Monero (XMR) traded at $522.11 on September 8, 2026, posting a 24-hour decline of 1.67% as the privacy-focused cryptocurrency gave back a modest portion of its recent gains.
The short-term pullback extended slightly over the weekly horizon as well, with XMR down 1.22% over the past seven days. Despite the near-term softness, the asset's broader trend remains markedly positive.
Over the trailing 30-day period, Monero surged 37.27%, a gain that has pushed its total market capitalization to $9.58 billion. That monthly advance stands as the dominant feature of XMR's recent price history, dwarfing the modest daily and weekly retreats.
