Regarding altcoins, I’ve been thinking about privacy for a long time, and then I stumbled upon this rant, which sums it up nicely: [![](https://forum.mustachianpost.com/uploads/default/original/2X/6/6f91ada550cf22b54225f1ee985ed343768f5520.jpeg "Bitcoin will be regulated to hell (Monero Chads report in!)") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ak5TFr26BaE) In short, Bitcoin and Ethereum are not truly private. The most popular truly private option is Monero. Now think about it: when push comes to shove, will people want to hold a crypto currency, which ownership thereof can be traced back to them? The allure of physical gold is that you can just hide it and nobody will know you have it. This is not true for Bitcoin. > **[Luke's Webpage](https://lukesmith.xyz/articles/monero-and-other-privacy-coins/)** > > Introduction Me. I am Luke Smith and this is my webpage.
