Monero is great as a transactional function, I mentally frame it as a privacy layer for bitcoin's value to flow through as needed. Hold wealth in BTC, use Monero for certain purchases. For instance Silent.Link NoKYC phone numbers.
It is the only other interesting thing in the broader market worth caring about. If Monero's chain didn't exist, humanity would worse off - dissidents and people living in totalitarian hellscapes having the technical ability to perform commerce privately is good. Too much risk using Bitcoin if your life depends on being anonymous.
I also *LOVE* using Monero to buy Bitcoin on Robosats. Having no ties to any of my accounts or usernames, Strike, CashApp, Zelle, etc is phenomenal. And with 2 minute block times & instantly seeing the transactions in your wallet, Monero makes a wonderful MoE.
I'm a Bitcoin maxi and I adore Monero's value proposition. Truly private, fungible e-cash is a benefit to humans - ideology be damned. You don't have to invest or hold it to use it briefly. Its liquidity could be better but hopefully nostr, Robosats, and other P2P exchange platforms can improve that. Monero is hilariously what what most normies/nocoiners think Bitcoin is.
