"Several Bitcoiners from Nostr tried paying with Lightning, but it kept bouncing, so they swapped for XMR! And get this: if you ask the top arbitrators and ‘legendary’ bitcointalk.org users (from the link above) what currency they prefer to be paid in, they say XMR. You can argue all you want on X, Reddit, StackerNews, or BitcoinTalk, but in the real world, people just want what really works: Monero. And the loudest critics? They secretly want it too. It’s like an unhappy marriage: you’re dreaming of Monero-chan, but you’re stuck with Bitcoin-wife, forcing a smile and telling everyone how happy you are. A textbook case of life of quiet desperation!"
