely on a remote server or your own separate PC. Option Description --config-file Full path to the configuration file . By default monerod looks for bitmonero.conf in Monero data directory . --data-dir Full path to data directory. This is where the blockchain, log files, and p2p network memory are stored. For defaults and details see data directory . --pidfile Full path to the PID file. Works only with --detach . Example: ./monerod --detach --pidfile=/run/monero/monerod.pid --detach Go to background (decouple from the terminal). This is useful for long-running / server scenarios. Typically, you will also want to manage monerod daemon with systemd or similar. By default monerod runs in a foreground. --non-interactive Do not require tty in a foreground mode. Helpful when running in a container. By default monerod runs in a foreground and opens stdin for reading. This breaks containerization because no tty gets assigned and monerod process crashes. You can make it run in a background with --detach but this is inconvenient in a containerized environment because the canonical usage is that the container waits on the main process to exist (forking makes things more complicated). --no-zmq Disable ZMQ RPC server. You should use this option to limit attack surface and number of unnecessarily open ports (the ZMQ server is unfinished thing and you are unlikely to ever use it). --no-igd Disable UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). Add this option to improve security if you are not behind a NAT (you can bind directly to public IP or you run through Tor). --max-txpool-weight Set maximum transactions pool size in bytes. By default 648000000 (~618MB). These are transactions pending for confirmations (not included in any block). --enforce-dns-checkpointing The emergency checkpoints set by MoneroPulse operators will be enforced. It is probably a good idea to set enforcing for unattended nodes. If encountered block hash does not match corresponding checkpoint, the local blockchain will be rolled back a few blocks, effectively blocking following what MoneroPulse operators consider invalid fork. The log entry will be produced: ERROR Local blockchain failed to pass a checkpoint, rolling back! Eventually, the alternative (\"fixed\") fork will get heavier and the node will follow it, leaving the \"invalid\" fork behind. By default checkpointing only notifies about discrepancy by producing the following log entry: ERROR WARNING: local blockchain failed to pass a MoneroPulse checkpoint, and you could be on a fork. You should either sync up from scratch, OR download a fresh blockchain bootstrap, OR enable checkpoint enforcing with the --enforce-dns-checkpointing command-line option . Reference: source code . --disable-dns-checkpoints The MoneroPulse checkpoints set by core developers will be discarded. The checkpoints are apparently still fetched though. P2P network \u00b6 The following options define how your node participates in Monero peer-to-peer network. This is for node-to-node communication. The following options do not affect wallet-to-node interface. The node and peer words are used interchangeably. Option Description --p2p-bind-ip IPv4 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value 0.0.0.0 binds to all network interfaces. This is typically what you want. You must change this if you want to constrain binding, for example to force working through Tor via torsocks: DNS_PUBLIC=tcp://1.1.1.1 TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1 torsocks ./monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1\u200a --no-igd\u200a --hide-my-port --p2p-bind-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections. Defaults to 18080 for mainnet, 28080 for testnet, and 38080 for stagenet. You normally wouldn't change that. This is helpful to run several nodes on your machine to simulate private Monero p2p network (likely using private Testnet). Example: ./monerod --p2p-bind-port=48080 --p2p-external-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections on your router. Relevant if you are behind a NAT and still want to accept incoming connections. You must then set this to relevant port on your router. This is to let monerod know what to advertise on the network. Default is 0 . --p2p-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for p2p (disabled by default). --p2p-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value :: binds to all network interfaces. --p2p-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for p2p. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --igd Set UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). One of: disabled | enabled | delayed (= delayed by default). Relevant if you are behind NAT and want to accept incoming P2P network connections. The delayed value means it will wait for incoming connections in hope UPnP may not be necessary. After a while w/o incoming connections found it will attempt to map ports with UPnP. If you know you need UPnP change it to enabled to fast track the process. --hide-my-port monerod will still open and listen on the p2p port. However, it will not announce itself as a peer list candidate. Technically, it will return port 0 in a response to p2p handshake ( node_data.my_port = 0 in get_local_node_data function). In effect nodes you connect to won't spread your IP to other nodes. To sum up, it is not really hiding, it is more like \"do not advertise\". --seed-node Connect to a node to retrieve other nodes' addresses, and disconnect. If not specified, monerod will use hardcoded seed nodes on the first run, and peers cached on disk on subsequent runs. --add-peer Manually add node to local peer list, host:port . Syntax supports IP addresses, domain names, onion and i2p hosts. --add-priority-node Specify list of nodes to connect to and then attempt to keep the connection open. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-priority-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-priority-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --add-exclusive-node Specify list of nodes to connect to only. If this option is given the options --add-priority-node and --seed-node are ignored. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-exclusive-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-exclusive-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --out-peers Set max number of outgoing connections to other nodes. By default 12. Value -1 represents the code default. --in-peers Set max number of incoming connections (nodes actively connecting to you). By default unlimited. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-up Set outgoing data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 2048 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-down Set incoming data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 8192 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate Set the same limit value for incoming and outgoing data transfer. By default ( -1 ) the individual up/down default limits will be used. It is better to use --limit-rate-up and --limit-rate-down instead to avoid confusion. --offline Do not listen for peers, nor connect to any. Useful for working with a local, archival blockchain. --allow-local-ip Allow adding local IP to peer list. Useful mostly for debug purposes when you may want to have multiple nodes on a single machine. Tor/I2P \u00b6 This is experimental. It may be best to start with this guide . Option Description --tx-proxy Send out your local transactions through SOCKS5 proxy (Tor or I2P). Format: <network-type>,<socks-ip:port>[,max_connections][,disable_noise] Example: ./monerod --tx-proxy \"tx-proxy=tor,127.0.0.1:9050,16\" This was introduced to make publishing transactions over Tor easier (no need for torsocks) while allowing clearnet for blocks at the same time (while torsocks affected everything). Adding ,disable_noise disables Dandelion++ (will speed up tx broadcast but is otherwise not recommended). Note that forwarded transactions (those not originating from connected wallet) will still be relayed over clearnet. Requires multiple --add-peer to manually add onion-enabled p2p seed nodes - see Tor onion seed nodes for Monero P2P network . See this guide and commit . --anonymous-inbound Allow anonymous incoming connections to your onionized P2P interface. Format: <hidden-service-address>,<[bind-ip:]port>[,max_connections] Example: ./monerod --anonymous-inbound \"rveahdfho7wo4b2m.onion:18083,127.0.0.1:18083,100\" . Obviously, you first need to setup the hidden service in your Tor config. See the guide . --pad-transactions Pad relayed transactions to next 1024 bytes to help defend against traffic volume analysis. This only makes sense if you are behind Tor or I2P. See commit . Node RPC API \u00b6 monerod node offers powerful API. It serves 3 purposes: provides network data (stats, blocks, transactions, ...) provides local node information (peer list, hash rate if mining, ...) provides interface for wallets (send transactions, ...) This API is typically referred to as \"RPC\" because it is mostly based on JSON/RPC standard. The following options define how the API behaves. Option Description --public-node Advertise to other users they can use this node as a remote one for connecting their wallets. Requires --restricted-rpc , --rpc-bind-ip and --confirm-external-bind . Without --public-node the node can still be public (assuming other relevant options are set) but won't be advertised as such on the P2P network. This option will allow wallets to auto-discover public nodes (instead of requiring user to manually find one). --rpc-bind-ip IP to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 because API gives full administrative capabilities over the node. Set it to 0.0.0.0 to listen on all interfaces - but only in connection with one of *-restricted-* options and --confirm-external-bind . --rpc-bind-port TCP port to listen on. By default 18081 (mainnet), 28081 (testnet), 38081 (stagenet). --rpc-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 to listen on. By default ::1 (localhost). All remarks for --rpc-bind-ip are applicable here as well. --rpc-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for RPC server (disabled by default). --rpc-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for RPC. