The fact Shadow has 2 tokens, one like CN the other like BTC, with the ability to create/destroy between the 2 at will means Shadow is not only useful for anonymity seekers (shadw>shadow tx's) but so too for charities and organizations that wish to keep funds transparent on an SDC (BTC-like) addy.

Additionally the fact one can donate to charity with a Shadow>SDC anon tx means that you can:
Donate anonymously to a transparent SDC addy.

i.e truly anonymous donations to charities and organizations.

Neither XMR or BTC can boast this incredible flexibility permitted by Shadow's unique 2-token network

N.B Shadow>Shadow and Shadow>SDC tx's are remarkably fast and and u can convert (destroy/create) huge amounts of coin/token (should u so desire) within a matter of seconds up to maybe a minute or so.

I highly recommend people download the wallets and experience the magic for themselves.
Until you do so it's all rather abstract and after you do you get that "AHA!" moment as the system's genius crystallizes in your brain.

Shadow Tokens are like SDC only private. They are 1:1

SDC is a public token traceable and linkable on the blockchain
SDT is a private token untraceable and unlinkable on the blockchain
