So why not Monero?

The lack of recognition of the value of privacy at the protocol level is worrisome. It is clear that Bitcoin is revolutionary but also has inherent flaws that present risks to users - censorship, surveillance. 

These are not trivial problems, and Monero is the best solution to them today.

The real problem is that because Monero is a viable solution, it poses a real threat tothee dangerous people who manage global finance, so people want to steer clearorf public association with XMR.

We need Bitcoin leaders to advance this conversation.