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --rpc-restricted-bind-ip IP to listen on with the limited version of API. The limited API can be made public to create an Open Node. --rpc-restricted-bind-port TCP port to listen on with the limited version of API. To be used in combination with `--rpc-restricted-bind-port . --confirm-external-bind Confirm you consciously set --rpc-bind-ip to non-localhost IP and you understand the consequences. --restricted-rpc Restrict API to view only commands and do not return privacy sensitive data. Note this does not make sense with --rpc-restricted-bind-port because you would end up with two restricted APIs. --rpc-ssl Enable TLS on RPC connections. One of: enabled | disabled | autodetect ( =autodetect by default). You should enable this if you connect a remote wallet. --rpc-ssl-private-key Path to server's private key in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-certificate Path to server's certificate in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-allowed-fingerprints List of certificate fingerprints to accept. This is a way to authenticate clients. --rpc-ssl-allow-any-cert Allow any certificate of connecting client. --rpc-ssl-ca-certificates Path to file containing concatenated PEM format certificate(s) to replace system CA(s). --rpc-ssl-allow-chained Allow user chained certificates. This is only applicable if user has a \"real\" CA issued certificate. --rpc-login Specify username[:password] required to connect to API. --rpc-access-control-origins Specify a comma separated list of origins to allow cross origin resource sharing. This is useful if you want to use monerod API directly from a web browser via JavaScript (say in a pure-fronted web appp scenario). With this option monerod will put proper HTTP CORS headers to its responses. You will also need to set --rpc-login if you use this option. Normally though, the API is used by backend app and this option isn't necessary. Accepting Monero \u00b6 These are network notifications offered by monerod . There are also wallet notifications like --tx-notify offered by monero-wallet-rpc here . Option Description --block-notify <arg> Run a program for each new block. The <arg> must be a full path . If the <arg> contains %s it will be replaced by the block hash. Example: ./monerod --block-notify=\"/usr/bin/echo %s\" Block notifications are good for immediate reaction. However, you should always assume you will miss some block notifications and you should independently poll the API to cover this up. Mind blockchain reorganizations. Block notifications can revert to same and past heights. Small reorganizations are natural and happen every day. --block-rate-notify <arg> Run a program when the number of blocks received in the recent past deviates significantly from the expectation. The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %t , %b , %e symbols to interpolate: %t : the number of minutes in the observation window %b : the number of blocks observed in that window %e : the ideal number of blocks expected in that window The option will let you know if the network hash rate drops by a lot. This may be indicative of a large section of the network miners moving off to mine a private chain, to be later released to the network. Note that if this event triggers, it is not incontrovertible proof that this is happening. It might just be chance. The longer the window (the %t parameter), and the larger the distance between actual and expected number of blocks, the more indicative it is of a possible chain reorg double-spend attack being prepared. Recommendation: unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, do not act on this data. It is hard to calibrate and easy to misinterpret. If this is a real attack, it will target high-liquidity entities and not small merchants. --reorg-notify <arg> Run a program when reorganization happens (ie, at least one block is removed from the top of the blockchain). The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %s , %h , %n symbols to interpolate: %s : the height at which the split occurs %h : the height of the new blockchain %d : the number of blocks discarded from the old chain %n : the number of blocks being added The option will let you know when a block is removed from the chain to be replaced by other blocks. This happens when a 51% attack occurs, but small reorgs also happen in the normal course of things. The %d parameter will be set to the number of blocks discarded from the old chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, that payment might have been cancelled). The %n parameter wil be set to the number of blocks in the new chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, any incoming payment in the first block will be automatically acted upon by your platform). Recommendation : unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, you do not need to bother with this option. Simply account for reorganizations by requiring at least 10 confirmations before shipping valuable goods. Performance \u00b6 These are advanced options that allow you to optimize performance of your monerod node, sometimes at the expense of reliability. Option Description --prune-blockchain Pruning saves 2/3 of disk space w/o degrading functionality. For maximum effect this should be used already on the first sync . If you add this option later the past data will only be pruned logically w/o shrinking the file size and the gain will be delayed. If you already have unpruned blockchain, see the monero-blockchain-prune tool. The drawback is that you will contribute less to Monero P2P network in terms of helping new nodes to sync up (up to 1/8 of normal contribution). You will still be useful regarding relaying new transactions and blocks though. --sync-pruned-blocks Accept pruned blocks instead of pruning yourself. It should save network transfer when used with --prune-blockchain . See the commit and comments . --db-sync-mode Specify sync option, using format: [safe|fast|fastest]:[sync|async]:[<nblocks_per_sync>[blocks]|<nbytes_per_sync>[bytes]] The default is fast:async:250000000bytes . The fast:async:* can corrupt blockchain database in case of a system crash. It should not corrupt if just monerod crashes. If you are concerned with system crashes use safe:sync . --max-concurrency Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. --prep-blocks-threads Max number of threads to use when computing block hashes (PoW) in groups. Defaults to 4. Decrease this if you don't want monerod hog your computer when syncing. --fast-block-sync Sync up most of the way by using embedded, \"known\" block hashes. Pass 1 to turn on and 0 to turn off. This is on ( 1 ) by default. Normally, for every block the full node must calculate the block hash to verify miner's proof of work. Because the CryptoNight PoW used in Monero is very expensive (even for verification), monerod offers skipping these calculations for old blocks. In other words, it's a mechanism to trust monerod binary regarding old blocks' PoW validity, to sync up faster. --block-sync-size How many blocks are processed in a single batch during chain synchronization. By default this is 20 blocks for newer history and 100 blocks for older history (\"pre v4\"). Default behavior is represented by value 0 . Intuitively, the more resources you have, the bigger batch size you may want to try out. Example: ./monerod --block-sync-size=500 --bootstrap-daemon-address The host:port of a \"bootstrap\" remote open node that the connected wallets can use while this node is still not fully synced. Example: ./monerod --bootstrap-daemon-address=opennode.xmr-tw.org:18089 . The node will forward selected RPC calls to the bootstrap node. The wallet will handle this automatically and transparently. Obviously, such bootstraping phase has privacy implications similar to directly using a remote node. --bootstrap-daemon-login Specify username:password for the bootstrap daemon login (if required). This considers the RPC interface used by the wallet. Normally, open nodes do not require any credentials. --no-sync Do not sync up. Continue using bootstrap daemon instead (if set). See commit . Mining \u00b6 The following options configure solo mining using CPU with the standard software stack monerod . This is mostly useful for: generating your stagenet or testnet coins experimentation and learning if you have super cheap access to vast CPU resources Be advised though that real mining happens in pools and with high-end GPU-s instead of CPU-s. Option Description --start-mining Specify wallet address to mining for. This must be a standard address ! It can be neither a subaddres nor integrated address. --mining-threads Specify mining threads count. By default ony one thread will be used. For best results, set it to number of your physical cores. --extra-messages-file Specify file for extra messages to include into coinbase transactions. --bg-mining-enable Enable unobtrusive mining. In this mode mining will use a small percentage of your system resources to never noticeably slow down your computer. This is intended to encourage people to mine to improve decentralization. That being said chances of finding a block are diminishingly small with solo CPU mining, and even lesser with its unobtrusive version. You can tweak the unobtrusivness / power trade-offs with the further --bg-* options below. --bg-mining-ignore-battery If true, assumes plugged in when unable to query system power status. --bg-mining-min-idle-interval Specify min lookback interval in seconds for determining idle state. --bg-mining-idle-threshold Specify minimum avg idle percentage over lookback interval. --bg-mining-miner-target Specify maximum percentage cpu use by miner(s). Testing Monero itself \u00b6 These options are useful for Monero project developers and testers. Normal users shouldn't be concerned with these. Option Description --keep-alt-blocks Keep alternative blocks on restart. May help with researching reorgs etc. Commit . Research project by noncesense research lab . --test-drop-download For net tests: in download, discard ALL blocks instead checking/saving them (very fast). --test-drop-download-height Like test-drop-download but discards only after around certain height. By default 0 . --regtest Run in a regression testing mode. --keep-fakechain Don't delete any existing database when in fakechain mode. --fixed-difficulty Fixed difficulty used for testing. By default 0 . --test-dbg-lock-sleep Sleep time in ms, defaults to 0 (off), used to debug before/after locking mutex. Values 100 to 1000 are good for tests. --save-graph Save data for dr Monero. Legacy \u00b6 These options should no longer be necessary. They are still present in monerod for backwards compatibility. Option Description --ban-list Specify ban list file, one IP address per line. This was introduced as an emergency measure to deal with large DDoS attacks on Monero p2p network in Dec 2020 / Jan 2021. Example: ./monerod --ban-list=block_tor.txt . Here is the popular block_tor.txt file. It is not recommended to statically ban any IP addresses unless you absolutely need to. Banning IPs often excludes the most vulnerable users who are forced to operate entirely behind Tor or other anonymity networks. --enable-dns-blocklist Similar to --ban-list but instead of a static file uses dynamic IP blocklist available as DNS TXT entries. The DNS blocklist is centrally managed by Monero contributors. It is not recommended unless in emergency situations. --fluffy-blocks Relay compact blocks. Default. Compact block is just a header and a list of transaction IDs. --no-fluffy-blocks Relay classic full blocks. Classic block contains all transactions. --show-time-stats Official docs say \"Show time-stats when processing blocks/txs and disk synchronization\" but it does not seem to produce any output during usual blockchain synchronization. --zmq-rpc-bind-ip IP for ZMQ RPC server to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 . This is not yet widely used as ZMQ interface currently does not provide meaningful advantage over classic JSON-RPC interface. --zmq-rpc-bind-port Port for ZMQ RPC server to listen on. By default 18082 for mainnet, 38082 for stagenet, and 28082 for testnet. --zmq-pub Address for ZMQ pub - tcp://ip:port or ipc://path --db-type Specify database type. The default and only available: lmdb . Commands \u00b6 Commands give access to specific services provided by the daemon. Commands are executed against the running daemon. Their names follow the command_name pattern. The following groups are only to make reference easier to follow. The daemon itself does not group commands in any way. See running for example usage. You can also type commands directly in the console of the running monerod (if not detached). Help, version, status \u00b6 Option Description help [<command>] Show help for <command> . version Show version information. Example output: Monero 'Boron Butterfly' (v0.14.0.0-release) status Show status. Example output: Height: 186754/186754 (100.0%) on stagenet, not mining, net hash 317 H/s, v9, up to date, 8(out)+0(in) connections, uptime 0d 3h 48m 47s P2P network \u00b6 Option Description print_pl Show the full peer list. print_pl_stats Show the full peer list statistics (white vs gray peers). White peers are online and reachable. Grey peers are offline but your monerod remembers them from past sessions. print_cn Show connected peers with connection initiative (incoming/outgoing) and other stats. ban <IP> [<seconds>] Ban a given <IP> for a given amount of <seconds> . By default the ban is for 24h. Example: ./monerod ban 187.63.135.161 . unban <IP> Unban a given <IP> . bans Show the currently banned IPs. Example output: 187.63.135.161 banned for 86397 seconds . in_peers <max_number> Set the of incoming connections from other peers. out_peers <max_number> Set the of outgoing connections to other peers. limit [<kB/s>] Get or set the download and upload limit. limit_down [<kB/s>] Get or set the download limit. limit_up [<kB/s>] Get or set the upload limit. Transaction pool \u00b6 Option Description flush_txpool [<txid>] Flush specified transaction from transactions pool, or flush the whole transactions pool if was not provided. print_pool Print the transaction pool using a verbose format. print_pool_sh Print the transaction pool using a short format. print_pool_stats Print the transaction pool's statistics (number of transactions, memory size, fees, double spend attempts etc). Transactions \u00b6 Option Description print_coinbase_tx_sum <start_height> [<block_count>] Show a sum of all emitted coins and paid fees within specified range. Example: ./monerod print_coinbase_tx_sum 0 1000000000000 print_tx <transaction_hash> [+hex] [+json] Show specified transaction as JSON and/or HEX. relay_tx <txid> Force relaying the transaction. Useful if you want to rebroadcast the transaction for any reason or if transaction was previously created with \"do_not_relay\":true. Blockchain \u00b6 Option Description print_height Show local blockchain height. sync_info Show blockchain sync progress and connected peers along with download / upload stats. print_bc <begin_height> [<end_height>] Show blocks in range <begin_height> .. <end_height> . The information will include block id, height, timestamp, version, size, weight, number of non-coinbase transactions, difficulty, nonce, and reward. print_block <block_hash> | <block_height> Show detailed data of specified block. hard_fork_info Show current consensus version and future hard fork block height, if any. is_key_image_spent <key_image> Check if specified key image is spent. Key image is a hash. Manage daemon \u00b6 Option Description exit , stop_daemon Ask daemon to exit gracefully. The exit and stop_daemon are identical (one is alias of the other). set_log <level>|<{+,-,}categories> Set the current log level/categories where <level> is a number 0-4. print_status Show if daemon is running. update (check|download) Check if update is available and optionally download it. The hash is SHA-256. On linux use sha256sum to verify. Example output: Update available: v0.13.0.4: https://downloads.getmonero.org/cli/monero-linux-x64-v0.13.0.4.tar.bz2, hash 693e1a0210201f65138ace679d1ab1928aca06bb6e679c20d8b4d2d8717e50d6 Update downloaded to: /opt/monero-v0.13.0.2/monero-linux-x64-v0.13.0.4.tar.bz2 Mining \u00b6 Option Description show_hr Ask monerod daemon to print current hash rate. Relevant only if monerod is mining. hide_hr Ask monerod daemon to stop printing current hash rate. Relevant only if monerod is mining. start_mining <addr> [<threads>] [do_background_mining] [ignore_battery] Ask monerod daemon to start mining. Block reward will go to <addr> . stop_mining Ask monerod daemon to stop mining. Testing Monero itself \u00b6 Option Description start_save_graph Start saving data for dr Monero. stop_save_graph Stop saving data for dr Monero. Legacy \u00b6 Option Description save Flush blockchain data to disk. This is normally no longer necessary as monerod saves the blockchain automatically on exit. output_histogram [@<amount>] <min_count> [<max_count>] Show number of outputs for each amount denomination. This was only relevant in the pre-RingCT era. The old wallet used this to determine which outputs can be used for the requested mixin. With RingCT denominations are irrelevant as amounts are hidden.

