Monero Price Prediction: Privacy Coin Rotation Lifts XMR Above $570

Monero (XMR) has surged back into price discovery, trading near $577 after a 19% daily jump, as capital rotates into privacy coins amid rising regulatory and governance risks elsewhere. Strong volume, a clean daily breakout, and spillover from Zcash’s governance crisis have positioned XMR as the primary beneficiary of renewed demand for censorship-resistant assets in early 2026.
