It works until it doesn't. The FCMP++ update will make monero's obfuscation capabilities much better, the community right now is radioactively toxic in an unbearable way, it wasn't this way 2 to 4 years ago. But I do agree that's how things tend to gravitate in uncensored places. I'll still be swapping fiat for it but it's hard to publicly endorse it right now. A lot of things are uncertain right now, I just feel that goldbacks bring that certainy into focus moreso than anything else does at the moment.