Example (mind file permissions): ./monerod --log-file=/var/log/monero/mainnet/monerod.log --log-level 0-4 with 0 being minimal logging and 4 being full tracing. Defaults to 0 . These are general presets and do not directly map to severity levels. For example, even with minimal 0 , you may see some most important INFO entries. Temporarily changing to 1 allows for much better understanding of how the full node operates. Example: ./monerod --log-level=1 --max-log-file-size Soft limit in bytes for the log file (=104850000 by default, which is just under 100MB). Once log file grows past that limit, monerod creates the next log file with a UTC timestamp postfix -YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM-SS . In production deployments, you would probably prefer to use established solutions like logrotate instead. In that case, set --max-log-file-size=0 to prevent monerod from managing the log files. --max-log-files Limit on the number of log files (=50 by default). The oldest log files are removed.

The following options will be helpful if you intend to have an always running node \u2014 most likely on a remote server or your own separate PC. Option Description --config-file Full path to the configuration file . By default monerod looks for bitmonero.conf in Monero data directory . --data-dir Full path to data directory. This is where the blockchain, log files, and p2p network memory are stored. For defaults and details see data directory . --pidfile Full path to the PID file. Works only with --detach . Example: ./monerod --detach --pidfile=/run/monero/monerod.pid --detach Go to background (decouple from the terminal). This is useful for long-running / server scenarios. Typically, you will also want to manage monerod daemon with systemd or similar. By default monerod runs in a foreground. --non-interactive Do not require tty in a foreground mode. Helpful when running in a container. By default monerod runs in a foreground and opens stdin for reading. This breaks containerization because no tty gets assigned and monerod process crashes. You can make it run in a background with --detach but this is inconvenient in a containerized environment because the canonical usage is that the container waits on the main process to exist (forking makes things more complicated). --no-zmq Disable ZMQ RPC server. You should use this option to limit attack surface and number of unnecessarily open ports (the ZMQ server is unfinished thing and you are unlikely to ever use it). --no-igd Disable UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). Add this option to improve security if you are not behind a NAT (you can bind directly to public IP or you run through Tor). --max-txpool-weight Set maximum transactions pool size in bytes. By default 648000000 (~618MB). These are transactions pending for confirmations (not included in any block). --enforce-dns-checkpointing The emergency checkpoints set by MoneroPulse operators will be enforced. It is probably a good idea to set enforcing for unattended nodes. If encountered block hash does not match corresponding checkpoint, the local blockchain will be rolled back a few blocks, effectively blocking following what MoneroPulse operators consider invalid fork. The log entry will be produced: ERROR Local blockchain failed to pass a checkpoint, rolling back! Eventually, the alternative (\"fixed\") fork will get heavier and the node will follow it, leaving the \"invalid\" fork behind. By default checkpointing only notifies about discrepancy by producing the following log entry: ERROR WARNING: local blockchain failed to pass a MoneroPulse checkpoint, and you could be on a fork. You should either sync up from scratch, OR download a fresh blockchain bootstrap, OR enable checkpoint enforcing with the --enforce-dns-checkpointing command-line option . Reference: source code . --disable-dns-checkpoints The MoneroPulse checkpoints set by core developers will be discarded. The checkpoints are apparently still fetched though.","title":"Server"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#p2p-network","text":"The following options define how your node participates in Monero peer-to-peer network. This is for node-to-node communication. The following options do not affect wallet-to-node interface. The node and peer words are used interchangeably. Option Description --p2p-bind-ip IPv4 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value 0.0.0.0 binds to all network interfaces. This is typically what you want. You must change this if you want to constrain binding, for example to force working through Tor via torsocks: DNS_PUBLIC=tcp://1.1.1.1 TORSOCKS_ALLOW_INBOUND=1 torsocks ./monerod --p2p-bind-ip 127.0.0.1\u200a --no-igd\u200a --hide-my-port --p2p-bind-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections. Defaults to 18080 for mainnet, 28080 for testnet, and 38080 for stagenet. You normally wouldn't change that. This is helpful to run several nodes on your machine to simulate private Monero p2p network (likely using private Testnet). Example: ./monerod --p2p-bind-port=48080 --p2p-external-port TCP port to listen for p2p network connections on your router. Relevant if you are behind a NAT and still want to accept incoming connections. You must then set this to relevant port on your router. This is to let monerod know what to advertise on the network. Default is 0 . --p2p-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for p2p (disabled by default). --p2p-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 network interface to bind to for p2p network protocol. Default value :: binds to all network interfaces. --p2p-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for p2p. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --igd Set UPnP port mapping on the router (\"Internet Gateway Device\"). One of: disabled | enabled | delayed (= delayed by default). Relevant if you are behind NAT and want to accept incoming P2P network connections. The delayed value means it will wait for incoming connections in hope UPnP may not be necessary. After a while w/o incoming connections found it will attempt to map ports with UPnP. If you know you need UPnP change it to enabled to fast track the process. --hide-my-port monerod will still open and listen on the p2p port. However, it will not announce itself as a peer list candidate. Technically, it will return port 0 in a response to p2p handshake ( node_data.my_port = 0 in get_local_node_data function). In effect nodes you connect to won't spread your IP to other nodes. To sum up, it is not really hiding, it is more like \"do not advertise\". --seed-node Connect to a node to retrieve other nodes' addresses, and disconnect. If not specified, monerod will use hardcoded seed nodes on the first run, and peers cached on disk on subsequent runs. --add-peer Manually add node to local peer list, host:port . Syntax supports IP addresses, domain names, onion and i2p hosts. --add-priority-node Specify list of nodes to connect to and then attempt to keep the connection open. To add multiple nodes use the option several times.

