Because why not?
Might come in handy if you know how to do it for future projects

Alpine based images are significantly smaller than other images.
Migrating to an Alpine based image would decrease the footprint of this image.

Using a multi stage dockerfile results in an image that goes from (on quay) 83.9MB to 19.8MB.
Uncompressed, it goes from 234MB to 50.6MB.

The difference is that XMRig is built on docker build instead of on runtime.

If anyone would like to comment regarding the benefits on this, that would be appreciated.
I like that the image is significantly smaller, however I'm not certain regarding the performance hit.

quay.io/rblaine95/monero_xmrig:latest - larger image, compile on runtime
quay.io/rblaine95/monero_xmrig:tiny - smaller image, compile on build
