On its own I never recommend Monero because you will lose purchasing power. I only recommend Monero as a privacy tool. For example receive in Monero and immediately make an atomic swap, or when you are going to spend make a swap from bitcoin to Monero and spend. But it is not economical.

legend! ty — very insightful 💯☺️👌

Can you recommend any good non-scam no-kyc Lightning <> Monero exchanges?
