Bitcoin is a control tool by those circumcised cock sucking bastards (in other words, the parasitic entities we know as Israel and the Jews.). With its full transparency, traceability and linkability of all transactions, the Bitcoin blockchain is essentially a global panopticon and basically a future CBDC scheme. Bitcoin is just a NFT.

If Monero becomes the black-market gold: Market cap: $1T+ Price: $50,000/XMR This happens only when CBDCs dominate, cash vanishes, privacy becomes luxury, states push surveillance to the maximum, and economic pressure forces people into off-grid capital. This is not absurd, it’s the rational endgame of global digital authoritarianism. The thing is that Monero is far more scarce than gold, far easier to hold than gold, far easier to move than gold, far less percentage of supply produced each year than gold and you’re not gonna mine or find Monero in outer space. It is 1000 times greater than “Bitcoin is digital gold” narrative and on top of that, you can use with ease and not worry about “oh is my wallet linked to this”, or “oh did I report this transaction”. With Bitcoin, you absolutely do. If you hold Bitcoin over Monero, you are BRAINDEAD. If you hold gold over Monero, you are smart but you are not that smart. Bitcoin is just a shitcoin and a NFT compared to Monero.

Why Monero may be the real version of Satoshi’s vision? image Bitcoin created the foundation for decentralized digital money. But when you look closely at the goals Satoshi Nakamoto outlined in the Bitcoin whitepaper, Monero may actually be closer to that original vision. Privacy, fungibility, and everyday usability were core parts of Satoshi’s idea of electronic cash, and Monero delivers these features in a way Bitcoin no longer can. The Bitcoin whitepaper describes a peer-to-peer payment system that works like digital cash. It was designed for private, direct transactions without banks or middlemen. The goal was simple: fast, cheap, private payments that anyone could use. Bitcoin succeeded in many areas, but one key part changed over time. Bitcoin’s blockchain is fully transparent. Every address and every transaction is visible. Anyone can trace coins and follow their movement forever. This is the opposite of how physical cash works, where transactions are private. image Monero was created with privacy as the default. It hides the sender, the receiver, and the amount in every transaction. It does this through ring signatures, stealth addresses, and confidential transactions. This means no outsider can see where coins came from or where they go. Monero behaves like true digital cash. It keeps users anonymous and protects their financial history, which is exactly what Satoshi described when he talked about privacy in peer-to-peer money. A currency must be fungible to work in the real world. Every unit should be identical in value. With Bitcoin, this is not the case. Because the blockchain is public, some coins become “tainted” by past activity. Exchanges and companies sometimes reject or freeze these coins. Monero does not have this problem. All XMR is equal because its transaction history is hidden. No one can label or blacklist specific coins. This gives Monero the full fungibility that real money needs, and that Satoshi clearly intended. image Bitcoin is now seen as a store of value. It is often compared to digital gold. This is not a flaw, but it is different from the original goal. Bitcoin transactions can be slow and expensive, especially during busy periods. Monero, on the other hand, focuses on practical payments. It has low fees, fast confirmation times, and an adaptive block size that scales with demand. These features make Monero much better suited for daily use and small transactions. Monero works the way Bitcoin was described in 2008: private, fast, and simple peer-to-peer money. As concerns about surveillance and data collection continue to grow, privacy-focused cryptocurrencies have become more important. Monero’s design gives users control over their financial information and protects them from outside tracking. Many people now believe Monero is the closest thing to Satoshi’s original idea of an electronic cash system. Bitcoin remains the top store of value in crypto, but Monero is emerging as the strongest option for private internet payments. image Bitcoin built the world’s first decentralized currency. But Monero may be the one that delivers the full vision Satoshi imagined. With strong privacy, full fungibility, and everyday usability, Monero is positioned to become the true digital cash of the internet and its true strength isn’t claimed, it’s proven, forged under relentless fire. Monero is the Cypherpunk Manifesto, manifested. image

It is apparently a surprise to many people that government regulations have distortive effects that rarely, if ever, benefit consumers -and adding more regulations to the mix won't automagically solve those problems. image

The people: "We created a new form of money that is not controlled by any central organization, cannot be arbitrarily debased, is permissionless, open source, fungible, private, and untraceable. We call it Monero." Governments & Regulators: image Bitcoin is the compromise between the individual and the overlords. #Monero is the complete rejection of the overlords.

