Forgive me of this doesn't make any sense. I am trying to understand the trade offs between monero and bitcoin. My understanding is that monero might be better for decentralized mining since there is an effort to keep with cpu mining. I also hear the point that the chain on monero will get very big and this will be a problem for individuals to run nodes in the future.
I have been in bitcoin for quite a while and I fully believe it is here to stay. But I have the feeling that monero might be around as well so I want to understand better.
What are your thoughts on those trade offs. Do you think monero is a shitcoin or does it have a place on the future. And is it possible that it eventually the gap closes somewhat between the networks of the two, as we find the need for privacy grows?
