All these Bitcoiners seem to think Monero is great too:
"Monero is a very good privacy complement to Bitcoin" -Nick Szabo
"Maybe you need a Monero" -Michael Saylor
"For really strong privacy, Monero is much better" -Andreas Antonopoulos
"There's a lot of advantages to using Monero" -Matt Odell
"Monero is the only goddamn currency that's used!" -John McAfee
"Monero will be a champion in that space and we'll have a Bitcoin-Monero duopoly" -Max Keiser
"All fiat systems and all tokens outside of Bitcoin and monero (to my knowledge) have middlemen you cannot get rid of" -Adam Curry
"I would say Monero is not a shitcoin. I think it's a very innovative and new research project that works." -Max Hillbrand
"Monero; Just use it. Objectively it's better than Bitcoin [for privacy]...it's obvious" -Amir Taaki
"Monero is closer to our hearts than whatever Bitcoin is turning into today" -Samourai Wallet
"Bitcoin is the reserve currency. Hold it. Privacy coins are transactional privacy. Use them...Monero: getmonero.org" -Balaji
"99% of cryptocurrencies are complete and total garbage, but even among the upper echeleon of real ones, Monero is in the top percentile, so it deserves our respect" -Paul Sztorc

I'm not convinced that it is very private if you're just swapping in and out of things that aren't at all private (most people are). That's always been my problem with it. It isn't a good store of value, so it doesn't incentivize people to stay in it fully. The on and off ramp data is quite telling, as meta data usually is. That's really where I think Bitcoin privacy issues mostly exist anyway (on and off ramps). Fixing that, in my opinion, leaves little reason to use Monero given it's economic design and self-induced security limitations on the network.
I do support the mission though. Frankly, this technology is still relatively young and the top players (just Bitcoin and Monero in my opinion) can make each other better if we cooperate and improve. I'd call myself a Monero fan overall, and I'm certainly in the Bitcoin Maxi camp.
You missed off "If I wanted to buy shitloads of crack online, fuck using btc, Monero is the better tool for the job" - inpc
I listen and value argumentations and facts, I dont trust bitcoin maxis and, in the end, dont trust out of contex quotes of bitcoin maxis.
Critical thinking is an important skill. Thanks for sharing.
