Monero mining is based on a proof-of-work algorithm called CryptoNight. This algorithm was especially designed to be as inmuned to ASIC miners as possible; therefore, it is feasible to mine Monero using consumer CPU and GPU hardware. This is one of the big advantages of Monero over Bitcoin; in terms of mining decentralization, anyone with a PC can start mining Monero straight away and still be able to make some profit without having to break the bank to buy expensive ASIC based mining hardware. In this tutorial, you will learn to mine Monero on Windows and on two flavours of Linux, Fedora and Ubuntu using CPU.
