I understand you are a fan. The points I raised all still stand. I don't want to litigate that. It is difficult to build on top of a structure that changes as often as Monero. Yes 10% of bitcoin's ON-CHAIN txs but again Lightning has a much larger and similarly anonymous use set. Either way, if you don't want to bleed value you swap Monero for Bitcoin. That's where all that OpSec falls apart. I didn't say Bitcoiners aren't also cypherpunks. I said they aren't obsessed with the privacy concerns Monero guys are, in general. Yes, the paranoid prepper won't be caught off guard most likely. But he also doesn't participate in society either.
