Community Trust Score Verified 93 % Real Verified 28 votes Updated 38 seconds ago Monero punched above its September peak on Oct. 23, trading near $629 after briefly touching $656 intraday. Bitcoin, meanwhile, slid from an $84,294 open down to $81,483 — sitting uncomfortably close to the $80,000 floor that’s been the market’s main line in the sand for weeks. XMR ’s strength stands out because it is occurring while the broader market is still fragile, with Bitcoin hovering near a level that has acted as an important support zone for weeks.
