I think in terms of investment these should Be good investments with research of course. The success of both monero and zcash shows how much anonymity means to people. I feel like I missed out on zcash but pivx and monero could be good investments? Im really looking for any crypto that promises anonymity. Surely there will be developers creating these and probably even some out of the 700 odd currencies out there that have this and are really cheap just now as they've had no exposure. Do you think investing in a coin based on the fact it promises anonymity is an ok risk?
XMR is still a great buy at the moment with no rise that has happened. There was a pump that happened but was quickly replaced by a pretty brutal dump to to $40-50 level and staying there at the moment. Price of XMR compared to 6 months ago only increased like 30% which isn't crazy at all.
When the government really tries to keep an eye on everyone's savings they will dig into bitcoin addresses as well. As much as bitcoin is pseudoanonymous there will still be ways to track people down sa your balances and transactions are public. Monero will be a hiding safe haven then.
