interesting... #XMR is not dumping as much as others right now, wonder if that's because the current US political environment has people seeing its value proposition a little more clearly
not quite the same, but the day Russia invaded Ukraine, XMR started a long slow climb which persisted until the next global bloodbath in fiat prices. I've long wondered if that was due to a small but nonzero contingent of Russians (and Ukrainians) taking it up as a way to move value around anonymously while doing things like avoiding sanctions, escaping conscription, etc.
