OK, so I'm genuinely curious to understand in what ways you think Monero as money is superior to Bitcoin as money.
To me the six properties of money are:
- Portable - Easily transported - Check, Bitcoin is perfectly portable and easy to conceal (pw in head) (much better than gold)
- Scarce - Fixed supply - Check, Bitcoin is perfectly scarce (much better than gold)
- Divisible - Can be split into any useful amount without losing value - Check, Bitcoin is as divisible as needed (easier to do than gold)
- Uniform - Each unit is valued the same - Check, Bitcoin is perfectly uniform (same/better than gold)
- Durable - Will not degrade over time - Check, Bitcoin private keys are perfectly durable (better than gold)
- Accepted - Widely used and valued by the population - Not yet, Bitcoin misses here for now (gold is better)
Bitcoin has always been interesting to me because it beats gold handily in 1) Portability, 2) Scarcity and to a lesser extent 3) Divisibility and 4) Uniformity. Bitcoin still loses in Acceptability but that is to be expected for 6 year old currency vs a 5000 year old one. This one follows the other 5.
In what manner is Monero better along these dimensions?
Monero is better than Bitcoin in Privacy and Uniformity (fungibility), but worse in the degree to which it is Accepted (liquidity). It matches Bitcoin in the other properties you've enumerated.
By the way, Monero's privacy is by default, but privacy is not mandatory. There will be a viewkey that can be shared (not yet fully implemented), allowing others to verify one's receipts and expenditures.
