            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Domestic Monero is a <strong>Telegram Mini App</strong> for peer-to-peer <strong>Monero (XMR)</strong> trading. Buyers and sellers meet in the app, agree on terms, and complete trades with platform-assisted <strong>multisig escrow</strong> — not through a custodial exchange that holds your keys.</p>

<p>Telegram is the entry point: you open the official bot <a href="https://t.me/domestic_monero_bot/app" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" class=""><code>@domestic_monero_bot</code></a> and launch the Mini App from there. There is no separate “support” account — message the bot only.</p>
