 Around me there is people which are buying Bitcoin and be amazed because their portfolio gain in value, they understand pretty nothing about Bitcoin, crypto, CBDC, Monero. Using Bitcoin as everyday money is a bad idea, there is no privacy on the base layer, which is making every Layer up useless because it's the entry and exit point. KYC on-chain is coming, we need something where transactions on base layer is anonymous, then we can add Layer 2,3,4 etc etc 😃  
 that’s BS 
 The good news is with Bitcoin we'll already be more poised than before to not allow such overreach. They won't be able to enforce kyc well as they'll just drive black markets.

I like Monero for the tool it is but think it unnecessary for everyday spending. Nobody will be doing everyday spending on the base layer. Nobody even does that now. Other layers have already proven useful for relative privacy when needed. 
 "They won't be able to enforce kyc"

Are you sure ?

The vast majority own Bitcoin for fiat gain, 99% of Bitcoiners don't care about privacy or freedom ^^

Future will tell, I hope you have right anyway