The realization that Bitcoin is NOT designed to be “digital cash” is going mainstream. Monero, by contrast, is purpose-built to fulfill this role—and it’s already proving itself where it matters most: in the real world, where private, peer-to-peer digital cash is not just a luxury but a necessity. Every design decision in Monero has been made with a singular focus: to create a globally adopted, censorship-resistant, surveillance-proof, unco-optable, and scalable digital cash utility. Monero also serves as the natural hedge to Bitcoin, differing in fundamental ways: image Monero isn’t just a theoretically superior tool for digital cash—it’s proving it with real adoption in real economies. In regions ravaged by hyperinflation and failed fiat (e.g., Formosa, Argentina), in black markets (e.g., online dark marketplaces), in the opt-out community (e.g. Xmrbazaar ), and for individuals facing oppressive financial surveillance and censorship, Monero is emerging as the tool for financial freedom. Perhaps the best indication that Monero is the leading crypto project working towards this mission is the fact that the Global State Banking Apparatus has actively taken steps to prevent people from accessing and using Monero by effectively forcing centralized exchanges to delist it through onerous regulations and even banning Monero in places like South Korea, Japan, Dubai, and elsewhere. Bitcoin is currently being speculated on as a digital store of value, but Monero is actually being used as digital cash—where privacy, fungibility, and true peer-to-peer transactions aren’t optional but essential. What ultimately sets these projects apart is their culture and intent. Bitcoin’s development has increasingly prioritized being a “store of fiat value,” aligning itself with the very financial system it once aimed to disrupt. Monero, on the other hand, continues to evolve as the tool to opt-out of the state-controlled fiat surveillance system, empowering people to live and transact freely, peer-to-peer. Monero is not just a hedge to Bitcoin; it is the missing piece of the cypherpunk revolution that Satoshi himself envisioned: a privacy-preserving, unstoppable, decentralized digital cash utility for all. The more Bitcoin focuses on its fiat-denominated value and moves toward centralization and surveillance under institutional adoption, the clearer Monero’s role becomes: the true digital cash for a free and open world, and the tool that will preserve our liberty to freely transact in the digital age without censorship or surveillance! image

#Monero fungibility ensures that no coin is tainted by its past, which protects user privacy and guarantees that all units are accepted equally—something other cryptocurrencies struggle to offer. image

image Money is ultimately a technology. Its core purpose is to store and transfer value across time and space. Like all technologies, the best ones tend to win by establishing a dominant network effect. We see this with systems like the decimal number system, which became the global standard for counting. We also see it in the English language, which despite not being the most native-spoken is the dominant language for global commerce, business, finance, media, and diplomacy due to its widespread adoption. Once a standard reaches critical mass, it's incredibly hard to displace unless something vastly superior comes along. The same logic applies to money. Today, the U.S. dollar (USD) holds the dominant position as the global reserve currency. It benefits from a strong network effect, deep liquidity, and trust built over decades since World War II. But if a new form of money were to displace the USD, it wouldn’t be a small incremental upgrade. It would need to be superior in every meaningful way: > Scarce (to preserve long-term value) > Private (to protect individual financial sovereignty) > Peer-to-peer (to prevent censorship and centralized control) > Borderless and digital-native (to thrive in the internet/information/AI age) Bitcoin brought many of these ideas to the forefront. But it's not truly private, and its traceability makes it unsuitable for certain use cases if privacy is a core requirement. Satoshi even talked about adding more privacy features to Bitcoin that were later implemented to Monero but not to Bitcoin. Monero is the only goddamn cryptocurrency that currently delivers default privacy, fungibility, and true peer-to-peer functionality without relying on centralized exchanges or second-layer solutions as outlined in the Bitcoin Whitepaper. That's why I consider myself a Monero network effect maximalist. If we’re talking about a serious contender to global money in the digital age (something that could truly replace fiat on a planetary scale) it must be superior to the USD in every way, and only Monero fits that bill.

image Imagine Satoshi Nakamoto's reaction to a Bitcoin Spot ETF owned by BlackRock. Let's revisit the whitepaper and understand why such a concept might be contrary to Satoshi's vision. In the whitepaper, Satoshi envisioned Bitcoin as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. An ETF, especially one owned by a major institution like BlackRock, introduces intermediaries. This goes against the direct peer-to-peer nature Satoshi aimed for. Satoshi stressed decentralization to prevent a concentration of power. An ETF, with its centralized structure and ownership by a financial giant, contradicts the essence of decentralization that Bitcoin was designed to achieve. The whitepaper emphasizes the need for a "trustless" system. An ETF, under the control of a single entity like BlackRock, requires trust in that entity. This undermines the trustless nature that Bitcoin wanted to establish. Satoshi aimed for a system resistant to censorship. A BlackRock-owned Bitcoin ETF, subject to regulatory and institutional influences, introduces the potential for censorship and control, deviating from Satoshi's vision. Bitcoin was intended to provide financial inclusion. An ETF owned by a financial giant like BlackRock could create barriers, limiting access to those outside traditional financial systems. The whitepaper emphasizes ownership of private keys. In an ETF, investors don't hold the private keys to their Bitcoin, introducing a fundamental departure from Satoshi's principle: "Not your keys, not your coins." Satoshi designed Bitcoin to have a capped supply, reducing the risk of inflation. A BlackRock-owned ETF could exert influence over a significant portion of the Bitcoin market, potentially affecting its scarcity and supply dynamics. The whitepaper encourages "permissionless innovation." A BlackRock-controlled ETF could stifle innovation by centralizing control and decision-making, hindering the permissionless spirit of Bitcoin. In essence, a Bitcoin Spot ETF owned by BlackRock seems at odds with the principles Satoshi Nakamoto laid out in the whitepaper. It introduces centralization, trust and potential interference, deviating from the decentralized, peer-to-peer and trustless vision that Bitcoin was created to embody, Satoshi's Nightmare indeed. image
