Bitcoin and Monero are complimentary. Bitcoin is less threatening to TPTB and is therefore spearheading the normalization and adoption of magic internet money for transactions and store of value. Monero provides an alternative for private transactions and store of value. It also serves as a viable plan B in the event that Bitcoin becomes fully captured by TPTB. In the ideal future, Bitcoin will be the primary money for public companies/institutions and governments and Monero will be the primary money for private companies/institutions and individuals. image

Moneros, a shitcoin. Go sell your shitty coin somewhere else, you guys are so annoying. I'm still waiting for someone to trace my Lightning transactions or swaps between Bitcoin/Lightning/Liquid.
Your channels peer, and swap provider get all that metadata and are subject to subpoena from law enforcement. State intelligence has surveillance over all domestic and international internet traffic and BGP routes. You can't rely on network obfuscation alone. They know. I'll not selling you Monero, I don't care if you buy it I wouldn't know anyway. I just want the self deception around Bitcoins failings to end. What the lot of you think you bought with Bitcoin (private unstoppable freedom money) is actually a façade in Bitcoin and only lives in Monero.
Problem with this is that Monero is a better private store of value (not really its purpose anyway) AND certainly a better medium of exchange. As OFAC sanctions encroach upon non-KYC BTC UTXOs we'll see a squeeze of nonKYC Bitcoin and thus the adoption of Bitcoin will be bifurcated sharply between the regulated KYC UTXOs and the non-KYC "Tainted" coins. This is already happening with high AML risk coins like those in coinjoin, it's only getting worse.
Lol use use Wallet of Satoshi, I responded assuming you were running your own lightning node. What a joke, you claim to be a cypherpunk?
