"Man, you guys better hope bitcoiners and devs don't fix the current privacy issues. Y'all would be fucked."
I’m waiting patiently to embrace the day this happens… I won’t hold my breath tho…
Discussion
How long can you hold your breath?
I can go for almost 2.5 min.
There are exactly zero mainchain privacy improvements on the horizon.
all the interest is in ecash and LN.
which is fine, but its either extremely difficult to use or custodial.
1st principles or GFY.
Silent payments are coming along nicely.
We already have lightning, fedi and cashu
Not too far off my man.
Ln is ok at best, I won’t use fedi or ecash for anything other then testing…
We shall see how good SP is and how many wallets integrate it.
My opinion privacy should be default and transparent only if wanted.
Your opinion of 100% private doesn't work or solve accounting problems that exist globally.
Bitcoin was designed to have a public ledger, solving the need for centralized ledger and control. That's the point. It solved the problem for the first time in history.
Monero is about trusting the code. There is no way to audit the trail of someone who just sent money to a 3rd party. It may be good for some things, but for audits, reserves, corporations, bank settlements, title/property transactions, etc...
All Bitcoin transactions must not be private, or these issues still exist.

oh and when was the last time you personally audited the Bitcoin supply?
(and i dont mean just TRUST the output of gettxsetoutinfo)
The VAST majority of Bitcoiners also "trust the code"
