This is the historical price chart of Monero with respect to Bitcoin, in the same way that in the Fiat, Bitcoin makes its upward movements in a few days a year, statistically less than 9 days. If you keep your wealth in Monero or Fiat, you have everything to lose because you will not hit those 9 days of upward movement.

Privacy is important, but preserving your wealth is important too.

For this reason I prefer to use techniques that maintain my privacy while keeping my wealth in Bitcoin.

If anyone can get the privacy of Monero while maintaining the value of their wealth, let me know, the rest is child's play for me.
