I used to love Monero until I realized that:
1/ it’s bitcoin’s main competitor for medium of exchange
2/ monero tech most likely won’t come to bitcoin
3/ zcash has been pushing Bitcoin privacy research (Zerocash), it’s 100% compatible with BTC and may return to the mother ship one day
4/ monero’s privacy is based on the Chaumian principle of hiding in a large crowd. Zcash’s ZK SNARKs won’t even reveal that a transaction took place and they scale better for storage.
