XMR wins hands down on the privacy front. It benefits from multiple layers of privacy tech, none of which requires moonmath or trusting humans to delete data.

XMR's usability is garbage right now. It's gotten better, but is still garbage. This isn't a huge problem though, since the devs have been focused since day one on privacy (Real Privacy). Usability can be added to a coin after its creation--privacy cannot.

But even if ZCash and Monero had equivalent privacy tech (they don't), hell even if ZCash had superior privacy tech to Monero (it doesn't), there is a single fact that raises XMR so far above competition that it's not even a competition. And that's obligatory privacy. There is no 'unshielded' easy-mode send in XMR. All XMR transactions are shielded, all XMR balances are hidden, period. No other privacy coin can say the same. If you understand this fact, you understand why XMR is the only privacy coin worth taking seriously.

Just have a look at the top token holders for XMR and ZEC, the truth speaks for itself:

Also consider this:
You are traveling through parts of a country with a medium to high violent crime rate. You need to use some of your Bitcoin to pay for something. If every person you transact with knows exactly how much money you have, this is a threat to your personal physical safety.

You are a business that receives a payment from a supplier. That supplier will be able to see how much money your business has, and therefore can guess at how price sensitive you are in future negotiations. They can see every single other payment you’ve ever received to that Bitcoin address, and therefore determine what other suppliers you are dealing with and how much you are paying those suppliers. They may be able to roughly determine how many customers you have and how much you charge your customers. This is commercially sensitive information that damages your negotiating position enough to cause you relative financial loss.

You are a private citizen paying for online goods and services. You are aware that it is common practice for companies to attempt to use ‘price discrimination’ algorithms to attempt to determine the highest prices they can offer future services to you at, and you would prefer they do not have the information advantage of knowing how much you spend and where you spend it.

You sell cupcakes and receive Bitcoin as payment. It turns out that someone who owned that Bitcoin before you was involved in criminal activity. Now you are worried that you have become a suspect in a criminal case, because the movement of funds to you is a matter of public record. You are also worried that certain Bitcoins that you thought you owned will be considered ‘tainted’ and that others will refuse to accept them as payment.

money laundering is very illegal. You think the gov will just let everyone a free tool to money launder, send money to ISIS and North Korea? They turned a blind eye to the whole thing as long as it was just a few faggots like you that converted their grandmas pension to xmr to buy dragon dildos and weed, but when people start using it for far more illegal things it will get banned from everywhere. It doesn't matter if your coin will still exist on "the cloud" if the amount of people that will be able to buy it will be reduced to a very small number. Normies will dump it, institutional investors will dump it, the only people left using it will be drug dealers and terrorists, so yeah have fun getting dumped by el chapo and al-bagdadi.

>when privacy coins will get banned from all mainstream exchanges
Forgetting the DEX argument for a second, even if some countries go through the legal trouble of banning privacy coins from traditional exchanges (on shaky legal ground there I might add), you're just going to have more privacy coin friendly exchanges open up shop in banana republics like Malta or whatever so people can wash their bitcoin there. It's unrealistic to think that the market won't adapt to privacy coins because they MAY be used for nefarious purposes.

I'm actually much more nervous about governments continuing to crack down on fiat to crypto gateways, making it more difficult for people to get funds into and out of crypto in the first place, rather than worrying about privacy coins getting banned from altcoin exchanges.

>>13704274
COLX is on life support and isn't worth mentioning really. They could learn a thing or two from iExec. Anyway, its privacy aspect is broken at the moment since all Zerocoin transactions are disabled due to the minting bug discovered a few weeks ago which applies to PIVX and all of its clones.

Malta is part of EU so I doubt they aren't heavily regulated on that. Again, you are ignoring my argument.

I'm not ignoring anything, that was my first post in the thread. I used Malta as an example because I know that's where Binance relocated to. If Malta gets compromised they'll just relocate somewhere in Africa or wherever. The point is there's always going to be some shady country that will happily host a business that's washing bitcoin and XMR in a KYC optional environment. And if all else fails, a DEX will rise up and grab the volume. I'm not saying this won't temporarily hurt liquidity but ultimately if there is a demand for it, it's going to survive and its price shouldn't suffer much, if at all.

>>13704662
Just some obscure bug in the Zerocoin protocol. Supposedly PIVX wanted to move to something else anyway, but I'm not so sure on that. All I know is COLX disabled all zCOLX transactions temporarily. They usually just copy whatever PIVX does so they're probably waiting on a fix from PIVX devs.

Of course it's untraceable. Can you make payments for very serious, national defense tier illicit activities strictly in Monero? Probably not right now because of how volatile it is. In Bitcoin? I mean, maybe, but still pretty volatile. You'd have to ask people in the know or actual terrorists if this is how deals are done. As long as there is lower hanging fruit (fiat cash transactions) that criminals and terrorists need to use to operate then that's what governments will prioritize.

I like Dash also. The blockchain is based on Bitcoin and remains transparent and trusted. The difference is Dash offers privacy through uncertainty.

The Monero and Zcash privacy is scary if something goes wrong. There is too much that can go wrong. If something goes wrong with Monero privacy the entire project could die. Your investment could go to zero in one day.

Dash also has way more going on with its governance DOA and treasury. They are voting for real people to represent the network so Dash can buy physical property. The profits will be used to buy Dash and burn it, creating upward buy pressure.
