Monero is actually doing well considering the purge. $XMR cloud contracts never felt a squeeze like $btc contracts did, mining difficulty and number of miners is steady plus market dominance is growing not only in the private sector but over-all. All this put's Monero back in the Top 10 list by market cap and it will likely stay there or move up to top 5 when the dust clears.

It's a good analysis but you know that monero is a private coin and maybe in the future this is a problem for its grow.
Yes 'maybe', privacy coins are my favorite sector and I prefer mining $xmr over others.
