A few words about $XMR because it's the coin my futures portfolio trades the most.

What I like about Monero is how it was designed. Every transaction hides the sender, the receiver and the amount by default. You don't have to switch anything on, it's just how the network works. Mining runs on RandomX, an algorithm built for ordinary CPUs, so you don't need special hardware to take part.

And the emission never fully stops. Since 2022 every block adds a fixed 0.6 XMR. That's under 1% of supply a year, and the share keeps getting smaller as supply grows. Miners always have a reason to keep the network running, even when fees are low.

Not financial advice. DYOR.
