What holding it gets you
Monero
Pays for every use of its network
Every transaction on its network pays a fee in it. That is the built-in reason anyone needs it.
- Every transaction on its network pays a fee in it
That is all a market cap is: today's price times the coins in public hands. It moves every time the price does. It says what buyers are paying, not what the coin is worth.
Monero is a digital currency built to keep who sent money, who received it, and how much was sent hidden from public view.
Problem it says it solves: private payments. 11 coins we have checked say the same; together they are worth $39,934,997,805.
