Monero (XMR) rose 7.4% over the past 24 hours after CoinDesk reported that Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson said the upcoming Midnight protocol “won’t chase” Monero and ZCash users. The comments likely reduced perceived competitive pressure on established privacy coins, supporting a positive move in XMR.
