Monero has now held a place on the trending list for 2 consecutive days. The coin ranks 23 today, having moved up 13 positions. It has moved +3.1% since yesterday and +1.5% since last week. The coin is worth $9.70B and traded $114.1M in 24 hours, a ratio of 0.01. Limited history (366 days) narrows the analysis to 6 checks, which come out strong buy. The six-part risk model returns 17 (low), mostly from days on the trending list and exchange coverage.

Only CoinGecko lists it today, so the reading rests on a single source. The list-entry price dates from September 17; the move since then is +0.7%. The month-long picture reads +25.6%. Its market-cap rank is 13 — one of the twenty largest coins by market value. The 50-day average sits +15.0% below the current price. The three-month range puts it -7.0% off the top and +70.2% off the bottom.

Interest and technical structure point the same way — the move has held for 2 days on the list. Note that the reading is based on limited price history.

Questions about Monero

Answered from today's data, regenerated every day

Why is Monero trending today?

Monero appears in the global trending sources and scores 16 out of 100 on the combined trend score, which puts it at rank 23 worldwide today. The score is built from its position in the CoinGecko and CoinMarketCap trending feeds, how many countries list it and whether Binance marks it as hot. It measures attention only — nothing in it reflects the price direction.

Is Monero a buy right now?

This site does not give recommendations. What the data shows: the daily technical model scores 83 out of 100 on 6 checks, which reads as strong buy, while the hype-risk score is 17/100 (low). Those two numbers answer different questions, and a high trending rank is not part of either.

How risky is Monero compared with other trending coins?

Its hype-risk score is 17 out of 100, a low reading. The largest contributors are days on the trending list (2 consecutive days) and exchange coverage. The score is six measures added together and it is recalculated every day, so it moves as the coin ages on the list.

What is the XMR price and how much has it moved?

Monero trades at $515.84 at the last daily close, +3.1% over 24 hours and +1.5% over seven days, +25.6% over thirty. Prices on this site come from the daily close at 00:00 UTC and are not live quotes.

How long has Monero been trending?

It has been on the list for 2 consecutive days, with a best position of 23. Persistence is part of the picture: the longer a coin stays, the less of the risk score comes from novelty.
