XMR: With a significant price surge of about 50%, XMR has become the cryptocurrency with the largest price increase in discussions. The catalyst for this price spike was a major theft of 3,520 bitcoins (approximately $330.7 million). The stolen bitcoins were rapidly laundered and converted to Monero (XMR) through multiple exchanges, triggering strong demand for XMR and a price surge. This event has sparked widespread discussions on the use of privacy coins (such as Monero) in illicit activities, their impact on market liquidity, and regulatory scrutiny.
