What is XMR?

XMR is the native cryptocurrency that powers the Monero blockchain, which is a network focused on privacy. The network appeared in 2014 and is designed to be a decentralised, privacy-oriented financial technology that allows users to hide their transaction details. Unlike the traditional feature of blockchain technology that offers a transparent ledger, Monero's blockchain was designed to be exactly the opposite. It's opaque by nature, which allows transactions performed on the chain to be hidden from public scrutiny. Information, like the sender and receiver's identity, the amount sent or received, etc., are all hidden by disguising the participants' addresses.

Monero price history

Monero was launched in 2012, and XMR price history began when it started trading in exchanges for around $2. The price fell shortly after, trading below the $1 mark from September 2014 to August 2016, before it grew rapidly to set a new high at around $15 one month after. XMR's price continued to rise through the end of 2016 and into 2017. In August 2017, the price peaked again at a new high above $150, then retreated to around $80 before continuing with its astounding growth. By December, XMR had reached a new all-time again above $470, surpassing predictions from experts around the world. After that blistering pace, XMR finally lost steam and traded lower to find support at around $70. During the bull run in 2021, XMR's value was revived, and it set a new all-time high again at $517 in May. 

Monero price prediction

Monero is a unique network that provides increased privacy and security for its users. It's particularly attractive to users and businesses who prioritise confidentiality. With the continually increasing desire for private transactions among people in general, there could be increased adoption of the Monero network, and this will likely see higher XMR future prices.
