      yes. I increasingly believe that privacy as a feature alone is insufficient to compete against BTC’s monetary network effect nor accrue significant value to a separate coin.

      Bitcoin's network effects will be no match against privacy coins that have the fundamentals needed to be a strong money. BTC's network effect is super small right now. Market cap of Bitcoin is 1/10 th of Apple, for perspective.

      Let’s say there are 20 characteristics that matter for a Store of Value. ZEC/XMR are superior to BTC in 1/20 of them, but BTC is superior in the remaining 19/20. That’s a fact. It will be a very uphill battle, even for privacy coins. Also, BTC privacy is improving.pic.twitter.com/raNMbzcEsi

      The # of characteristics is somewhat irrelevant given the importance of privacy as it relates to money and wealth storage. Who wants to use a system that reveals your entire balance when any money is moved?

      BTC privacy will be good enough & BTC privacy is improving while privacy coins are deeply lacking in all other areas vs. BTC. It’s a very uphill battle, more so if you believe this market is ultimately winner take all, which I do.

      Is there such a thing as 'good enough' privacy as it relates to money? After all, these aren't pictures of dogs or twitter memes that we're talking about. The XMR/ZEC technical architects argue that privacy additions to Bitcoin (and Ethereum) will never deliver the same privacy.

      I have moved my Bitcoins over 30 times this week. Do you know how many coins I have? LN privacy, Tumblebit, Dandelion, JoinMarket, ZeroLink, Samourai techniques and many other things are here or in development. Yes I think there is such a thing as good enough.

      How is that meaningfully different from the status quo, where your bank and government knows with a few keystrokes?

      I think the answer to “Who wants to use a system that reveals your entire balance when any money is moved?” is “everyone using the current banking system”

          there is also virtue in exposing your transactions when they are above board and there is *equal access to the data*, unlike existing banking system

          come to think of it, the existence privacy coins could make the choice to use a non-private coin more meritorious, and hence add value to the latter (I hadn’t really thought about this until now)

          I am wondering if the usual discourse in CT, i.e. that privacy is good and transparency is bad, is not an argument that lacks nuance? Yes, we want individuals citizens to be able to transact privately, but we also want governments and FIs to transact in a transparent manner.

          This is one more reason why (if we assume this will be a winner-take-all outcome) I am quite pessimistic regarding privacy coins. The best coin would be one which would force governments to transact publicly while allowing for citizens to transact privately if they so wished.

          BTC is clearly best positioned to be that coin. Transparent or private, as required. Admittedly you need a significant amount of technical knowledge to transact privately in bitcoin at the moment but it IS possible and privacy improvements are happening.
