I mean that because bitcoin miners have to invest capital upfront in buying ASICs they are invested in bitcoin's long-term success. If bitcoin fails and they haven't amortized their investment in hardware, they lose their investment.

Whereas someone mining with their CPU/GPU doesn't care about a specific coin. If the coin they are mining fails, they can simply switch to another coin and keep mining, or even use their GPUs to train AI or whatever.

>  that may becomes useless if bitcoin fails

I don't get what you mean here? Bitcoin's difficulty adjustment algo means if large mining ops stop mining, because bitcoin fails then CPU mining may again be viable. Its not one or the other. Maybe I misunderstand you.

So what are the problems with Monero?

To that I'd add Monero's anti-ASIC stance. Bitcoin is protected by a most of capital investment (mining hardware) that may becomes useless if bitcoin fails. Monero doesn't have such moat as it uses general purpose hardware.