If this option is given the options --add-priority-node and --seed-node are ignored. To add multiple nodes use the option several times. Example: ./monerod --add-exclusive-node=178.128.192.138:18081 --add-exclusive-node=144.76.202.167:18081 --out-peers Set max number of outgoing connections to other nodes. By default 12. Value -1 represents the code default. --in-peers Set max number of incoming connections (nodes actively connecting to you). By default unlimited. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-up Set outgoing data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 2048 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate-down Set incoming data transfer limit [kB/s]. By default 8192 kB/s. Value -1 represents the code default. --limit-rate Set the same limit value for incoming and outgoing data transfer. By default ( -1 ) the individual up/down default limits will be used. It is better to use --limit-rate-up and --limit-rate-down instead to avoid confusion. --offline Do not listen for peers, nor connect to any.

It serves 3 purposes: provides network data (stats, blocks, transactions, ...) provides local node information (peer list, hash rate if mining, ...) provides interface for wallets (send transactions, ...) This API is typically referred to as \"RPC\" because it is mostly based on JSON/RPC standard. The following options define how the API behaves. Option Description --public-node Advertise to other users they can use this node as a remote one for connecting their wallets. Requires --restricted-rpc , --rpc-bind-ip and --confirm-external-bind . Without --public-node the node can still be public (assuming other relevant options are set) but won't be advertised as such on the P2P network. This option will allow wallets to auto-discover public nodes (instead of requiring user to manually find one). --rpc-bind-ip IP to listen on. By default 127.0.0.1 because API gives full administrative capabilities over the node. Set it to 0.0.0.0 to listen on all interfaces - but only in connection with one of *-restricted-* options and --confirm-external-bind . --rpc-bind-port TCP port to listen on. By default 18081 (mainnet), 28081 (testnet), 38081 (stagenet). --rpc-bind-ipv6-address IPv6 to listen on. By default ::1 (localhost). All remarks for --rpc-bind-ip are applicable here as well. --rpc-use-ipv6 Enable IPv6 for RPC server (disabled by default). --rpc-ignore-ipv4 Ignore unsuccessful IPv4 bind for RPC. Useful if you only want to use IPv6. --rpc-restricted-bind-ip IP to listen on with the limited version of API. The limited API can be made public to create an Open Node. --rpc-restricted-bind-port TCP port to listen on with the limited version of API. To be used in combination with `--rpc-restricted-bind-port . --confirm-external-bind Confirm you consciously set --rpc-bind-ip to non-localhost IP and you understand the consequences. --restricted-rpc Restrict API to view only commands and do not return privacy sensitive data. Note this does not make sense with --rpc-restricted-bind-port because you would end up with two restricted APIs. --rpc-ssl Enable TLS on RPC connections. One of: enabled | disabled | autodetect ( =autodetect by default). You should enable this if you connect a remote wallet. --rpc-ssl-private-key Path to server's private key in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-certificate Path to server's certificate in PEM format. Generate it with monero-gen-ssl-cert tool. This is to facilitate server authentication to client. --rpc-ssl-allowed-fingerprints List of certificate fingerprints to accept. This is a way to authenticate clients. --rpc-ssl-allow-any-cert Allow any certificate of connecting client. --rpc-ssl-ca-certificates Path to file containing concatenated PEM format certificate(s) to replace system CA(s). --rpc-ssl-allow-chained Allow user chained certificates. This is only applicable if user has a \"real\" CA issued certificate. --rpc-login Specify username[:password] required to connect to API. --rpc-access-control-origins Specify a comma separated list of origins to allow cross origin resource sharing. This is useful if you want to use monerod API directly from a web browser via JavaScript (say in a pure-fronted web appp scenario). With this option monerod will put proper HTTP CORS headers to its responses. You will also need to set --rpc-login if you use this option. Normally though, the API is used by backend app and this option isn't necessary.","title":"Node RPC API"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#accepting-monero","text":"These are network notifications offered by monerod . There are also wallet notifications like --tx-notify offered by monero-wallet-rpc here . Option Description --block-notify <arg> Run a program for each new block. The <arg> must be a full path . If the <arg> contains %s it will be replaced by the block hash. Example: ./monerod --block-notify=\"/usr/bin/echo %s\" Block notifications are good for immediate reaction. However, you should always assume you will miss some block notifications and you should independently poll the API to cover this up. Mind blockchain reorganizations. Block notifications can revert to same and past heights. Small reorganizations are natural and happen every day. --block-rate-notify <arg> Run a program when the number of blocks received in the recent past deviates significantly from the expectation. The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %t , %b , %e symbols to interpolate: %t : the number of minutes in the observation window %b : the number of blocks observed in that window %e : the ideal number of blocks expected in that window The option will let you know if the network hash rate drops by a lot. This may be indicative of a large section of the network miners moving off to mine a private chain, to be later released to the network. Note that if this event triggers, it is not incontrovertible proof that this is happening. It might just be chance. The longer the window (the %t parameter), and the larger the distance between actual and expected number of blocks, the more indicative it is of a possible chain reorg double-spend attack being prepared. Recommendation: unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, do not act on this data. It is hard to calibrate and easy to misinterpret. If this is a real attack, it will target high-liquidity entities and not small merchants. --reorg-notify <arg> Run a program when reorganization happens (ie, at least one block is removed from the top of the blockchain). The <arg> must be a full path . The <arg > can contain any of %s , %h , %n symbols to interpolate: %s : the height at which the split occurs %h : the height of the new blockchain %d : the number of blocks discarded from the old chain %n : the number of blocks being added The option will let you know when a block is removed from the chain to be replaced by other blocks. This happens when a 51% attack occurs, but small reorgs also happen in the normal course of things. The %d parameter will be set to the number of blocks discarded from the old chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, that payment might have been cancelled). The %n parameter wil be set to the number of blocks in the new chain (so if this is higher than the number of confirmations you wait to act upon an incoming payment, any incoming payment in the first block will be automatically acted upon by your platform). Recommendation : unless you run economically significant Monero exchange or operation, you do not need to bother with this option. Simply account for reorganizations by requiring at least 10 confirmations before shipping valuable goods.","title":"Accepting Monero"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#performance","text":"These are advanced options that allow you to optimize performance of your monerod node, sometimes at the expense of reliability. Option Description --prune-blockchain Pruning saves 2/3 of disk space w/o degrading functionality. For maximum effect this should be used already on the first sync . If you add this option later the past data will only be pruned logically w/o shrinking the file size and the gain will be delayed. If you already have unpruned blockchain, see the monero-blockchain-prune tool. The drawback is that you will contribute less to Monero P2P network in terms of helping new nodes to sync up (up to 1/8 of normal contribution). You will still be useful regarding relaying new transactions and blocks though. --sync-pruned-blocks Accept pruned blocks instead of pruning yourself. It should save network transfer when used with --prune-blockchain . See the commit and comments . --db-sync-mode Specify sync option, using format: [safe|fast|fastest]:[sync|async]:[<nblocks_per_sync>[blocks]|<nbytes_per_sync>[bytes]] The default is fast:async:250000000bytes . The fast:async:* can corrupt blockchain database in case of a system crash. It should not corrupt if just monerod crashes. If you are concerned with system crashes use safe:sync . --max-concurrency Max number of threads to use for parallel jobs. The default value 0 uses the number of CPU threads. --prep-blocks-threads Max number of threads to use when computing block hashes (PoW) in groups. Defaults to 4. Decrease this if you don't want monerod hog your computer when syncing. --fast-block-sync Sync up most of the way by using embedded, \"known\" block hashes. Pass 1 to turn on and 0 to turn off. This is on ( 1 ) by default. Normally, for every block the full node must calculate the block hash to verify miner's proof of work. Because the CryptoNight PoW used in Monero is very expensive (even for verification), monerod offers skipping these calculations for old blocks. In other words, it's a mechanism to trust monerod binary regarding old blocks' PoW validity, to sync up faster. --block-sync-size How many blocks are processed in a single batch during chain synchronization. By default this is 20 blocks for newer history and 100 blocks for older history (\"pre v4\"). Default behavior is represented by value 0 . Intuitively, the more resources you have, the bigger batch size you may want to try out. Example: ./monerod --block-sync-size=500 --bootstrap-daemon-address The host:port of a \"bootstrap\" remote open node that the connected wallets can use while this node is still not fully synced. Example: ./monerod --bootstrap-daemon-address=opennode.xmr-tw.org:18089 . The node will forward selected RPC calls to the bootstrap node. The wallet will handle this automatically and transparently. Obviously, such bootstraping phase has privacy implications similar to directly using a remote node. --bootstrap-daemon-login Specify username:password for the bootstrap daemon login (if required). This considers the RPC interface used by the wallet. Normally, open nodes do not require any credentials. --no-sync Do not sync up. Continue using bootstrap daemon instead (if set).

In this mode mining will use a small percentage of your system resources to never noticeably slow down your computer. This is intended to encourage people to mine to improve decentralization. That being said chances of finding a block are diminishingly small with solo CPU mining, and even lesser with its unobtrusive version. You can tweak the unobtrusivness / power trade-offs with the further --bg-* options below. --bg-mining-ignore-battery If true, assumes plugged in when unable to query system power status. --bg-mining-min-idle-interval Specify min lookback interval in seconds for determining idle state. --bg-mining-idle-threshold Specify minimum avg idle percentage over lookback interval. --bg-mining-miner-target Specify maximum percentage cpu use by miner(s).","title":"Mining"},{"location":"interacting/monerod-reference/#testing-monero-itself","text":"These options are useful for Monero project developers and testers.

