Monero rises 7.02% this week

Highlights

Monero rose 7.02% over the past week to $556.7, maintaining a strong bullish long-term trend.
The price action is consolidating above key support at $542.35 and just below immediate resistance at $558.07.
Forecasts see an 80% probability of gains within a projected range of $508.39 to $643.51 for the coming week.

Hacking fallout and perpetual inflows boost sentiment amid security focus

Recent weeks saw Monero's market value jump as privacy and self-custody themes gained traction following the $351 million Bitget hack, according to TechBullion, with new inflows into perpetual futures driving sentiment for the coming week. Perpetual funding rates and volumes surged, AMBCrypto noted, highlighting institutional interest despite the lack of regulated Monero investment vehicles — a contrast to Zcash's ETF launch. Continued focus on security and privacy remains a key catalyst as the week unfolds.

Momentum remains robust as price consolidates below resistance

The daily chart reveals a sustained move higher with a firm trend, underpinned by a trending structure and very strong momentum. MACD is firmly bullish with a value of 27.37, indicating robust upside pressure, while ADX at 51 confirms powerful trend strength. Immediate resistance is marked by the Ichimoku Kijun at $558.07, with nearby support at $542.35; price is sitting just beneath resistance and not far above key support, consolidating at the lower end of the recent range.

Upside bias prevails for next week as support holds above key level

Next week, the forecasted range is $508.39 to $643.51. There is a very high probability (more than 80%) of an increase and a very low probability (less than 20%) of a decrease. The base case sees Monero holding and building above support near $542.35. A sustained move above $558.07 may open a test of the upper end of the expected range, while a drop below $542.35 would warn of a deeper retracement toward $508.39.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, highlights Monero’s strong 7% advance this week as buyers capitalize on renewed attention to privacy coins and ETF-driven capital shifts. He notes that, following the $351 million Bitget hack and rising institutional interest in security themes, inflows into XMR futures have intensified — even without a regulated investment vehicle. The analyst sees a robust technical structure, with daily MACD at 27.37 and ADX at 51 confirming powerful upside momentum. With immediate resistance at $558.07 and support at $542.35, Karapetjanc expects the bullish trend to persist, projecting a high probability of testing the upper side of the $508.39–$643.51 weekly range. "Momentum and institutional focus remain strong, so I expect Monero to build higher this week as long as $542.35 support holds."

Previously it was reported that Monero was exhibiting strong bullish momentum despite facing regulatory and security challenges. The current analysis adds a new dimension by highlighting heightened institutional interest and shifting capital flows, with the prevailing scenario hinging on Monero holding key support at $542.35 for further upside potential.
