“As long as transactions can’t be censored on the blockchain it doesn’t matter if people can’t buy or sell Bitcoin anymore.” I have never once in my life had a dollar bill not be spendable anywhere in my entire life. I’ve had a ton of problems sending and receiving Bitcoin. The comparison is entirely theoretical and completely contrary to people’s actual experience. Monero is simply better. You don’t understand why this makes how Bitcoins define censorship resistance a completely jerkoff nerd fantasy? Actual censorship occurs at all layers of society, and if you can be identified by your transaction history then you can be practically censored in all sorts of ways (including people showing up armed to take your Bitcoin from you). This is why Bitcoin is not very useful as money, and all real world commerce has fled to other useful blockchains. Because everything is just Herman Hesse’s Glass Bead Game. Things only are meaningful to Bitcoiners on blockchain, and how that blockchain actually interacts in commerce and society has been determined to be completely irrelevant.
