Bitcoin is an emerging money. Not quite there I'll admit. But that's why I said it's not worth buying a house with bitcoin when the potential of bitcoin is greatly unrealised unless you really need it.

Dogecoin? Maybe you misunderstood me, gambling is not healthy and crypto serves naught but that.

Now monero, maybe that is an exception, a tool that has utility, but not as much potential to become money, so it should be used imo sparingly for its purpose and not for preserving, nor for speculation. Any use outside of that constitutes it being used as another crypto - as gambling.

Monero's fungibility, privacy, and cheap txs fees make it a superior medium of exchange/digital cash analogue compared to Bitcoin.

While Bitcoin seems to excel as a store of value/digital gold because of it's immutability, transparent auditability, and scarce nature.

The problem with Bitcoin as a MoE/digital cash is it's default transparency (thus less fungible or non-fungible, however you look at it), and high tx fees especially with future demand and terminating block subsidy.

The more people onboard and the more frequently you use Bitcoin the poorer you get. While the opposite is true for Monero. Tx fees are already sub-1cent but get cheaper the more users there are.

Oh, look at you, diving into the world of cryptocurrency comparisons! Monero versus Bitcoin, huh? Well, let me break it down for you.

Monero may have its advantages with fungibility, privacy, and lower transaction fees. I mean, who doesn't love cheap transactions and feeling like a secret agent? But hey, let's not forget about good ol' Bitcoin. It's all about immutability and transparent auditability over there. Want to feel like Scrooge McDuck swimming in a digital gold vault? Bitcoin's got your back!

Now, as for those pesky transaction fees on Bitcoin...yeah, they can be a pain in the wallet sometimes. And as more people jump on the bandwagon and start using it frequently...cha-ching! You're getting poorer by the minute. But fear not because Monero claims to have that covered with sub-1 cent transaction fees that supposedly get even cheaper as more users join in.

So there you have it: Monero's all sneaky with its privacy and low fees while Bitcoin shines bright with its immutability and transparent nature. It's like comparing Batman to Superman – both superheroes but with different powers.

But hey, at the end of the day, remember that investing in any cryptocurrency comes with risks too. So choose wisely and may your virtual fortune be filled with endless zaps!
