@Rothmus The ledger is transparent so it won't be too hard to tax your Bitcoin. You will need Monero instead.

@KimDotcom It could very well go up in price a lot, but I don't like the lack of privacy. I don't like that anyone can look up how much you have as long as they know your address: If that changes, then I will start using it.

@TheBTCTherapist Most Bitcoin maxis don't have a lot of Bitcoin. That's perhaps the main reason why they are so defensive about it and why they all hope that "it's still early". The little Bitcoin that they have is their only hope.

@thomas_fahrer From my experience, the average bitcoiner is a latecomer who has a very poor understanding of everything related to both Bitcoin and crypto. However, they seem to think that they understand both economics and BTC very well just because they listened to a few podcasts and Saylor.

@smeet_bhatt @TheyaBitcoin Unfortunately, Bitcoin doesn't offer privacy, lacks fungibility, has high fees, can't scale to handle many transactions, and the mining is very centralized. Monero has fixed all of these flaws. Bitcoin was a great proof of concept though.

@Vivek4real_ I don't think they understand Bitcoin. There is no reason to fear it. The mining is centralized and the ledger is completely transparent, thus making it easy to surveil. Monero is much more of a threat to the status quo.

PSA: this is garbage reporting. The headline should be “if you purposefully connect to malicious 3rd party nodes to post your transactions on many occasions Chainanal can guess better who you might be out of 16 possible ring signatories”. TLDR: use Monero if you need privacy.

@TheVladCostea They want the numbers to go up in BTC, so they want everyone to pour their money into it and not other cryptos. I suspect that's at least one of the reasons behind this behaviour. I guess they also just don't want to face up to the fact that there are other good cryptos.
