The difference here is that Monero is it's own, stand-alone currency with powerful privacy features
Literally no difference. You're nit picking because you have XMR bags. It's so funny watching you walk around in circles around this. You're literally giving up custody of Bitcoin to hold a shitty asset that's heading to zero.

To be fair, a cashu ecash mint does suffer from a single point of failure, in a way that monero does not. I don't know enough about monero to say whether a fedimint with something like 7 guardians is closer to the cashu side of things or the monero side. But I think it's a valid point that mints are generally susceptible to servers going offline while that's not really a concern with something like monero.

That's an argument for spectrums of decentralized. You can say a network is more decentralized or less decentralized than another network.
At the end of the day, they're the same thing. A DLT network.

No you just don't like my responses because they don't fit your narrative. As seen in your strawman reply instead of a real response.

Yeah bro post more fake screenshots of fake quotes from politicians to try to defend your XMR bags and bash privacy tech.

Dude, take a step back and calm down. We don't have to both love the same custodial tools to be reasonable and actually have conversations.

I've responded at length to that, many times. It's an asinine take that is dangerous and disingenuous and will lead to people hating Bitcoin because they think Bitcoin lost their money when it was really a malicious mint or a gov rug pull.

Literally no difference? You can take custody of your Monero, and the network is decentralized, but ecash tokens are without value once the mint is taken over.

You take custody of the ecash notes too. How much value is xmr when a 51% attack happens and the network is useless?

You realize with fedimint, it is a decentralized network?
