TRX Bitcoin maxi says he bought first XMR, argues AI will choose monero over bitcoin
A self-described bitcoin maxi posting on r/CryptoCurrency says he bought his first XMR and is buying more, citing privacy and a belief that AI agents will choose monero rather than bitcoin as a store of value. He states bitcoin remains 80% of his portfolio and that the Binance hack prompted him to look into monero more deeply.
