In light of recent events, darknet OPSEC gurus are now pushing for more rigorous security standards. Other than the mandatory use of PGP, this also includes mandatory Monero-only payments.

I expect we're eventually going to reach a point where Dread will prohibit the listing of new DNMs that aren't Monero-only, they've previously prohibited markets that don't accept XMR.

In other words, the Monero economy is now only going to grow while Bitcoin's downward spiral into economic irrelevance will only speed up. The darknet economy has been the largest sustained source of *organic* BTC demand since 2011 and with this source now drying up, all they have left are a few die-hard agorists who still haven't gotten the XMR memo. I'm sure Tether's magical printer will keep things going a while longer but no prizes for guessing how this all ultimately ends for Bitfags.
