There are many currencies in the world.
Bitcoin has features that Monero does not have and vice versa, and due to their architecture, neither can be like the other.
I am reaching out to the Monero community because they are doing things better than us and we can help each other.
I'm not trying to convince anyone of anything, I'm sticking with my sats, but I want alternative markets to be created, black markets, and for Bitcoin to be used for payment, and this is where Monero is beating us.
Hating each other in the face of a common enemy, which is the state, is useless.
And I have to admit that Monero isn't fooling anyone; it's a privacy coin and it does what it says it does.
Are some Monero Boys very obtuse? Yes. But it also happens on our side. I myself have taken it personally, knowing full well what its technical characteristics were, simply to bash the Monero Boys because sometimes they are very annoying.
But when we see Monero sweeping the board in the main stores where Monero and Bitcoin can be used... we're doing something wrong.
