    Couldn’t tell you. I honestly don’t know enough about Monero to have an educated opinion.

    However, I do know Bitcoin and (a bit less so) Etherium from a technical standpoint, and I know those are very popular options, so unless Monero is specified I think it’s safe to assume “cryptocurrency” = “Bitcoin” for the most part when talking about the general trends of adoption.

    That said, from what I hear, Monero is private, and I have no reason to doubt that. For the record, I’m also not downvoting anyone talking about Monero. I think the Lemmy community in general is just relatively anti-cryptocurrency (and anti most things, honestly).
