1. Your compeletley visible transactions can be correalated with real world data to discover who you are. That's why anonymity AND privacy both matter.

2. Then build an ASIC for it and take all that money.

3. You audit the same way on Monero as Bitcoin. You run a node and pay no mind. A transparent blockchain doesn't help you if you arent actually taking advantage of it. Every ten minutes you are making sure all input = all outputs? Please. You pay zero attention.

4. Monero is FOSS. Anyone is free to leave or join or make their own network. Everyone is voluntarily choosing to use the latest fork because they value the upgrades. Aren't you guys about free markets?

Imagine the real world worked like that. Everyone was forced to be compatible with old tech like CD players. Na, no one is obligated to accomodate you.

The birthplace of Bitcoin, Darknet Markets, would disagree with you.

I’ll agree with you that it’s a free market and you’re free to do whatever you want.

I’m a bit confused by your graphic though - is this a troll? It seems like Bitcoin has the biggest market share by far, which would support my argument.

Look at the dates between both. A clear trend in Monero's favor. And the latest graph is already two years old. Not bad for a coin with less than 1% of bitcoin's mcap.
