Business Cat assertion that #Monero bros optimize for the wrong threats and usecases is ridiculous.

people need transactional privacy and fungibility with money.

its actually really fucking simple.

yes. Bitcoin *fails enough at privacy* that people are going to Monero.

Monero may also only exist to move the Overton window for Bitcoiners.

that's fine. we will use Bitcoin when we can have private transactions that maintain 1st principles.

Good on nostr:nprofile1qqs9val6td43edk4hmnct5yg4yzv6zqgy4ft7awl8eps9n4qzkja8cgpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uq3wamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wdah8xct5wvhx7un89uq36amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9emkcann9eehqctrv5hsj3pt3x for calling out the confirmation bias.

(and the "if you're so interested in privacy do you run your own email server?" is regular ole horseshit and a sad argument from a supposedly intelligent person)

Although (because?) BusinessCat represents as a maxi tard, albeit a really smart one

and nostr:nprofile1qqs9val6td43edk4hmnct5yg4yzv6zqgy4ft7awl8eps9n4qzkja8cgpremhxue69uhkummnw3ez6ur4vgh8wetvd3hhyer9wghxuet59uq3wamnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3wdah8xct5wvhx7un89uq36amnwvaz7tmwdaehgu3dwfjkccte9emkcann9eehqctrv5hsj3pt3x is good at presenting points in a reasonable and non-inflammatory way

this pod is a good summation of the #Bitcoin #Monero debate

and it better to argue about that than the other dumb shit on nostr this morning

I would say that the world is getting more and more difficult to navigate so surrounding myself with smart people like BusinessCat and having public convos gives us all the best odds of either making the right decisions or quickly adjusting if I’m wrong so I don’t get rekt

Appreciate your comments immensely.

The community benefits by open and visible conversation. Even if it isnt perfectly expressed or we dont get all the viewpoints out there,

just start talking (visibly!) and struggling with nuance. everyone benefits.
