It's true that xmr and eth are very correlated recently and I am not sure how to explain this. A sell wall is up it seems that someone wants the price to stay around like 240k to 280k sats.

BTC hedging flows -> 95% ETH, 1% XMR.  ETH profit flows -> 10-15% XMR (note XMR serious ramp began when ETH profit-taking began, 3/3).  Profit taking + short selling -> XMR price down now, up later, volatility up overall.  Traders happy, investors frequently annoyed, sometimes overjoyed.