One design goal was to make it very friendly for the off-the-shelf CPU-s, by employing: native AES encryption fast 64 bit multipliers scratchpad fitting exactly the size of the per-core L3 cache on Intel CPUs (about 2MB) More ambitious design goal was to make it inefficiently computable on ASIC-s. This goal has since failed, as it inevitably happens with \"ASIC hard\" algorithms. Efficient CryptoNight ASIC was developed in 2017 by Bitmain. Monero inherited CryptoNight as its proof of work in 2014. Since then Monero slightly evolved the algorithm to intentionally break compatibility with released ASIC-s. Currently Monero implements CryptoNight v2, a third iteration of original CryptoNight (v0, v1, v2). The goal is to find small-enough hash \u00b6 In hashing based PoW algorithms the goal is to find small-enough hash. Hash is simply an integer (normally, a very large integer). Most hashing functions result in 256-bit hashes (integers between 0 and 2^256). This includes Bitcoin's double-SHA-256 and Monero's CryptoNight. Miner randomly tweaks input data until the hash fits under specified threshold. The threshold (also a large integer) is established collectively by the network as part of the consensus mechanism. The PoW is only considered valid (solved) if hash fits under the threshold. Because hash functions are one-way, it is not possible to analytically calculate input data that would result in a small-enough hash. The solution must be brute-forced by tweaking the input data and recalculating the hash over and over again. Miners have a few areas of flexibility regarding input data - most importantly they can iterate with the nonce value. They also have a power over which transactions are included in the block and how they are put together in a merkle tree. Cryptographic primitives \u00b6 CryptoNight is based on: AES encryption 5 hashing functions, all of which were finalists in NIST SHA-3 competition: Keccak (the primary one) BLAKE Groestl JH Skein Input data \u00b6 In Monero the input to hashing function is concatenation of: serialized block header (around 46 bytes; subject to varint representation) merkle tree root (32 bytes) number of transactions included in the block (around 1-2 bytes; subject to varint representation) See get_block_hashing_blob() function to dig further. Algorithm \u00b6 Warning The article attempts to give reader a high-level understanding of the CryptoNight algorithm. For implementation details refer to CryptoNote Standard and Monero source code. See references at the bottom. Overview \u00b6 CryptoNight attempts to make memory access a bottleneck for performance (\"memory hardness\"). It has three steps: Initialize large area of memory with pseudo-random data. This memory is known as the scratchpad. Perform numerous read/write operations at pseudo-random (but deterministic) addresses on the scratchpad. Hash the entire scratchpad to produce the resulting value. Step 1: scratchpad initialization \u00b6 Firstly, the input data is hashed with Keccak-1600. This results in 200 bytes of pseudorandom data (1600 bits == 200 bytes). These 200 bytes become a seed to generate a larger, 2MB-wide buffer of pseudorandom data, by applying AES-256 encryption. The first 0..31 bytes of Keccak-1600 hash are used as AES key. The encryption is performed on 128 bytes-long payloads until 2MB is ready. The first payload are Keccak-1600 bytes 66..191. The next payload is encryption result of the previous payload. Each 128-byte payload is actually encrypted 10 times. The details are a bit more nuanced, see \"Scratchpad Initialization\" in CryptoNote Standard . Step 2: memory-hard loop \u00b6 The second step is basically 524288 iterations of a simple stateful algorithm. Each algorithm iteration reads from and writes back to the scratchpad, at pseudorandom-but-deterministic locations. Critically, next iteration depends on the state prepared by previous iterations. It is not possible to directly calculate state of future iterations. The specific operations include AES, XOR, 8byte_mul, 8byte_add - operations that are CPU-friendly (highly optimized on modern CPU-s). The goal here is to make memory latency the bottleneck in attempt to close the gap between potential ASIC-s and general purpose CPU-s. Step 3: hashing \u00b6 The final step (simplifying) is to: combine original Keccak-1600 output with the whole scratchpad pick the hashing algorithm based on 2 low-order bits of the result 0=BLAKE-256 1=Groestl-256 2=JH-256 3=Skein-256 hash the result with selected function The resulting 256-bit hash is the final output of CryptoNight algorithm. Monero specific modifications \u00b6 CryptoNight v0 \u00b6 This is how Monero community refers to original implementation of CryptoNight. CryptoNight v1 \u00b6 See the source code diff . CryptoNight v2 \u00b6 See the rationale and the source code diff . CryptoNight v3 aka CryptoNightR \u00b6 See the rationale and the source code diff . Critique \u00b6 CryptoNight hash is relatively expensive to verify. This poses a risk of DoS-ing nodes with incorrect proofs to process. See strong asymmetry requirement. The hash function was designed from scratch with limited peer review. While CryptoNight is composed of proven and peer-reviewed primitives, combining secure primitives doesn't necessarily result in a secure cryptosystem. CryptoNight ultimately failed to prevent ASIC-s. Complexity of CryptoNight kills competition in ASIC manufacturing. CryptoNight proof of work remains one of the most controversial aspect of Monero.

Monero integrated address embeds a payment ID. This allows you to learn for what you are being paid. Please note these are Monero technical payment IDs and must not be confused with business identifiers like order number or invoice number. The transaction to integrated address will not reveal the payment ID publicly. Payment ID in a transaction will be encrypted with a shared secret (one-time random key known only to sender and recipient). Only the recipient will be able to match the transaction against payment ID.

Individuals should prefer subaddresses to receive payments. This is to improve privacy in certain scenarios. See article on subaddresses for details. Businesses accepting payments in an automated way should prefer integrated addresses . The rationale is as follows: Scenario where subaddresses improve privacy is not applicable to businesses b/c businesses have the same identity over time. Consequently, subaddresses provide no benefits over integrated addresses. No private key is necessary to generate integrated address. This provides a strong security advantage because services that generate integrated addresses need no access to wallet. In contrast, to generate a subaddress, one needs a private view key. No shared counter is necessary to generate integrated address. This allows individual services to independently generate integrated addresses w/o synchronizing on a common sequence. In contrast, subaddresses are generated sequentially, and so the sequence (the counter or index) is a coupling point between the wallet and all services that need to generate the address. Back to integrated addresses, note that embedded payment IDs are 64-bit. This means the space is large enough that one can simply generate them randomly and reliably assume uniqueness. In very specific scenarios, preparation effort to monitor a very huge number of subaddresses, could became an issue. See this reddit thread for details. Caveats \u00b6 There are some caveats: Single transaction cannot pay to multiple integrated addresses. As individual running a wallet you should generally prefer subaddresses. However, if you happen to use integrated addresses, you should allow Monero software to generate integrated addresses for you (instead of forcing your own payment IDs).

Individuals should prefer subaddresses to receive payments. This is to improve privacy in certain scenarios. See article on subaddresses for details. Businesses accepting payments in an automated way should prefer integrated addresses . The rationale is as follows: Scenario where subaddresses improve privacy is not applicable to businesses b/c businesses have the same identity over time. Consequently, subaddresses provide no benefits over integrated addresses. No private key is necessary to generate integrated address. This provides a strong security advantage because services that generate integrated addresses need no access to wallet. In contrast, to generate a subaddress, one needs a private view key. No shared counter is necessary to generate integrated address. This allows individual services to independently generate integrated addresses w/o synchronizing on a common sequence. In contrast, subaddresses are generated sequentially, and so the sequence (the counter or index) is a coupling point between the wallet and all services that need to generate the address. Back to integrated addresses, note that embedded payment IDs are 64-bit. This means the space is large enough that one can simply generate them randomly and reliably assume uniqueness. In very specific scenarios, preparation effort to monitor a very huge number of subaddresses, could became an issue.

