 "Nostr is for everyone"
"Monero crowd gfy!"

Really? I thought we're here for the decentralisation, freedom of speech and for our privacy? Everything else is a question of preferences and at least Monero is an actual coin with an actual blockchain and not some smart contracted shit-token on some shit-chain. 
 I haven't used Monero, but it seems to me to be the only other coin that has a use case.  
 I could argue that but at the same time "use case" depends on the needs of the individual. So yes if you have use for Monero it's a valid currency.  
 Absolutely. I have my doubts that I'll use it myself but I think the privacy aspect of it is worth something to many in this sphere of the world.

I'm still #Bitcoinonly. 
 I could not get a monero node to sync that's as far as I got with it 
 oh? Was that recently? 
 In the past year yeah. Is it also monero culture to run your own node? 
 Yes it is. Mine keeps in sync. Maybe try again if you have use for it. 
 Weird the first time I've ever heard this 
 This is the most sane response to this I've seen on here for Monero.  
 cheers 🥂  
 The monero crowd are very preachy, but I still like them. It's the government boot lickers and NPCs I can't stand. 
 So are Bitcoiners 😆  
 Notice how there are no monero bootlickers? Just an observation. 
 Is that good though? Money should be useable by your enemies too. 
 Anyone can use it if they want. Or don't. Though I doubt that wall street is gonna sink money into it 
 Also, Monero had a fair launch. PoW, sane supply curve, no premine. Lots to like about XMR. 
 PoW is PoW! 
 If privacy is a problem in the future we will all happily use it to get around whatever may be coming.  
 I accept Bitcoin, Liquid, Monero, and physical USD 
 I like monero, as shitcoins go. 

But isn’t “monero GFY” free speech? Nostr is working just fine.
