How will decentralized exchanges impact coins like Monero?

Looking to mine, can you give some details/info/links (that aren't dead)?

This is Monero website. You have there also links to IRC, slack, Telegram, where you can get fastest answers. But since you are on this forum you could read and ask in this thread:

A new Monero Q&A site has just been created on Stack Exchange, already with several hundred questions
Blockchain, Aug. 9, 2016 / Monero joins Bitcoin and Ethereum as the 3rd blockchain based currency or consensus network on Stack Exchange. Stack Exchange is the largest network of websites for software developers and users to find, ask, and answer their technical questions. Stack Overflow alone serves tens of millions professional and novice programmers each month. The entire Stack Exchange Network has expanded to cover 150+ topics including Cryptography, Economics, Open Source and Project Management.
Monero is a crypto currency that is not based on the Bitcoin codebase and seeks to be the leader in privacy, security, and scalability. All Monero transactions are cryptographically untraceable and unlinkable, and there is no separate "clear" token. This enables end users to trust Monero as a private store of value and as a medium of exchange that is impervious to blockchain analysis or miner censorship.
Developers building privacy-aware or privacy-centric applications will benefit from Monero's private-by-default approach and will appreciate the small and simple metadata storage area (tx_extra) available in every transaction. Additionally, they will benefit from the standard and uncomplicated cryptography based on Daniel J. Bernstein's Curve25519 EC curve as well as EdDSA signatures.
Those building pegged off-chain or sidechain systems needn't worry about on-chain limitations, as Monero's dynamic block size algorithm grows and shrinks the block size limit based on the on-chain demand. Peg as much back to the Monero blockchain as you need!
Monero Stack Exchange is a community-run question and answer site for developers and users of the secure, private and untraceable cryptocurrency Monero. Experts available to answer questions will include PhD mathematicians from Monero Research Lab and many of the developers who have directly contributed to the Monero source-code repository.

Why is an anonymous currency important?
I've heard that side-chains make altcoins redundant?
First question: Why is a private currency important?I've heard that side-chains make altcoins redundant?
Second question: sidechains will make the price of an altcoin pegged to the price of bitcoin. Granted, this is already the case, but this is conjonctural (temporary). With sidechains, this will be structural (permanent).
test1.bin is the name of my wallet, aka the name i provided when i create it. So user will replace it with his current wallet name.
And "./" stands for current directory im in.
This argument take a filename with his path, so i could use "--wallet-file /home/netmonk/bitmonero/wallet.bin" for exemple, meaning i use the wallet.bin wallet file located in the /home/netmonk/bitmonero/ subdirectory.
and also as shorter command line argument 
Updated; thanks. Do you confirm the quote below?Code:
./simplewallet --daemon-address xmr1.coolmining.club:5012 --wallet-file ./test1.bin

Change --wallet-file with the name of your wallet (extension included)
Also, what does ./test1.bin stands for?You should create an openalias donate.coolmining.club
Q: How to use a remote node?
A: if you don't have the 6-8 Gb of RAM presently needed to comfortably use your computer whilst synchronising the blockchain with bitmonerod, you can use a remote node, like hegemoon's node. This means you don't have to run bitmonerod anymore (this does negatively affect decentralisation, but not much)
For Linux:
Change wallet.bin accordingly. The code above assumes your working directory (use pwd or ls to check) is the one where both your wallet and your simplewallet binary are located.
The daemon host and port are hegemoon's, but you can use another one.
Tip1
You can install then use rlwrap to cycle through commands on the Linux version (no need for this in the Windows version)
Tip2
To be sure to always be on the right directory for launching simplewallet, just add a command to go to the right directory
Tip3
You can combine both:

Im the admin of this server, so its better right now to use the fqdn name : xmr1.coolmining.club, instead of the IP 88.151.101.22 as far as i can switch ip if server has problem
and also
Code:
./simplewallet --daemon-address xmr1.coolmining.club:5012 --wallet-file ./test1.bin
What version of simplewallet implements openalias?
A: 0.8.8.5
What version of simplewallet implements openalias? I'm on 0.8.8.3 (just waiting for the next version to upgrade).
I tried sending to donate.monero.cc and i get an error:
I tried sending to donate.monero.cc and i get an error:
Code:
[wallet 47Vmj6]: transfer 3 donate.monero.cc 1
Error: wrong address: donate.monero.cc
openalias is working with simplewallet.
I must have missed that Missive 
How do I create an alias for my XMR address?
Regarding the favourite DNS registrar, I swear exclusively by Gandi.net and not (only) because they are French. Because the founders are longtime active proponents of a libre Internet and the new acquirer follows the same ideals. Plus their No Bullshit policy and it this is not enough, read this article about why Gandi matters.
