XMR made a new high for 2025 as demand slowly returns

The post XMR made a new high for 2025 as demand slowly returns appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Monero (XMR) keeps rising, reaching a new high for 2025. The privacy coin continued to grow, outperforming other assets, as demand returns.  Monero (XMR) is making a return after posting a new peak for 2025 and the highest level for the past 12 months.

There are several specifics around XMR that may cut the rally short.  More than 50% of XMR volumes are on KuCoin and HTX, exchanges that are usually difficult to access for international traders.

The asset is difficult to track.  In the past day of growth, the XMR/ETH pair on KuCoin also showed anomalous activity, with volumes rising by over 274% in a day. The XMR/ETH pair was also highly active at the…
