Monetary network effects are extremely unforgiving. There will be one dominant form of money.

Bitcoin has privacy on L2 & none of the risk of inflation bugs on L1.

Bitcoin has hundreds of billions worth of deployed infrastructure all over the world. Some if which is being used to boostrap & load balance new & existing energy grids.

The lack of hard forks means that the network is more resistant to negative changes & bugs. The foundation of a new global financial system must be rock solid.

Monero has larger scaling problems when it comes to transaction size & the cost of verification.

1 & 3 are arguably adoption related, but I don't think they are things that can just be waved away.

The only portion of Bitcoins economic activity relevant to it's value prop exists on black markets. Any transactions taking place on white markets are subject to the rules of a central authority so undermines the entire point.
