 Ummm, .0001% of the world is like 8k people....lol

I have nothing against monero, but it won't be around in any kind of real world in 10, 20, 30 years from now.

I own monero, have used it, have mined it. But I am just being real.

Hell, Bitcoin is by far the most known, 1000x over monero, and it is tiny globally.

Best of luck.

 Monero is the only other coin that is still relevant 10 years after it was created. Bitcoin started at the darknet markets, why have the darknet markets kicked out bitcoin to focus only on discussing and transferring Monero?

If it has captured the black markets (like bitcoin did in the past), it is indeed a sign that it will still be around, and even stronger, in 10, 20, 30 years.

 Yes, I spend fiat dollars every single day.

There is no such thing as a US cbdc, and isn't legal under the constitution, nor the Fed act of 1913.

Thanks for playing though

 Whatever is used in dark markets is the best argument I don’t have a rebuttal for in my debates with myself. Whatever is really censorship resistant is being used in places where censorship has occurred. The Bitcoin maxi self own of pointing out dollars are used more frequently for illicit activity than Bitcoin is not an endorsement for Bitcoin as a currency. I know this but I have yet to act on it.
