Why you hold it? 

[MoonIsBlue]

nobody likes to pay their taxes

[Atmintan]

Why you hold it? 

I hold it because it is the best anonymous coin and it has a good community and GPU miners can contribute to it.

[devollito]

For me monero is the best privacy coin so far. I have been following their community from the first time monero created and no wallet. Did you try monero ? When you send monero coin to someone you can not track it again. Its totally vanish and people need that privacy.

[Febo]

Why you hold it? 

Because is one or rare coins that will stay after big crypto cataclysm or a Cryptogeddom.  

Why?

Because Monero have real world use. Its nontransparent ledger helps you with keep private your financial datas with partners you are working with in everydays life. When you go to store buy a bread or in bar buying a drink. Bar Waiter cant see how much money you have and where you get it from. And that is only right thing.

Why you hold it? 

Now it does not make sense to keep this coin, as the price of it falls every day. Personally, I have already sold it, I do not want to incur losses every day and waste my nerves.

[bobo012]

Why you hold it? 

I personally like it, it has good community, it is anonymous and it is resisting asic domination. Also it has good developers and good track record and fair initial distribution.

Why you hold it? 

many reasons people hold monero coins to keep, this coin has been marketed long enough and the results are amazing ... monero already got full trust from the holder, are you still doubt with this coin?
what do you think

[chaosfourever]

I dont hold it. It is sorda crappy and outdated in a lot of ways. That is why I hold Deeponion. Its better in a lot of ways and will be strong this year. Suggest you look into it instead.

[Maglaver]

Privacy coins will be valuable in future. Hiden transactions will be desirable for various reasons.
Monero already has a reputation and today's price is attractive for investors.

[pey]

I don't think people hold it because of tax or privacy, they are very little group of people, most people hold it because they think it will rise due to the its privacy.

[thepo1m]

I think Monero is the best privacy coin in the space, and sine there is huge demand for privacy,people would like to use what would help them to protect their identity. The concern I have with the projects is that the Asic war is getting into with Bitman team do not worth it at all.

[Milansilver7]

this is the reason why I love monero. violations of privacy by governments, corporations, or individuals become part of the law in many countries, and sometimes, constitutional or privacy laws. Almost all countries have laws that, in various ways, privacy, for example, taxation arrangements, and information on delivery. In some countries, the confidentiality of individuals may be contrary to the rules of free speech, and some legal provisions established by public information identifiers may be considered private in other countries.

I now hold Monero ever since they did a great job combatting ASICs. They proved to be successful with forking and disabling all the monero cryptonight ASICs out there. That for me shows potential of a team willing to adapt and overcome challenges. Surely there will be more development to come from this active team.

I'm confident monero value will shoot up.

[Mohondoa]

Beside monero have good privacy, it's the most best future coin. And today a lot miner want to mining it. I believe popularity monero will be able to match ethereum even bitcoin. So i will hold it for long term.

[Tutankrypto]

I'm not a big fan of Monero , I have nothing to hide and I like to be able to look at the transaction and address information and it should be public.

Since you have nothing to hide, please be fair and upload the following documents on this thread.
- Your bank and credit cart statement
- Your national ID or passport + selfie
- And your street adress.

Everyone will agree that you have nothing to hide.

[JuniAiko]

With so many other projects also introducing privacy features, including WanChain, and even Stellar, and what not, to enable private channels and transactions -- on top of the other features that they also offer + business partnerships and some even actual real-world adoption, I wonder what makes Monero appealing?

It does have a good brand name and recognition though, being the first market driver in privacy, and a pretty substantial community base.

I'm still not quite sure if I would be putting more into XMR though at the moment. But would love to hear what you guys think.

[NeuroticFish]

Since you have nothing to hide, please be fair and upload the following

You forgot some things from your list, so I'll help:

* A list of valuable goods at your home and at your safe deposits if you have any.
* A list with all your cryptocoins you have and the proof you've paid all the taxes for them.

[JuniAiko]

What you guys are proposing doesn't make sense actually.
I think there are a lot of individuals who do not have anything to hide "with regards to their transaction habits", and it should be quite obvious that he was referring to this rather than what belongings he has at home, etc.

Context -- is important to realise.

So if your transaction habits indicate to your drug addict neighbor that you are hodling 2k in BTC, and he and his buds really need their fix, you're happy he can see that with a copy/paste and a click?

Context -- data is agnostic and what people do with it can't be dictated by your naivety. If you don't want it in the hands of bad guys, you don't want it on a db that has a backdoor and you certainly don't want it on a public ledger anyone can read. If you are counting on criminals never linking you to an address, you are counting on analytics never progressing (though they are quite advanced now and linkages are most certainly possible to all but those who are mercilessly performing opsec--of course those people would gladly use a private ledger to save them the time/effort/odds-of-a-mishap).
