I love bitcoin, however i see privacy as the #1 concern going forward.

Monero is quietly gaining lots of adoption on websites, services, exchanges, dark net markets etc.

Most of the truth & freedom movement appear to recommend it over Bitcoin.

Node count has passed BTC and mining hash rate is growing rapidly as you don't need an Asics, just your PC.

To me it seems Monero is something that should not be ignored.

Also scaling is another issue, Bitcoin fees are 1000x Monero fees.

There's no reason why you can't Coinjoin/Lightning your UTXO's in conjunction with Monero - it's a good privacy tool and supplement to Bitcoin IMO.

Thoughts please. I want some honest opinions here.

I have always admired privacy coins and not just monero alone, I consider them the future with the whole clamp down by SEC and agencies, I feel like there Is a war between the institutional finance system and the blockchain oriented finance system and it might further drive users into the world of advanced privacy, even though bitcoin is still the flagship and most popular crypto currency, people will opt for a privacy driven coin to avoid certain brouhaha.
