If the choice is Monero, Bitcoin or Cash what do I do?

I understand. I suppose you should buy Monero. And support it.

Normally you don't get an advance insight. I offer that, but what you do with the information is up to you.

Right. Here is what I know. Darkcoin was kinda a piece of shit and I avoided it. But looking at the top market cap in the top 10 currencies it's pretty obvious that anon is NOT a fad in crypto. It should be a cornerstone. So anon = important.

Cryptonote is something besides a bitcoin clone. Monero is well distributed. Blockchain bloat sucks. It's not the outright scam Darkcoin was. Although Darkcoin scam + being first mover and seeing it's success was a lesson in how huge first mover is worth in this space.

I'm not sure if first mover in anon coins is still a big deal since dark is falling to Monero? Does Monero get first mover advantage if it passes Dark - or is first mover advantage gone? But it sure seems like it would be an uphill battle for a new currency. And at some point consensus / network effect takes over. (MS Windows vs Mac, etc).

Just random facts. I do wish all the issues you brought up were resolved (although I will admit to not understanding some of them). But ... do they have to be to make a significant huge massive improvement to privacy over bitcoin?