Learn for what you are being paid \u00b6 By providing a unique subaddress for each anticipated payment you will know for what you are being paid. This use case overlaps with integrated addresses. Subaddresses are generally prefered for reasons outlined below. Prevent payer from linking your payouts together \u00b6 To prevent the payer from linking your payouts together simply generate a new subaddress for each payout. This way specific service (like anonymous exchange) that sends you Monero won't (easilly) know it is you again receving Monero. The exception to this is when a service (or group of colluding services) decides to actively attack you, one address at the time, with the so-called Janus attack , which risks them losing funds. If you need perfect unlinkability of your receivables, the only solution remains to use a separate seed (separate Monero wallet). Also, note it won't help if you have an account with the service. Then your payouts are already linked in the service database, regardless of Monero. Group funds into accounts \u00b6 Accounts are a convenience wallet-level feature to group subaddresses under one label and balance. You may want to organize your funds into accounts like \"cash\", \"work\", \"trading\", \"mining\", \"donations\", etc. As accounts are only groupings of subaddresses, they themselves do not have an address. Accounts are deterministically derived from the root private key along with subaddresses. Accounts are similar to subaccounts in your classic bank account. There is a very important difference though. In Monero funds don't really sit on accounts or public addresses. Public addresses are conceptually a gateway or a routing mechanism. Funds sit on transactions' unspent outputs. Thus, a single transaction can - in principle - aggregate and spend outputs from multiple addresses (and by extension from multiple accounts). The CLI or GUI wallet may not directly support creating such transactions for simplicity. In short, think of accounts as a soft grouping of your funds. Why not multiple wallets? \u00b6 The advantage over creating multiple wallets is that you only have a single seed to manage. All subaddresses can be derived from the wallet seed. Additionally, you conveniently manage your subaddresses within a single user interface. Wallet level feature \u00b6 Subaddresses and accounts are a wallet-level feature to construct and interpret transactions. They do not affect the consensus. Data structure \u00b6 Subaddress has a dedicated \"network byte\": Index Size in bytes Description 0 1 identifies the network and address type; 42 - mainnet; 36 - stagenet; 63 - testnet Otherwise the data structure is the same as for the standard address . Generating \u00b6 Each subaddress conceptually has: account index (also known as \"major\" index) subaddress index within the account (also known as \"minor\" index) The indexes are 0-based. By default wallets use account index 0. The indexes are not directly included in the subaddress data structure. Instead, they are used as input to generating subaddress keys. Private view key \u00b6 A per-subaddress scalar m is derived as follows: m = Hs(\"SubAddr\" || a || account_index || subaddress_index_within_account) Where: Hs is a Keccak-256 hash function interpreted as integer and modulo l (maximum edwards25519 scalar) || is a byte array concatenation operator SubAddr is a 0-terminated fixed string (8 bytes total) a is a private view key of the standard address (a 32 byte little endian unsigned integer) account_index is index of an account (a 32 bit little endian unsigned integer) subaddress_index_within_account is index of the subaddress within the account (a 32 bit little endian unsigned integer) Deriving \"sub view keys\" from the main view key allows for creating a view only wallet that monitors the entire wallet including subaddresses. Public spend key \u00b6 The subaddress public spend key D is derived as follows: D = B + m*G Where: B is standard address public spend key m is a per-subaddress scalar that is derived from the private spend key G is the \"base point\"; this is simply a constant specific to edwards25519 Public view key \u00b6 The subaddress public view key C is derived as follows: C = a*D Where: a is a private view key of the standard address D is a public spend key of the subaddress Special case for (0, 0) \u00b6 The subaddress #0 on the account #0 is the standard address . As standard address has different generation rules, this is simply implemented via an if statement. Building the address string \u00b6 The procedure is the same as for the standard address .

However, this only concerns privacy against specific sender and the situation will never get worse than not using subaddresses in the first place. If you need to join funds while preserving maximum privacy do it with individual transactions (one per subaddress). Convenience labels are not preserved when recreating from seed.

If you are a beginner, you don't need this. The end goal You will publicly offer the following services, where xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv is your server IP address. xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18080 - clearnet P2P service (for other nodes) xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18081 - clearnet RPC service (for wallets) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18083 - onion P2P service (for other onion nodes) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18081 - onion RPC service (for wallets connecting over Tor) Why different P2P ports for clearnet and onion? This is a monerod requirement. Broadcasting bad transactions from your IP As with any public data broadcast or relay service, \"bad traffic\" or in this case \"bad transactions\" may appear to originate from your server IP address from an outside observer perspective - even though they really originate from a remote wallet user. This is a potential risk you need to keep in mind. Why run this specific setup? \u00b6 You will be able to connect your desktop and mobile Monero wallets to your own trusted Monero node, in a secure and private way over Tor. Your node will be always ready w/o delays (always synced up, contrary to intermittently running node on a laptop). Serving blocks and transactions in Monero P2P network helps new users to bootstrap and sync up their nodes. It also strenghtens Monero P2P network against DDoS attacks and network partitioning. Open wallet inteface (the \"RPC\") allows anyone to connect their wallets to Monero network through your node. This is useful for beginner users who don't run their own nodes yet. Tor onion for wallet interface is useful for wallet users connecting over Tor because it mitigates Tor exit nodes MiTM risks (which are very real). By connecting wallet to an onion service, no MiTM attack is realistic because within the Tor network connections are end-to-end TLS-ed. Tor onion for P2P network is useful for other full node users as it allows them to broadcast transactions over Tor (using --tx-proxy option). Assumptions \u00b6 You understand basic Linux administration. You seek Monero specific guidance. You have root access to a Linux server with 2GB+ RAM and 120GB+ SSD (or 50GB+ for the pruned node version). This is current for Jan 2021. Some commands assume Ubuntu but you will easily translate them to your distribution. Install Tor \u00b6 Install Tor . Modify /etc/tor/torrc as shown below. Enable tor service with systemctl enable tor and restart it via systemctl restart tor Verify the Tor is up systemctl status tor@default A fresh onion address and corresponding key pair got created for you by the tor daemon in /var/lib/tor/monero/ . You may want to backup these to secure control over your onion address. This happens on restart whenever you add new HiddenServiceDir to torrc config. Monero daemon itself is not necessary at this point. The onion services (AKA hidden services) will just wait until localhost monerod shows up at specified ports 18081 and 18083. /etc/tor/torrc \u00b6 HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/monero HiddenServicePort 18081 127.0.0.1 :18081 # interface for wallet ( \"RPC\" ) HiddenServicePort 18083 127.0.0.1 :18083 # interface for P2P network How Tor onion services work? The tor daemon will simply pass over the traffic from virtual onion port to actual localhost port, where some service is listening (in our case, this will be monerod ). A single onion address can offer multiple services at various virtual ports. We will use this to expose both P2P and RPC monerod services on a single onion. You could host any number of onion addresses at single server or IP address but we won't need that here.

These are for the incoming clearnet connections, P2P and RPC respectively. You do not need to open any ports for Tor. The onion services work with virtual ports. The tor daemon does not directly accept incoming connections and so it needs no open ports. For example, for popular ufw firewall, that would be: ufw allow 18080 /tcp ufw allow 18081 /tcp To verify, use ufw status .

