Monero has the inflation/validation problem.

For anonymous uncensorable transacting it's cool. Store of long term value is the problem.

On the problem above : It's happening already (Jurisdictional arbitrage) Many German Bitcoiners travel to CzechR./Prague to insert Cash anonomously into BTC-ATMs. That's it.

If they need Euros back they go on Regional BTC-Meetups and Cash out again. All those models have "friction" of course (traveling, price premium compared to registered X-changes...)

But if the friction in the legacy system is way higher, it's worth it. And nothing beats beeing outside the collapsing system.

The costs for the legacy system (enforcement costs) are rising as well.

You see them charging every minor infringement (speeding, parking...) but aren't able to establish basic security (borders, neighborhoods, public transport).

Yes, this is the thing. Anarcho-tyranny, where they pester the peaceful and good-willed, while the violent criminals run wild and the infrastructure crumbles.
