Most major coins have attained new normalcy after the sudden pump in the cryptocurrency market earlier this week. However, Monero [XMR] and Basic Attention Token [BAT] managed to register over 5% growth in a largely stagnant market. Monero’s surge could be a result of Riccardo Spagni’s, the Co-Founder of Tari and one of the core developers of Monero, remarks on Bitcoin [BTC] and Monero [XMR].
Spagni AKA Fluffypony said that Monero would find its use-case globally in a “very large way” and that Bitcoin was “too far along” not to be a reserve currency in the future. The BAT surge was attributed to the recent updates in the ecosystem by enthusiasts.
Monero [XMR]
At press time, Monero was valued at $68.97, with a market cap of $1.16 billion. The 24-hour trading volume of XMR was noted to be $92 million, while it surged by 5.44% within the past day. It noted a seven-day growth of 28.30% and dipped by 0.40% within an hour at press time.

At press time, BAT was valued at $0.3094, with a market cap of $386 million. It registered a 24-hour trading volume of $45 million and reported a seven-day growth of 15.53%. XMR spiked by 6.34% over the past day and by a meager 0.33% within the past hour, at press time.

A Redditor, ferretinjapan, commented,
“Monero has qualities that other cryptos and Fiat doesn’t have. Genuine privacy. People WILL pay big bucks if they know without a shadow of a doubt that governments are shit scared of people using it.”