If you are a beginner, you don't need this. The end goal You will publicly offer the following services, where xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv is your server IP address. xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18080 - clearnet P2P service (for other nodes) xxx.yyy.zzz.vvv:18081 - clearnet RPC service (for wallets) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18083 - onion P2P service (for other onion nodes) yourlongv3onionaddress.onion:18081 - onion RPC service (for wallets connecting over Tor) Why different P2P ports for clearnet and onion? This is a monerod requirement. Broadcasting bad transactions from your IP As with any public data broadcast or relay service, \"bad traffic\" or in this case \"bad transactions\" may appear to originate from your server IP address from an outside observer perspective - even though they really originate from a remote wallet user. This is a potential risk you need to keep in mind.","title":"Running Monero Open Node + Tor Onion"},{"location":"running-node/open-node-tor-onion/#why-run-this-specific-setup","text":"You will be able to connect your desktop and mobile Monero wallets to your own trusted Monero node, in a secure and private way over Tor. Your node will be always ready w/o delays (always synced up, contrary to intermittently running node on a laptop). Serving blocks and transactions in Monero P2P network helps new users to bootstrap and sync up their nodes. It also strenghtens Monero P2P network against DDoS attacks and network partitioning. Open wallet inteface (the \"RPC\") allows anyone to connect their wallets to Monero network through your node. This is useful for beginner users who don't run their own nodes yet. Tor onion for wallet interface is useful for wallet users connecting over Tor because it mitigates Tor exit nodes MiTM risks (which are very real). By connecting wallet to an onion service, no MiTM attack is realistic because within the Tor network connections are end-to-end TLS-ed. Tor onion for P2P network is useful for other full node users as it allows them to broadcast transactions over Tor (using --tx-proxy option).","title":"Why run this specific setup?"},{"location":"running-node/open-node-tor-onion/#assumptions","text":"You understand basic Linux administration.

The tor daemon will simply pass over the traffic from virtual onion port to actual localhost port, where some service is listening (in our case, this will be monerod ).

proofs. There is no way you can just "plug in" Bulletproofs anywhere in Bitcoin.</p> <p>Perhaps you are talking about confidential transactions (CT). This is a technique to permit a public ledger that makes the amounts hidden while still permitting everyone to verify the balances adds up. If that sounds like magic, that's because it is.</p> <p>CT rely on zero-knowledge proofs. They could use Bulletproofs. They could also use other types of zero-knowledge proofs (there are several, zk-SNARKS is the well known, each with their own trade-offs). Certainly the invention of Bulletproofs made CT more accessible.</p> <p>However... CT is still very different from how Bitcoin works right now. There is no obvious way to integrate them. My best hope would be using something like an extension block, where you can have coins on the "legacy" side or coins on the confidential side - with explicit operations to move them between the two.</p> <p>However, that is far from simple, and AFAIK nobody is really working on it. Much as I love this technique and would be very excited to see it in Bitcoin, it's unrealistic to think that it will be usable anytime soon there.</p> <p>Every system must lack at least one of unconditional soundness and unconditional blindness.

-Pieter Wuille on CT:
-
-In a system that uses CT, if someone finds a break in the fundamental security of elliptic curve cryptography (ECC), he can print money. Worse, because the amounts are all private, he can do so undetectably. That's an existential threat for a currency which has controlled inflation as prime goal.
-
-Such a break would be dangerous for Bitcoin (even without CT) regardless, as it relies on ECC for protecting against theft. However, Bitcoin can migrate to use a different signature scheme if necessary. It would be chaotic, but not necessarily pose an existential risk.
-
-There are people who agree with this perspective. It's a mathematical fact that any privacy system that hides amounts and is built on top of ECC will at least have one of the properties below:
-
-    An ECC break will permit printing money undetectaby.
-
-    An ECC break will permit deanonymizing amounts in the historical chain.
-
-So we are faced with a choice between those two regardless if we want better privacy. Some people believe the second is worse than the first, and choosing the first actually allows for more efficient technology. This is a choice that Zcash, Monero, Grin, all make. CT with Bulletproofs would do the same.
-
-However, regardless of your own opinion in this matter, Bitcoin's evolution is a large collaborative process, where such fundamental changes need buy-in from large parts of the ecosystem. My fear is that the question of giving up the ability to exactly audit the monetary supply is going to make it hard to make CT acceptable.
-
-Furthermore, there are other challenges. CT makes transactions larger, slower to verify, and poses a very significant engineering challenge to incorporate into Bitcoin without breaking backward compatibility.

(ECC), he can print money. Worse, because the amounts are all private, he can do so undetectably. That's an existential threat for a currency which has controlled inflation as prime goal.</p> <p>Such a break would be dangerous for Bitcoin (even without CT) regardless, as it relies on ECC for protecting against theft. However, Bitcoin can migrate to use a different signature scheme if necessary. It would be chaotic, but not necessarily pose an existential risk.</p> <p>There are people who agree with this perspective. It's a mathematical fact that any privacy system that hides amounts and is built on top of ECC will at least have one of the properties below:</p> <div class=highlight><pre><span></span><code>An ECC break will permit printing money undetectaby.
-
-An ECC break will permit deanonymizing amounts in the historical chain.
-</code></pre></div> <p>In other words:</p> <div class=highlight><pre><span></span><code>An ECC break means the currency can undetectably be inflated (going forward).
-
-An ECC break means the ledger&#39;s history can retroactively be deanonymized (goin backward).
-</code></pre></div> <p>So we are faced with a choice between those two regardless if we want better privacy. Some people believe the second is worse than the first, and choosing the first actually allows for more efficient technology. This is a choice that Zcash, Monero, Grin, all make. CT with Bulletproofs would do the same.</p> <p>However, regardless of your own opinion in this matter, Bitcoin's evolution is a large collaborative process, where such fundamental changes need buy-in from large parts of the ecosystem. My fear is that the question of giving up the ability to exactly audit the monetary supply is going to make it hard to make CT acceptable.</p> <p>Furthermore, there are other challenges. CT makes transactions larger, slower to verify, and poses a very significant engineering challenge to incorporate into Bitcoin without breaking backward compatibility.</p> <p>++++</p> <blockquote> <p>Also, is there any possible system that can have unconditional soundness and privacy at the same time (something other than ECC obviously)?</p> </blockquote> <p>No, that's mathematically impossible.</p> </article> </div> </div> </main> <footer class=md-footer> <div class="md-footer-meta md-typeset"> <div class="md-footer-meta__inner md-grid"> <div class=md-footer-copyright style="margin: auto;"> <a href=http://bumz4sduzxzlobbgzy5fiufdflg3mo2jyecdwdx5rphrqldms7wlmiid.onion/ >Tor onion version</a> &nbsp; | &nbsp; <a href=https://qertoip.com/ >contact</a> &nbsp; | &nbsp; © 2021 MoneroDocs under <a href=https://opensource.org/licenses/MIT>MIT</a> &nbsp; | &nbsp; built w/ <a href=https://www.mkdocs.org/ >mkdocs</a> and <a href=https://squidfunk.github.io/mkdocs-material/ >squidfunk/material</a> </div> </div> </div> </footer> </div> <script src=../../assets/javascripts/vendor.93c04032.min.js></script> <script src=../../assets/javascripts/bundle.83e5331e.min.js></script><script id=__lang type=application/json>{"clipboard.copy": "Copy to clipboard", "clipboard.copied": "Copied to clipboard", "search.config.lang": "en", "search.config.pipeline": "trimmer, stopWordFilter", "search.config.separator": "[\\s\\-]+", "search.placeholder": "Search", "search.result.placeholder": "Type to start searching", "search.result.none": "No matching documents", "search.result.one": "1 matching document", "search.result.other": "# matching documents", "search.result.more.one": "1 more on this page", "search.result.more.other": "# more on this page", "search.result.term.missing": "Missing"}</script> <script>

This wouldn't be end of the world though, as most users would link the outputs anyway when spending from the wallet. </p> <p>In Monero, stealth address reuse leads to lose of funds. If sender re-uses stealth address, then recipient will only be able to claim one of the payments. See <a href=/cryptography/asymmetric/key-image>key image</a> to learn why this is the case. Practically, to re-use stealth address, sender would have to manually craft a malicious transaction.
