XMR? You sure this is not a typo? Its currently at like $150 and its peak was maybe $450. I don't think its possible for it to hit $3000 ever. Sure its a privacy coin but there is going to be regulation against privacy coins and it will prevent some exchanges from using it. Look what the US regulators are trying to do now with self-hosted wallet. So this is why I don't think $3000 is possible for XMR.
Pretty ironic that a few hours after I made this post, Bittrex has decided to delist privacy coins. Basically I think there is going to be more regulation in the near future and coins like XMR posses a problem especially when deaing with KYC. What is surprising is that ZEC is still listed at Gemini, however Bittrex has decided to delist it.
The big question is why they are doing it all of a sudden. A few days after SEC sues ripple. I think they were maybe contacted and warned to delist these coins. We will find out in the next few days what happens. If more US based exchanges decide to delist privacy coins then we know that its due to regulations and this is the reason why I don't see it going to $3000 with all these issues.
