Genesis network · Experimental prerelease
Privacy should be ordinary.
Monzero is an independent, community-run digital currency built for private transactions, open participation, and CPU-friendly mining.

Live network
A chain you can verify.
Public nodes in Europe and the United States give wallets and miners stable entry points into the Monzero network.

Mining network
Anonymous miner ranking.
Live, opt-in statistics from participating miners. This table is separate from the difficulty-derived network estimate above. No wallet address, IP address, hostname, or hardware identifier is displayed.
| Rank | Anonymous miner | Speed | Blocks found | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|
Statistics are self-reported and miners disappear after three minutes without a heartbeat. A random installation ID is pseudonymized by the server.
Monzero Studio · Local drafts
Shape the asset.
Inspect the intent.
Design fixed-supply tokens, NFTs, collections, and non-custodial swap offers in a guided workspace. Studio builds transparent local drafts today; it cannot submit funds or activate the unaudited asset protocol.

Why Monzero
Built around participation.
Private transactions
Monzero inherits established privacy-focused transaction technology, including ring signatures, stealth addresses, and confidential amounts.
Consumer hardware
RandomX proof of work is designed for general-purpose CPUs, keeping participation open to ordinary computers.
Independent chain
XMZ has its own genesis block, network identity, address prefixes, ports, and monetary policy. It is not Monero.
Join the network
Turn spare CPU time into network security.
Run your own daemon, create a fresh Monzero wallet, and mine directly to an address you control. Solo mining rewards the machine that finds a block; rewards unlock after 60 blocks.
- 1Start the node
./start-monzerod.sh - 2Start the separate miner
./start-monzero-miner.sh YOUR_ADDRESS 1 - 3Open the wallet when needed
./start-monzero-wallet-cli.sh
Windows mining
Start mining and appear in the live statistics.
Use the Windows command-line package from the download section. Extract the complete ZIP before running anything; do not launch files from inside the ZIP.
- 1Start and synchronize the node
Double-click
start-node.bat, allow the Windows Firewall prompt, and leave the window open. The launcher connects tonode.monzero.org:6174and the local RPC listens on127.0.0.1:6175. - 2Create a fresh wallet
Run
start-wallet-cli.bat, create a Monzero-only wallet, and record its recovery seed offline. Never reuse a Monero wallet or seed. - 3Start CPU mining
Open Command Prompt in the extracted folder and run
start-mining.bat YOUR_MONZERO_ADDRESS 2. Replace the address and choose the number of CPU threads you want to use. - 4Enable optional website statistics
Ask the project operator for a miner-stat ingest token and save it as
%APPDATA%\Monzero\miner-stats-token.txt. Runstart-mining.batagain; it starts the reporter automatically, and your anonymous hash rate should appear above within about 60 seconds.
Not appearing? Confirm the node is synchronized and mining is active, then inspect %APPDATA%\Monzero\miner-stats-reporter.log. The token is private: do not post it publicly or place it in a distributable ZIP.
Run stop-mining.bat to stop mining. The website removes a miner after three minutes without a successful heartbeat.
Genesis pre14
Download Monzero
DEX testing status — 12 September 2026: A DEX research GUI is under local testing; the pre14 downloads below do not include that new preview. Real-money DEX trading is unavailable. End-to-end cross-chain settlement, safe refunds and mandatory XMZ fee enforcement are not yet implemented and verified. Demo prices, balances and orders are not live liquidity. Do not send funds to test a DEX order or disclose a wallet seed or private key. Bypassing safeguards could cause permanent loss of funds. Experimental warnings and public testing are not an independent security audit.
Experimental Windows graphical wallet and command-line builds for Windows and Linux x86-64. Packages include the matching node, checksums, protocol whitepaper, release status, and upgrade guidance. The recursively complete source archive contains the exact pinned core commit and submodules.
Unsigned and independently unaudited experimental prerelease software. Pre14 stays on the pre10–pre13 chain; consensus identity and chain rules are unchanged. All 1,305 unit tests and all 20 ctest suites passed on the local Linux build. The Windows CLI and GUI archives were cross-compiled and passed package/manifest checks, but neither has been run on a native Windows host yet. The graphical wallet is built from an older, compatible GUI source commit, not the GUI project's current development tip. Native Windows testing, independent reproduction, signing, sustained live-network observation, and an external audit remain outstanding.

Questions
Before you begin.
Why is my mining balance still zero?
Monzero currently uses solo mining. You receive a coinbase reward only when your machine finds a block; simply hashing does not create a gradual balance. A found reward remains locked for 60 blocks.
Is Monzero the same network as Monero?
No. Monzero is an independent experimental chain with a different genesis block, network ID, ports, address prefixes, ticker, and monetary policy.
Can I reuse my existing seed?
No. Create a new wallet and seed exclusively for Monzero. Reusing keys across forks can seriously damage privacy.
Is this a production release?
No. Genesis pre14 is experimental, unsigned, and unaudited prerelease software. It uses the pre10–pre13 chain and is incompatible with pre9 chain data.
