Bitcoin isn’t confused…the observers are.

It’s not trying to be everything to everyone. It’s solving the hardest problem first: absolute scarcity and decentralized trust. That’s the foundation. Every other use case, from Lightning to custody to censorship resistance, is built on that bedrock.

Monero? Great privacy, but no credible decentralization roadmap or supply audit. PAXG? Issued by a centralized entity with counterparty risk.

Bitcoin stands alone: unforgeable, unprintable, unstoppable.

It’s not about finding a use case…it is the use case. Now it’s on us to build, teach, and prove it.

I think it should be more about compartmentalization then arguing about which coin is superior. I use Bitcoin like digital gold for long-term savings while I use Monero as digital cash for short-term savings and payments.

I'm an avid Monerist but still think that BTC has some value and should not be forgotten. I tend to follow both BTC and XMR accounts as well.

I think people just focused more on the concept of different crypto having different purposes, then that would eliminate this crypto Olympics we've been in here.

I could put you on!

You like reggae ?!

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.

Which one is more private lightning or liquid?

I would like to buy a Futurebit Apollo II

What are your thoughts on this? Is it worth it?

o3 tells me that bitcoin is a tripartite hill citadel cleartext communication complex and monero is a fog clad night roving caravan of miscreant pirate chuck wagons.

not bad, o3. not bad...

So unpopular opinion. Can the #xmr and #btc communites stop fucking fighing over nothing. Both have use, both have value, and allegedly both communities have the same end goal. This divide is as fucking stupid as dividing along skin color. and needs to stop.

We’re all learning. I promised to split any XMR I got from the episode with him - so thanks for that!

Anonymity sets and Sybil.

I wouldn't want to run in a blockchain with Chainalysis. Mints can be private. No public ledger. Same inflation risk and rug risk. All or nothing.

Chainalysis thanks you

The "cypherpunk" account:

- is against Monero

- is against Bitcoin on-chain privacy tools

- In favor of custodial wallets

- In favor of the Liquid Federation's Network

Hmmm what does this quack like 🤔

I didn't know that! In any case free samurai 🏴‍☠️ Even if monero sucks and is not scalable

Lots of good people in that area too.

I found a good variety of humans there.

The libs def made me laugh tho 🤣

bills that are marked (or have their serial numbers listed and checked ) are not fungible.

banks generally dont check the serial numbers when you make a deposit so most cash remains fungible.

units of gold are readily interchangeable afaik.

units of #monero can be distinguished in certain circumstances. there was the MOrdinals thing for a second, those were nonfungible. if wallet data is available to The Adversary it can effect fungibility.

so like cash or gold, in certain situations certain units of monero can lose their fungibility.

on #Bitcoin everything is wide open and anyone can see tx flows. units of equal value are readily distinguished from each other.

therefore not fungible.

except in situations like Whirlpool, where the set of those utxos are *fungible with each other* but are NOT fungible with other nonWhirlpool utxos.

Not according to the simple moving average, it's not.

Sorry about your shadowban. 💁‍♂️

Not sorry that you're losing for being so violently opposed to reality. 🤙

it's also for onchain?

hi #nostriches!

Any suggestions for a mobile non custodial #wallet?

Aqua? Blue wallet?

The look of it maybe i'm wrong & it's not.

So in this test, the sender used a view key (part of moneros design) to see exactly where he sent the Monero, which he knew from the beginning, including the amount that he sent. This is natural for a layer one blockchain transaction. And to me, means the test is fairly disingenuous.

Also this fued is stupid in my opinion.

I did what? I read and shared a thread that proved sending XMR is not as private as sending bitcoin over lightning in the eyes of the SENDER. Seems like you’re angry and big time mad about this outcome. And fuck you for calling me a retard you can suck my retarded dick.

I'll be the first to say

So as long as you aren't PART of the tx it's untraceable and the amount can't be known.

I'm splitting hairs here sure but this reads a certain way.

And this is coming from a guy who I think you'd agree we have had discussion in good faith so no gotchas here. Just trying to understand.

Is that not the exact use case you WANT privacy for? When I send a user funds.. at least a big part.

Yeah I get the whole overhead tracking the chain surveillance government bs,, but he didn't say that at all in these.

He never said he can track all monero txs and I didnt get that impression from the posts.

Oooooff. Monero bros in disbelief 🫢 🤣 nostr:note16zfcen43qpnzln95xheqjh33z92vdmjwvm6p979aavpwy9lca73s290eqc

Great show.
