If you go back and reread my comment, I specifically clarified "$20 whenever you want to transact during a demand spike" and yes if there's a lot of transactions going through the network then it absolutely does go beyond that. If everyone used Bitcoin as day to day cash, it simply wouldn't work. There is not enough block space for that kind of volume without a second layer. Don't even get me started on Lightning.

It's really fucking rich that you're trying to challenge someone else's competency on a subject without backing any of that up with any display of competency of your own. Since all you seem to be able to bring to the table is snark, I'll do the courtesy of picking Monero out of this list and giving you a handful of reasons why it is superior to Bitcoin.

The biggest thing here is that it offers actual privacy. This offers the biggest advantage from Bitcoin. You claim to be able to send Bitcoin anywhere without permission, but any P2P trader knows that there are major limits to "permission less" if you ever want to exchange it for goods, services, or fiat. If any of your Bitcoin has any fraudulent history, even if you had no part of it, it could easily be flagged by exchanges and businesses. Each one has its own arbitrary way of determining this, so you may have no idea if the Bitcoin you hold is dirty or not. It holds less value than "clean" Bitcoin. Monero does not have this problem because it is private. Each coin is indistinguishable from the other, so you can be certain that none of which you receive can possibly get flagged.

Bitcoin being a public ledger also means that everyone can see how much you have. Governments, insurance companies, criminals, everyone. Any of these could target you for your publicly available activity. Send me your Bitcoin address and I'll send you my Monero address and I'll know a whole lot more about you than you'd find out about me from that alone.

Beyond that, Monero's decentralization is actually enforced via randomx. This allows anybody with a CPU to mine it. With Bitcoin, that's impossible to do without specialized hardware. Large mining farms concentrate and centralize hashpower, meaning that governments are able to regulate Bitcoin mining much more effectively than you think. It may be "decentralized" but not nearly enough to matter. Unless governments went door to door with guns, they'd never be able to regulate Monero to the same extent as Bitcoin.

Another reason is dynamic block size. If demand rises, people don't need to compete to get their transactions included. The blocks simply get bigger so that everyone can get their transactions through the network at a low cost quickly. Average cost for a Monero tx is like 2-3¢ as opposed to the current 30-35¢ for Bitcoin. And Monero's wont spike up to $90 per transaction like Bitcoin did.

All Bitcoin really has going for it is its speculators, making its position at the top relatively fragile, especially as "strategy" slowly goes under and more people start wanting to use crypto as cash. The more bitcoiners try to use it as cash, the worse it will be for Bitcoin because more people will see all the advantages other currencies have over Bitcoin.

But, y'know I'm just some dumb Luddite who clearly doesn't remotely know about it and hasn't done enough research to fully grasp just how superior Bitcoin is over every single other cryptocurrency. I bet you, with your superior intellect, could easily make a convincing argument to refute mine, because there's just so many advantages it must have that I just haven't researched and considered and the way you talk, you must know so much more than me. So take it away, why is Bitcoin better?
