It’s one of the few non-BTC cryptocurrencies that has a usecase.
I’m ideological but not stupid, I can see where it fits so if I was gonna spin up a darkweb market tomorrow it would run on XMR but I’d be converting everything other than liquidity into BTC also.
Not opposed to Monero. Just opposed to the clownshoes who think the world should adopt it as the alternative instead of Bitcoin as if every transaction needs XMR levels of privacy.
