Please note for anybody watching this video, this is 2018 video and it is quite out of date. You should not use the My Monero wallet. That is not a good recommendation. And it is incorrect about the amount of people that your transaction gets quote unquote mixed with. It’s 16 and there’s no way to change that.

Edit: xmr.to No longer exists to the best of my knowledge.

Here is a video explaining what Monero is in 5 minutes with animations. Good for those who have no clue what cryptocurrency is but want to know.
