There was an interesting Q & A to /from Nick Szabo regarding Szabo's thoughts on Monero. Many, myself included, believe Szabo is Sathoshi Nakamoto.
Szabo's answer shocked me as I have been one who believes in the virtue of BTC but has questioned the virtue of most other coins and know of no token I would invest in.
Here's what Szabo was asked and answered:
As someone that values Mr. Szabo's opinions on all things crypto as well as law, I have to consider that Mr. Szabo has considered this cryptocurrency carefully ( his response immediately after the above exchange confirms that when he is not confident of his answer to a question, he says so ).
I for one will be looking into swapping a small bit of BTC holdings for Monero when the next buy signal hits.
