Monero's privacy appeal is making a comeback. XMR just smashed through $596 this morning, marking a fresh all-time high. The weekly surge? Nearly 34%. What's driving it? Privacy tokens are getting serious attention again as users reconsider anonymity features in their crypto strategies. Whether it's regulatory pressure elsewhere or genuine demand renaissance, Monero's price action tells the story—the privacy narrative isn't dead, it's just shifting.

34% weekly increase, but it depends on whether it's genuine demand or another round of speculative funds. We've seen several privacy coin booms in the past, but in the end? They couldn't escape the fate of a correction. Where is the supply line? Retail investors need to carefully consider the risks of following the trend and taking over.
