Monero (XMR) traded at $406.49 on August 21, 2026, a decline of 2.44% over the prior 24 hours. The daily pullback came against a backdrop of broader crypto market fluctuations, trimming some of the asset's recent momentum.

Despite the single-day dip, XMR posted a gain of 3.54% over the trailing seven days, suggesting underlying demand remained intact across the weekly timeframe. The more telling figure came from the 30-day window, where Monero advanced 15.83%, marking a substantial move for the privacy-focused cryptocurrency.

Monero's market capitalization stood at $7.85 billion as of the report date, reflecting its continued position among the larger digital assets by total value. The market cap figure accounts for the full circulating supply priced at current levels.

The daily decline of 2.44% represents a modest retracement within what has otherwise been a strong monthly run. Whether the near-term softness persists or the monthly trend reasserts itself remains to be seen in subsequent sessions.
