A voice of reason. Thing is, very few are using BTC, even fewer are using XMR. Lightning is already providing pretty good privacy for extremely low fees.
I struggle to see the practical use case for XMR. I'm not a fan of eCash, but I think it serves this role for privacy in better way within the predominant infrastructure.
My only gripe is that it seems too easy to devolve into fractional reserve shitcoinery.
