Character & origin

The girl with the M on her heart

二〇一七年から

Monero-chan is the unofficial mascot the Monero community drew for itself. She first showed up in Japan in 2017, as a cool-headed secretary on a site that turned every coin into a girl. Since 2021 the community keeps her alive, paying artists in XMR one commission at a time. No one controls her.

She stands for what the coin does. Where other chains publish every balance and every transfer, Monero hides the sender, the receiver and the amount by default. Monero-chan is that idea with a face: present, confident, and impossible to trace.

NameMonero-chan (モネロちゃん). Community character, no owner.
HairVery long, straight, black, with a bright orange underlayer that shows when she moves.
EyesAmber. The colour of the coin.
OutfitOrange high-collar crop top with the black M, black fingerless elbow sleeves, orange mini skirt, black thigh-highs, orange heels, XMR coin earrings.
LikesCash, night trains, CPUs, takoyaki, anyone who runs their own node.
DislikesBlacklists, KYC forms, cameras that work.
Catchphrase"Nobody sees but me."

    Private by default, no premine.

  2. Crypto Currency Girls

    A Japanese site draws Monero as a poker-faced secretary: "I never leak a client's information."

  3. The art fund opens

    Anons collect XMR to commission her, first at neocities, then as @XMRArtFund.

  4. First paid piece

    mi_me_i's dandelion field, then GIE's beach volleyball and Wild West.

Why Solana?

Public where you buy. Private where you pay.

公開と秘匿

Monero's strength has also been its problem. Every transaction is private, with no way to switch it off, and that is exactly what regulators and big exchanges struggle with.

Zcash took another path: transparent addresses by default, shielded ones when you want them. That optional side lets it stay listed and packaged for institutions. Monero has no transparent side, so it keeps getting pushed out.

On Solana · wrapped

Public XMR

XMR as a wrapped token on Solana. You buy it from any Solana wallet, it trades like any other token, and it carries no privacy-coin label for an exchange to worry about. When you want privacy there, a zero-knowledge pool like Privacy Cash can break the link between wallets.

  • Easy to buy
  • Public liquidity
  • Privacy optional
On Monero · native

Private XMR

Native XMR on its own chain. Ring signatures, stealth addresses and hidden amounts on every transaction, by default. With FCMP++, the ring of 16 grows to the whole chain, so on-chain privacy gets much stronger.

  • Private by default
  • No history, no blacklist
  • Stronger with FCMP++

How $MONEROCHAN plugs into $XMR

  1. Launched on Solana

    Where most on-chain trading happens today: cheap, fast, one wallet away for millions of people who will never open a Monero wallet.

  2. Paired with $XMR

    The pool trades $MONEROCHAN against wrapped $XMR, not SOL. Every buy and every sell moves real XMR liquidity on Solana.

  3. Yield in $XMR

    Trading fees are redistributed to holders in $XMR. Hold the mascot, collect the coin.

  4. Launched on Stonk

    Launched on StonkFun, a launchpad that pairs tokens with real assets instead of SOL, to stay neutral.

One asset. Public liquidity on Solana. Private transactions on Monero.

What to know: a wrapped token is only as good as whoever holds the real XMR behind it or runs the bridge. Check that issuer before buying. Fee yield depends on trading volume and is not guaranteed. On Solana the token is public until you move it through a privacy pool, and it only becomes Monero-private once you redeem it for native XMR. Nothing here is financial advice.

Reference sheet

The classic community turnaround used for every image on this page. Feed it to any image model as a reference.

Monero-chan turnaround reference sheet: front, side and back views

Identity prompt

The text block that keeps her the same person across models. Paste it after your scene description.

Monero-chan: very long straight black hair with a bright orange inner underlayer, amber-orange eyes, orange cropped high-collar top with a white-trimmed black Monero M logo on the chest, black bralette under it, black fingerless elbow sleeves, orange mini skirt with a small Monero logo, black thigh-high stockings, orange heels, tiny orange Monero coin earrings. She must look exactly like the girl in the reference sheet.

Claude Code skill
