 You don't understand clearly what I've told you. This is a system of incentives, a "game" in the parlance of game theory. The outcomes are very much predictable, I'm not guessing here or making an argument on behalf of something or against something, I'm only making an educated observation. You can take what I've said and try to understand it deeper, or you can default to defending something you're emotionally attached to, but the incentives are the incentives and the outcomes are predictable. 
 @mister_monster I blocked the OP long ago. Can't remember why, but I don't block unless there is a very, very good reason. Not saying you should, just letting you know this convo may be an exercise in futility. 
 Not sure what world you’re living on. In my timeline, we’ve watched monero continuously decline to irrelevance. I get why you’re upset. Every year fewer and fewer people care. 
 Lol oh I see call me upset to see if you can get a rise out of me.

Honest people don't resort to childish tactics, they approach about topics from a place of veracity and attempt to delve into them with genuine curiosity.

There isn't a serious bitcoiner that doesn't accept Monero. 
 Sure, we were all were interested in it when it started. But we don’t care anymore. I’m sure you’ll figure it out eventually too. Good luck! 
 Shopinbit and other real businesses wrote on X that Monero is used as payment more than Bitcoin + Bitcoin Lightning Network 
 That could be. It’s Gresham’s Law. People spend their worse monies first and hoard their best money. It’s the reason that, if I have both fiat and BTC, I prefer to spend fiat first. You always keep the money that preserves your purchasing power the best. 
 Or maybe because it's too expensive to use and to make a private transaction.. so they use it like a digital collectible as Saylor suggest 
 Just zapped you 42 sats. That seemed pretty fast and inexpensive to use. And lightning is fairly private for senders. 
 Thanks. Do you have your btcln node? Because in some countries custodial btcln wallets stopped to work

A monero fullnode selfhosted is easier to mantain 
 Are you not aware of the free market? Are you not aware that Monero (where accepted) is usually #1?
