Monero climbs to $644, leaving it about 24 percent short of January's record
Select what genuinely interests you. Your picks feed directly into our editorial planning. Monero traded between $643.65 and $648.74 on the morning of October 22, 2026. Over 24 hours the privacy coin gained 9.9 to 11.9 percent depending on the data provider, making it the strongest mover among the 25 largest crypto assets. One further point is documented: despite that jump the price still sits 18.9 percent below the all-time high of $797.14 that Monero reached on January 14, 2026. Our assessment follows further down. The distance to that high says more about the situation than the daily percentages, and for investors in Europe a different question decides the actual gain anyway: where the trade can still be executed.
