Monero managed to gain a lot of interest from crypto enthusiasts.

Monero vs. Bitcoin
Now, Diego Salazar, who is an important member of the Monero community, just had an interview with AMBCrypto online publication and discussed Monero compared to the success of Bitcoin.
He was asked whether Monero is set to follow the same pattern as the one of Bitcoin in terms of adoption, he responded that the community hopes that it does.
“Because if this whole mantra and maximalism with Bitcoin continue, despite it being a pretty old broken piece of trash, I think that Bitcoin will suck up a lot of adoption,” he responded.
He also said that the masses would buy BTC, but he made sure to point out the fact that there’s a sense of wariness when it comes to altcoins.
“[…] but when they start looking at altcoins, it going to be ‘I’m not going to either mess with this or I’m going to get some Ethereum because it’s number two’ and people talk about it even though it’s also a broken piece of trash,” he said.
