Daily close and perpetual volume across tracked exchanges
Monero is a proof-of-work cryptocurrency built for private payments, hiding senders, receivers and amounts by default through ring signatures, stealth addresses and confidential transactions. Several centralised exchanges have removed XMR spot pairs under regulatory pressure, so perpetual futures are one of the simpler ways to take a leveraged long or short on the coin. Traders also use XMR perps to hedge holdings they keep in self-custody without selling them on-chain.
Regulatory headlines move this market more than most. News of delistings, privacy-coin rules or new listings can trigger sharp repricing, and liquidations build quickly after long quiet spells. Open interest is spread unusually widely, with Hyperliquid holding positions comparable to Binance despite trading less, while Bybit and KuCoin carry sizeable books too. Compare rates on the funding rates page, since a gap between CEX and DEX funding often shows which side is crowded.

Monero is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency launched in 2014 that hides transaction details by default. It uses ring signatures to mask senders, stealth addresses to protect receivers and RingCT to conceal amounts. It runs on proof of work with the RandomX algorithm, which is designed to keep mining accessible on ordinary CPUs.

Some exchanges have delisted Monero because its default privacy makes transactions hard to trace, which conflicts with anti-money-laundering rules in several jurisdictions. Delistings have mostly hit spot markets. Each announcement can move XMR sharply, and perps traders often position around these headlines.
Monero makes every transaction private by default, while Zcash lets users choose between transparent and shielded addresses. Both are privacy coins with different cryptography, as Zcash relies on zero-knowledge proofs. Regulatory news about privacy coins tends to hit both, so traders often watch ZEC perps alongside XMR.

No, Monero has a small permanent tail emission instead of a hard cap. Its main emission curve ended in 2022, and since then each block pays a fixed reward that keeps miners paid while the inflation rate slowly shrinks. Unlike Bitcoin, XMR has no halving events for traders to price in.
XMR perpetual futures are derivatives contracts that track the price of XMR and never expire. Instead of settling on a date, they use a funding rate to stay close to the spot price. You can go long or short with leverage without holding any XMR.
Funding is a payment between longs and shorts. When XMR perps trade above the index price, funding is positive and longs pay shorts. When they trade below it, shorts pay longs. Most exchanges settle every 8 hours and some, including Hyperliquid, settle every hour.

Coinperps does not give trading advice. Funding, open interest, the long/short ratio and liquidations show how other traders are positioned, but crowded positioning can last longer than expected. Size positions so a liquidation would not hurt you.
