The goal of this thesis is to map usage habits of Monero cryptocurrency users and miners from both technological as well as security view. Another goal is to create a detailed user guideline for user-friendly and secure usage of the Monero cryptocurrency including key management and backup strategy. For miners, the goal is to implement an automated deployment of mining rigs using one of the popular configuration management tools.
To find a reply to such research questions and to get real world usage data, I conducted a Monero User Research survey in which 113 participants shared their habits regarding Monero cryptocurrency. Based on the survey results and IT industry practices I proposed a Monero usage and storage best practices guide that covers the key generation, wallet management, and a secure backup scheme.

Aside from clients, key parts of Monero are also miners and Monero network itself. As miners are the ones who verify transactions and keep the network running, it was important to describe the mining software and categories which are later used in the Monero Miners Research survey. In the survey, 60 miners shared technical information about their current mining setups. This was later reflected in the proposed guide for designing secure mining environment in which the automation was the main aspect.

When interpreting Monero user and miners research results, the following study limitations should be taken into account:

\item Self-selection bias of respondents in the dataset.
\item Reporting bias of responses in the dataset.
\item Limited time and reach of the questionnaires in the community that has participated in this research.
