They're beginning to get it. And that is the difference between the #monero folks and the maxis: Monero is an idea (private, anonymous digital cash), if that works on Bitcoin and works well, most Monero folks would see that as a victory. The zealot maxis however shit on everything else, only their holy relic is acceptable, and freedom be damned. Years and years and years of that short-sighted stubborn pig-headedness. Monero works and it works today. **USE IT**. It's about freedom, not stupid religious zealotry.

I think that battle is already lost.

I think the battle is lost with KYC. KYC is only forced when you exchange fiat for bitcoin. If you only earn and spend in bitcoin in self-custody the privacy fight gets a big boost back. There is still the question of being able to track you once your address is pinpointed but that is where features like coinjoin becomes very useful. I think that creating the circular economy, never touching fiat, will help a lot. And all this that is happening might be the awakening moment we all need to actually start using bitcoin and only bitcoin as much as possible.

Agree, care to share how you increase privacy without sacrificing audit ability of total supply?

As a Monero guy I'd love to see massively improved privacy on Bitcoins base layer. It would me make move back a part to Bitcoin. No high hopes, though.

Why even bother with ever faulty privacy at a fedcoin. Monero fixes that
