i read a lot of monero here atm, here's my little story: sold 10 btc two days ago, had to go through a kyc hell (as the non-kyc market is dead/never worked for bigger amounts) ... bitcoin has become part of the surveillance state, sad but true

This isn't because Bitcoin is captured, it's because the economy is captured. You only need fiat because the economy is being gated by fiat.

It is because BTC is transparent and not fungible.

Transparency is critical to the adoption of Bitcoin.

Transparency is stupid when you can have anonymity.

That's a 12 year old child's level of analysis.

Please, explain

I agree with you, but reliable transactional privacy is critical to not enslaving ourselves.

Preventing governments from corruption is also critical.

This is why bitcoin has a anonymity set delta that favours the bottom of the pyramid.
