Competitors like DASH, Zcash, BEAM, and even Grin don't stand a chance against Monero's ever-growing user base and mainstream demand.
Monero is the best privacy coin and others can not compete with Monero. DASH, ZCash, BEAM, GRIN will join the party if Monero leads a new wave for privacy coins.
I think you forgot PirateCoin (ARRR). The coin is still relatively young compared to those listed, but has the strongest privacy functions in the crypto universe so far. In the past I used Monero as well, but now PirateCoin is my favorite privacy coin. You can found more information here
https://pirate.black . The coin recently increased from $0.3 to over $5, but is now back at around $2.5. But still a big decreasing. You should definitely watch the coin
