I think the rise of Monero over Bitcoin is a very positive sign. Since it has privacy, the government absolutely cannot stand the fact that it exists, and therefore, institutions don't want to touch it. This means the "number go up", "to the moon", and "compliance", shmucks are all driven away in horror and you are left with the real core who want to see a better money in a digital world. If that sounds interesting, you might want to listen to "darknet Market Maximalism" a manifesto by xenu. You can listen to the audio version of it on YouTube.
