Never said illegal stuff will disappear don't strawman me. I stated a historical fact that the government ban on alcohol deterred about half the population from using alcohol. It would be safe to assume that the government banning bitcoin or any shitcoin would deter people from using it. How many? I don't know.

Regarding the shitcoin monero:

The major "benefit" that people shill monero for is its privacy which clearly is flawed. The reason why bitcoin is simply better is because the network is more secure and the supply is actually scarce. Monero has no fixed supply and it's difficult to run your own node. If monero ever got big enough, it would be easy for government to just take control of it since its blockchain would grow so large ordinary people can't afford to run a node.

Yea and how well did alcohol prohibition go? That shit just gets pushed underground and on black markets. That demand doesn't disappear just because people in suits wrote words on paper.

Dude, respectfully, you don't understand how Monero works. Any bug on the decoy selection algorithm for ring signatures has no effect on hidden amounts and addresses. And it is still probabilistic.

Essentially you are saying because Monero doesn't have perfect privacy, it is broken and we should just use a completely public chain like Bitcoin. The logic doesn't follow.

✅ hidden > ❔ visible, but probabilistic > ❌visible, deterministic

Monero default txns with a bug:

✅amounts

✅addresses

❔inputs/outputs

Bitcoin default txns WITHOUT a bug:

❌amounts

❌addresses

❌input/outputs

Bitcoin coinjoin txns WITHOUT a bug:

❔amounts

❔addresses

❔input/outputs

Even when Monero had that bug (now patched) Monero still offered massively more privacy and anonymity over Bitcoin
