I'm not convinced that it is very private if you're just swapping in and out of things that aren't at all private (most people are). That's always been my problem with it. It isn't a good store of value, so it doesn't incentivize people to stay in it fully. The on and off ramp data is quite telling, as meta data usually is. That's really where I think Bitcoin privacy issues mostly exist anyway (on and off ramps). Fixing that, in my opinion, leaves little reason to use Monero given it's economic design and self-induced security limitations on the network.

I do support the mission though. Frankly, this technology is still relatively young and the top players (just Bitcoin and Monero in my opinion) can make each other better if we cooperate and improve. I'd call myself a Monero fan overall, and I'm certainly in the Bitcoin Maxi camp.
