Not watching it because the answer is yes, if I wanted to obfuscate my internet transactions I’d go Monero for the extra privacy but it’s a shit store of wealth which is my main use case for Bitcoin.

Admitting it has a use case, rather than dismissing it as a shitcoin, has value.
Paying for a VPN with XMR is nice, too.
Cheers.
It’s one of the few non-BTC cryptocurrencies that has a usecase.
I’m ideological but not stupid, I can see where it fits so if I was gonna spin up a darkweb market tomorrow it would run on XMR but I’d be converting everything other than liquidity into BTC also.
Not opposed to Monero. Just opposed to the clownshoes who think the world should adopt it as the alternative instead of Bitcoin as if every transaction needs XMR levels of privacy.
Of course 🤙🏻
That is the point 👌🏼
why wouldn't you just use cashu.me...
Then you’re deciding to trust the mint not to rug your coins in a way I don’t need to trust XMR
You can run your own mint very easily. More privacy.
So everyone is going to run their own mints and have an anonset of 1? Defeats the whole point of convenience and privacy for ecash.
I'd rather trust my own mint than trust a protocol that hard forks itself on a fairly regular basis.
Global adoption prophecy is mostly a Bitcoin maxi phenomenon. Highly doubt normies will use either in an self-sovereign way.
Fair. Bitcoin is a better SoV. Monero is a better MoE imo.
