Monero is not asic resistant either, its completely dominated in hashrate by CPU based ASICs, they will capitulate into more specific ASICs for survival eventually, asic resistance really is overhyped anyways. If monero isnt 100% untracable, its not nearly as good as just creating a private bulletproof sidechain on bitcoin, especially since the supply dynamics of monero are constantly unverifiable, leading to the community forcing hard forks to limit the supply, which could inevitably rob people of their monero without them having any way to protest that

Any ASIC is useless in Monero and will ever be, thanks to RandomX. Monero is not 100% untraceable and will never be, nothing will ever be bulletproof, but Monero is actually too good for ChainAnalysis and co. If you don't do shit with opsec, it's close to impossible to link transactions with you. The actual threat is @IP. Simply running it's own node fix that. If you want to use an other network than Bitcoin network, ok do it, I will never do that, I think you understand what is the risk... the hard fork is just a cleaner way to upgrade, nothing to do with the supply. It's like removing windows10 and installing a fresh windows 11. It's more healthy.

"CPU based ASIC" is an oxymoron and you are just a normal moron. But you're free to break RandomX and make a lot of money you can swap for Bitcoin at any time if you think it is that easy. https://image.nostr.build/6d55283c174b3d540571b65ce8b4b95522b5d0e8ccf1d3e81051a721dc4f7732.jpg https://image.nostr.build/36e0242587a802d1c66ef0647991a7a97b861207533bdb3b1d733ebe6c1965d1.jpg
