Huh. I had no idea Monero was that active. Pretty damn cool. I would be fine with Monero being priced against a Bitcoin standard. Seems the core of BTC doesn't want payments on the L1 and scaling is a problem on L2's at the moment. Monero is an obvious choice in that case, since Bitcoin is taking the role of SoV.

Pretty much the only coin used to purchase gigs and things online nowadays.
