I'm wondering if it's worth exchanging Bitcoin to Monero for security as Bitcoin is quite volatile and monero seems less so. Any advice would be appreciated.
Why not then directly bought Monero if you really wanted to be private? Or it you are using bitcoin, then used mixing services to cover your track?
If you are looking for long term investments, I wouldn't advise you to go Monero. Altcoins are more volatile than bitcoin to be honest, so it makes zero sense to shift funds across Monero. Just stick with Bitcoin and just enjoy(worry) the ride and see how it goes up until the year of year where we usually see's surge in prices.
