Monero rose 11.19 percent to $575.12 on Friday evening and into the early hours of Saturday, which puts it among the strongest assets in the top 25. For investors in Germany, though, the decisive question is not how far the price still runs, but whether they will be able to sell their holdings through a European exchange at all in two years' time. The answer sits in the text of the EU anti-money-laundering regulation, and it is more precise than most headlines suggest. This article places the price jump in context and then works through the points you can actually check as a holder: the trading route, custody, the holding period and the duty of proof towards the tax office.

Monero is a long way from its own all-time high all the same: the peak of $797.73 dates from January 14, 2026, and 27.91 percent are currently missing to get back there. Anyone reading the jump as a breakout to new records is confusing a vigorous counter-move with an all-time high. The comparison with the market as a whole is what makes the move interesting. Bitcoin gained 6.39 percent to $81,271 in the same 24-hour window, and 16.9 percent over 30 days. Monero comes to 31.5 percent over the monthly window, almost double.

Zcash stood at $1,577.93 in the same call, a gain of 8.58 percent in 24 hours, 34.6 percent over seven days and 177.7 percent over 30 days. Dash came to $63.40, up 4.8 percent on the day and up 100.8 percent over the month. Three assets in the same category rising by double to triple digits within a few weeks are no coincidence but a sector rotation. The trigger lay with Zcash.
