Gold, Bitcoin, and Zcash are all good monies. What do a lot of gold bugs, Bitcoin maxis, and (the soon to materialize) Zcash zealots miss? These three monies are at different points on the adoption and risk curve. Doing an either/or analysis misses the point and is like comparing apples with oranges. Gold as money has been around for thousands of years and with the current bull run it has outperformed the S&P500 in the last 25 years, which is pretty remarkable. It simply looks good and has many properties which are desirable for money and after a while the network effects multiplied into gold becoming the "ultimate reserve asset". However, it lacked one critical feature: You cannot send it over the internet. Bitcoin came onto the scene over 15 years ago, solving the double-spending problem without a trusted third party, and being in price discovery mode and the beginning of the adoption s-curve since then. The returns have been phenomenal. And the volatility gut wrenching. Both coming down over the years, as the asset matured. But Bitcoin — digital gold — lacks one critical feature: privacy. And hand in hand with the lack of privacy comes reduced fungibility. There are multiple contenders in the "marketplace of monies" to take the position of "private Bitcoin". But just as Bitcoin was the first one that solved the double spending problem without a trusted third party, Zcash was the first one to optimally solve "ledger indistinguishability" — giving it a similar first mover advantage. From an adoption, volatility, and price discovery perspective it's probably at the stage where Bitcoin was around 2017. So which one is best? You will most likely get good returns if you hold either asset for the mid- to long-term. With higher expected returns and volatility as you move up the risk curve and being earlier on the adoption s-curve. For me it's not an either/or question, I hold all three. Physical gold for me is the safe bet that will even hold value if the internet stops working. For Bitcoin I expect larger returns than for gold in the long run, if no major catastrophe occurs. I expect the highest returns and volatility for Zcash — it feels like having a second chance to buy Bitcoin in the early days. It comes with the corresponding risks, but it also represents a world in which I want to live in: a world where we have unstoppable private money. Money that I can send around not just without the need for a trusted third party, but also without any third party looking.

There are three hard monies. When the global fiat money system crumbles, which bag do you want to hold? Physical gold, which you can hardly take across borders in larger quantities? Bitcoin, which is fully traceable? Zcash, unstoppable private money? Chose wisely.

@coryswan @naval Thanks for pointing this out. I still don't understand how a legend such as Naval doesn't get that there's only Bitcoin, everything else is bs.

@visionario_btc Gracias! Igualmente el simple hecho de que puedan ocurrir estas cosas debería ser un red flag para cualquier persona que crea que Monero puede ser un activo para guardar valor en el tiempo. #thereisnosecondbest

@Potdevin23 No se sabe si llegaron a 51% exactamente, pero teniendo menos del 50% pueden hacer re-orgs de ese tipo. x.com/c___f___b/stat…
Come-from-Beyond@c___f___b

Looks like #Qubic has achieved 51% over #Monero, we are waiting for independent confirmations. In the meanwhile #Monero team is polishing details of their 51% attack protection. Many accused us of being sponsored by 3-letter agencies to attack this anon coin. What do you think now, after we has helped Monero to prepare for its future fights against those agencies?..

El verdadero valor de Bitcoin está en la esperanza a largo plazo y la mentalidad de baja preferencia de tiempo que trae a todos sus usuarios El precio solo es el mercadeo para hacer que la sociedad empiece a observar el rabbit hole antes de caer en él
