Monero (XMR) was once one of the few cryptocurrencies in existence but with the inception of lucrative altcoins, Monero (XMR) quickly became a forgotten coin to many. That is not to say that Monero (XMR) lost its purpose but other shinier projects like Verge (XVG) pulled in privacy enthusiasts from Monero (XMR)âs league. The chart above for XMR/USD shows that Monero (XMR) has performed well against USD for the most part, even after the correction.
