Monero XMR/USD is an open-source, privacy-oriented cryptocurrency that was initially launched in 2014. 

Its blockchain network was specifically developed to be opaque, which makes transaction details, such as the identity of senders and recipients, as well as the amount of each transaction, fully anonymous.

On April 8, 2022, Monero’s official Twitter account shared their Reuvo Weekly Issue 115, where they discussed some of the latest developments and updates that occurred from March 31 to April 7.

Here, we saw MoneroPay, which is a back-end service for receiving, sending, and tracking XMR payments, get updated to v2.0.0.

XMRig v6.17.0 also came out. Here, we also found an announcement about the Bear Arms N’ Bitcoin 2022 conference, which took place from April 9 to April 10 in Miami, alongside the announcement of MoneroKon 2022 tickets becoming available. 

Additionally, El Monero, which is the Spanish XMR podcast, published episode 21 with Martha Bueno.

Alongside all of this, there are also speculations about entities using Monero as a means of bypassing sanctions which could have boosted the appeal of the token among investors. 

The American research group Brookings also warned that Monero could be used as a part of a sanction-evasion scheme. We also covered how Monero’s value might shift after Biden unveiled Benign crypto oversight.

With all of this in mind, let’s go over how the token performed and what its future holds.
