Monero (XMR) fell 6.2% to $606.80 on October 23, 2026, after reaching $653.71 earlier the same day, driven mainly by futures market activity rather than spot sales. Open interest in Monero futures varies widely by data source, but a credible adjusted figure is $351 million, representing about 3% of circulating supply. The largest reported figure of $2.16 billion is skewed by one exchange with minimal turnover, making it unreliable. Due to EU regulations, Monero is delisted from German authorized exchanges, pushing trading to decentralized platforms and swap services, which carry higher counterparty risks. Investors should note the high leverage and funding costs in the futures market and the importance of secure custody since no German exchange holds XMR.
