The Most Private Monero Phone: GrapheneOS on Pixel 10 (Live Set Up)

Full GrapheneOS install on a Pixel 10, then a Monero wallet over Tor with no Google account ever created — ending with a live duress-PIN wipe. Every step shown.

What this setup does: removes Google from the phone entirely and stops your wallet's network activity from being tied to your IP. What it doesn't do: make you anonymous to the people you transact with, or replace running your own node.

NOTES
— This is not a sponsored video. I bought the phone.
— Buy the Pixel unlocked, direct from Google. Carrier models can't be bootloader-unlocked and this video will not work for you.
— The wallet on camera is a burner. Never show a seed you intend to fund.
— A duress wipe is instant, irreversible, and destroys eSIMs too. Depending on your jurisdiction, wiping a device during a search or investigation can itself carry legal consequences. Know your local law.
— Windows and Mac viewers: the terminal step is Linux-only. Your machines need nothing installed.
