Right! Same with monero, except higher amounts because it's not custodial like ecash.
But yes, since it bleeds constantly (as with everything else) against Bitcoin, it's best to hold a proportionally small amount for spending.
Would you not find it disingenuous to call ecash a shitcoin because it's ruggable and can even be fractionally reserved? Those are fair points, but that does not a shitcoin make.
Like every other thing, it has tradeoffs.
Now imagine calling the most recognized private and anonymous (cash-like) layer1 on the planet just because it's not bitcoin.. can you see how uneducated and vulgar that sounds?
And to top it off, you're not the usual run of the mill dumb maxi, you understand programming and cryptography.
Anyone who looks objectively and can understand how Monero works, knows that it is a marvel of engineering.
Beyond the tech aspect, you can also think that its very existence is doing everyone a favour, since without privacy and anonymity bitcoin is just another surveillance tool in a long repertoire of surveillance tools.
Fuck man, you get this, which is why you're developing what you're developing.
Monero stands at the front right now, shielding everyone else. It's already been delisted from most CEX. Bitcoin not only hasn't, it's been embraced by the system.
Why do you think that is?
Nothing against it being embraced by the system per se btw, I am happy with that and my bags get heavier, but let's not pretend it's only been embaced because it's as transparent as a Socialist's lack of understanding of economics.
So, you see. I don't get the fanaticism. Monero is a tool, if you think you should be able to make transactions without leaving behind an eternal transparent breadcrumb trail - and presumably you do, as an ecash dev - then any and every tool that helps normalize that, you ought to stand behind, on moral grounds.
But you don't, or your maxi friends will kick you out. Like so many others, you seem to be trapped in the groupthink.
No offense man, I appreciate the work you do. But Christ, it's ridiculous, they don't even need to divide us, we do it to ourselves.
