Years of steadily climbing coffee prices have some in this country of coffee lovers upending their habits by nixing café visits, switching to cheaper brews or foregoing it altogether.
Coffee prices in the U.S. were up 18.3% in January from a year ago, according to the latest Consumer Price Index released on Friday. Over five years, the government reported, coffee prices rose 47%.
Virtually all coffee consumed in the U.S. is imported. Though tariffs affected some imports of coffee in 2025, they ultimately were removed. Climate issues — drought in Vietnam, heavy rain in Indonesia, and hot, dry weather in Brazil — are blamed for reducing yields of coffee crops and driving up global prices.
So coffee prices have remained entirely flat when priced in Monero. Got it. And yes, you can buy coffee with Monero.
Can you monero monero?
You think this is flat?
I use the 6 month simple moving average when calculating prices and that has been nowhere but up and since the price of coffee in fiat fed notes has been up as well. That means that it has been relatively flat by comparison.
Do you think retailers would be using the same math to price things in monero?
