Well, do they need to scale? 🤔
The larger scale transactions are impossible to effectively hide, anyway, and need the higher security and liquidity of Bitcoin. The only other options are stablecoins or fiat and those have their own inherent risks.
But that doesn't mean that a smaller space or use case can't include something other than Bitcoin as one of multiple options. For example, to maintain monetary velocity and promote a circular economy.
If I were to bring in Monero to the Nostr market, it would stay moving and get passed around **precisely because people like you refuse to take it**. Intra-Nostr commerce would increase with Monero because the people willing to receive it are inclined to spend it, so it keeps moving. Monero Bros won't zap you a piconero and be like #generationalwealth.
