This was pretty much me but I still don't hate on Monero I just think any need for it will be gone in a couple years.
This though is the path so many maxis have taken and if that is you just remember it when you bash shitcoiners. Tell them they are wrong, but don't be a dick, unless they are true shills, the be as big a dick as you feel like if that is the case.
As a shitcoin minimalist I can see a place for monero and pirate chain, but I believe that smarter people than me will use Bitcoin to make all other obsolete over time.
It's a lot like the Highlander, there can be only one. 🙂
This is an incredibly accurate visual of the process, one I've gone through myself. I feel like once smart contract functionality is widely adopted on the btc chain, the value prop for eth etc will be lost
Bitcoin hasn't quite replaced Monero yet, if it does there is no need for it
I've yet to encounter a convincing argument as to why Monero doesn't offer superior anonymity compared to Bitcoin.
Consider this: if your life hinged on the absolute anonymity of a single transaction, which cryptocurrency would you instinctively opt for? Perhaps you'd consider tumbling your Bitcoin through a mixer like Whirlpool, distributing it across numerous Unspent Transaction Outputs (UTXOs). However, with recent escalating transaction fees, this approach has become less appealing and considerably complex.
Indeed, Bitcoin is akin to a black hole - its massive gravitational pull will eventually engulf everything in its vicinity. Yet, it's important to remember that, despite its immense potential, Bitcoin isn't a one-size-fits-all solution just yet. Bitcoin will, in my view, eventually excel in the realm of privacy, but as it stands, it hasn't reached that point.
