Monero is a shitcoin:
“Or you can choose to hide amounts like (shielded) Zcash or Monero do; you improve privacy and fungibility, but at the cost of offloading supply soundness guarantees to the correctness of proof and signature constructions.”
Supply soundness is sacrificed for privacy on monero. Just practice privacy on bitcoin and keep the supply soundness. Pretty easy choice.
